Ok who out there also has a wolf 3d v4+ installed in their r33 gts25t???

Well i do, and as usual with aftermarket ecu's i have a problem with starting. When i go to start it, the ecu wants to go into turbo timer mode (which obviously doesn't let the engine start).

I've been told by my tuner that i have a voltage drop from the immobliser. I've tried taking the alarm out...haha. I've also tried 12v straight to the ecu bypassing everything else, still relayed from a key turn. Still wants to go into turbo timer mode.

The only way i can get it started is leaving the key in the ON position for about 6seconds then starting it, and it usually starts.

Does anyone else have this problem and if so how did you fix it... oh and yes, the ecu's turbo timer mode is turned OFF.

Any info much appeciated thanks

Oh and by the way, once she gets up and going......it gets going :)

Packy,

I have a Wolf 3D V4 ECU on a 3SGTE - yes different motor but however .... I have had similar symptoms. If you have the Handset - turn off the turbo timer function from the menu - this fixed my prob.

I had a HKS stand alone turbo timer connected however at the time and somehow it was conflicting with the Wolf. I've been told before but can't remember now, the Wolf's require a solenoid (no idea which wire) for the turbo timer to function.

It may not fix it but worked for me ...

    • As Duncan mentioned it's likely a remapped ECU, like the the one listed in the link I post earlier:  https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/444260/car/444612/2099320/parts.aspx He quoted 444PS with an unopened engine and twin GT2510s @ 1.1bar boost... sounds about right?
    • That’s great to know. I spent some time looking for info last night but had a hard time finding anything relevant 
    • Ah ok the turbos looked standard when I had a look at the car. Didn’t look it was ever removed but very hard to tell. These are the best photos I have if it helps identify anything.    I know it’s basically impossible to see anything 😅
    • Its only a guess, but it likely doesn't have cams; probably a Z32 Air Flow Meter and slightly larger turbos. It was very common to chip and remap the standard ECU back in those days, but it means you won't be able to modify it further without replacing the ECU 
    • Amazing! Thanks for sending this through. Feel safer knowing a reputable shop worked on the car before I decide to purchase.    Do you know much about how they would have tuned their cars through chips?    From what I know, the car sounds like it has very small cams, the usual exhaust and air filter mods and a chip in the stock ecu. Motor sounds healthy and starts right up with no hiccups or smoke, compression is around 140-145 cold (wasn’t able to test this while it was warm)
