RB25Neo/30

A bit stuck, done a search but just confusing the f**k out of me. 

Got an RB25Neo/30 in my R32. Using the rb20 loom, got a coil conversion loom and rewired the injectors. 

When it comes to the ECU, what can I actually run? From what I have worked out there is a GTRLink that I can use as it's the same ecu plug. 

Found a Vipec V88 for a neo, that won't plug in though will it? How do I get around this as it's a good price.

 

cheers.

Hi mate

you only have 2 sort of easy choices here.

1. Remove the loom, and install a RB25 NEO loom to run with the Neo Vipec.
2. Get a GTRLink / Vipec. These fit all GTR models, and the R32 and R33 GTS-T. 

Any other way will only be a huge bitch.

You could get yourself a brand new wiring specialties Neo harness. Would cost about $1k but then you have a new loom. 

Personally, since later model Neos have fairly new looms in then, just grab a factory one of those nice and cheap

When you say get a GTRLink/Vipec which Vipec is this that will work?

Vipec and Link are the same thing / same hardware. Vipec is actually gone now, absorbed back into Link. 

Vipec "V" series = Link G4
Vipec "i" series = Link G4+

You want the model of vipec or link that fits the GTR. It also fits the RB20. (It's a one ECU fits all)

The GTRLink / GTRVipec fits everything except for the Neo as that has a different plug.

Damn this one fits a neo, that's a no go.

 

Thanks heaps mate.

There is no RB25 Nistune so if you have an RB20 Nistune that will work although it will not control your VCT.

If you get a Neo ecu and loom you can get a GTT  LinkECU to put inside the Neo case which would be ideal...it can control your VCT and with a solenoid better control boost.

I have the same dilemma with a rb20de cefiro. It's auto and I want to keep it auto. Can I use a link rb26rb20 plugin? Do they have a built-in map sensor to do away with afm?

I don't know where the auto ecu is on your cefiro. If it is in the main engine ecu then no you will not be able to use the GTR Link. Why don't you get a wire in Link instead and yes you can use a map sensor with it.

Do you know how to find out? Will it be in the same location behind kick panel where main ecu is? 

I have an rb25 det manual loom and ECU, should I fit that and get a manual valve body for the auto to do away with the auto electrics? Then I could fit a plugin ECU .

I'm running a 2530 neo in my r32 gts4, basically had to do a small amount of soldering for tps and idle valve and coil harness. Add in a wire for vct
Can use pretty much any plug in ecu for r33 r32 gtst or gtr. Some need an injector pin swaped around and if using GTr or 32 gtst ecu need a way to control vct, so rpm window switch or if using an r32 gtst nistune then use the feature pack and it let's you control it like stock
I use an adaptronic select on mine personally.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
