Guys, Standard ECU's cannot be remapped just as they are.

What you need is what the Japanese call ROM Boards. You will need to buy a ROM Board and then have the proper extraction and installation tools to replace the STD ROM Board with your tuned ROM Board. This is what the Japanese refer to as "ROM Tune" ECU's (Mines, Kakimoto, Brain etc....). By doing this your car can be tuned for mods while at the same time retaining all the factory advantages such as fault compensaion, air conditioning, idle control and auxlaries (e.g. R34 GTT Auto Gearbox).

I'm fairly sure this is what Ed is referring to as "Daughterboards". Correct me if I'm wrong please Ed :)

What about a aftermarket ECU, there have been one or two Mines replacemenet (chipped?) ECU's ones flating around in the FS section, if thats all I need then I will pick one up and book myself in :D

this is looking to be delayed a little maybe put back a month. please still register your interest to [email protected] , so far we have about 18people interested.

dont forget leave you car, mods and contact details so i can confirm once a date is set.

Hmmm.... He has a Supra.... I have a Supra.... Sounds very tempting... :)

Now which computer to buy.... :(

only one problem.... the TopSecret Supra is powered by a real engine :D:p:p AN RB26 :(:D:D

Can i ask a question here..... is this bloke suppose to be that good that you feel one of Australia's leading workshops cant do an equivalent job..... is there something he has that we dont that enables him to tune any car that much better then an Aussie tuner???

    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
