Those are the boards we use for the S14 and work well.

Expensive when bought in small amounts so the group buy will be a good thing.

How is this going and how many more do we need to sell for a cheap price.

We may get a few to help with price purchase. Have you got the address table yet?

Cheers

Ken

Yeah, these boards work in a few cars.

I bought them from Grid Japan and will be contacting them about a discount once I have got mine in the car and working so that you guys won't have a board doing nothing.

Have not had time to pull the BIN file from my car yet :(

ecl,

The main benefits on a stock 34 will be the ability to raise the boost cut threshold, remove the speed limiter, and retune the factory maps to suit australian fuel and conditions, typical gains on standard boost just with tuning are around 10 rwkw.

I am interested but need more info on the tuning as I don't know if anyone in Cairns could tune it and would a control handpiece like the Power FC be needed?

Sorry about my ignorance but this is all new to me.

My Stagea is currently standard but soon due a 3inch turbo back exhaust. FMIC and Turbo upgrade.

Hi guys,

Sorry for the late reply.

Finally managed to pull the ROM file from the stock ECU (thanks 666DAN & also DUMHEAD from silviansw.com).

Now all we need is the address file for the rom or try to crack it.

Yes this board will, according to GRiD Japan, work with S14/15/ER34(RWD, 25T)/U12/C34.

I do not have the rom files for the S14/15/U12/C34 though.

I've attached the ER34 manual BIN file I pulled from the stock ECU.

Ed,

Will you still be able to get me one of these? I can help out in locating the address maps. However it is going to be impossible unless we have different binary files to compare with.

Try extracting the Auto one and see the difference. Fuel maps should diff?

Ben, do you have a laptop with 9 pin serial?

The cable needs 9 pin serial to work.

Then we can pull the 34 GTT auto maps.

Give me a buzz.

Ricky, I've put up the manual map's. See if you can crack it ;)

So far when I apply the ECR33 address table to the 34 BIN the only thing that is the same is the rev limiter.

7050 rpm.

the badbiki daughterboard pictured wont work with other R33/R34 (non ER34) ecus which have a Hitachi H8 chip. these need a special daughterboard which houses the H8 chip and decoder circuitry.

i am able to disassemble and create address files from binary images (things like K constant, RPM and speed cuts if not in the rom editor ADR files are a bit more tricky but not impossible)

that one posted i see maps around 1200- 2800. the VQ is 1200-127F

what is the main chip number on the ER34 ecu? ie what type of CPU

yikes that was quick. yeah i need the numbers (top row) on the big chip of the ecu to do the disassembly. you can see on the second pic there are a row of holes which you solder the daughterboard to

I knew there had to be a good reason why I was stock-piling these bloody R34 ECU's :D

OK the big chip says: LM702D01J

Pretty sure that's it, as it's hard to read

Other printed lines read-

A12-212 750

816B100

the A12 number is the JECS identifcation code. the bottom number would be serial number

the top one. LM = manufacturer code of which there are about 20 listed for LM on chipdir. i think it is probably Hitachi as most Nissan ecus are but could be anything. SR20 ecus are badged JECS but are Mitsubishi chips for example

how accurate are those digits? i know they get hard to read. best with magnifying class under fluro light at some wierd angle to read the writing properly. at worst wont if i cant get it disassembled wont get constants (rpm, k const, speed limit) only tables/maps from doing a rom compare

I'm 99% sure....I did grab the fluoro and magnifying glass :rofl:

The chip also has that "UJ" logo that's in the centre of the circuit board printed on it.

Whoops just figured it...Unisia Jecs! So it's a Hitachi chip

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
