Hello All

I have a 1995 GTS-t RB25DET Auto

with th following mods

3'' full exhaust with dump pipe

GCG 450hp Hi flow Turbo

Pod Filter

Hybrid FMIC

Splitfire Coils

FCD

10 PSi Boost

18 degrees timing

My tuner cant seem to get much more then 210hp at the wheels

my ecu is doing the Rich and Retard thing its driving me nuts

What is my options for a ECU for the AUTO or do i go for a full ecu and do a manual conversion.

I would prefer to keep the Auto cause its nice to drive (my missus has to drive it too....with kids....)

I was hoping with startard injectors to hit 250-300hp at the wheels

but it seems that the damm ecu wont let me.

I have been searching the forums for weeks trying to find a clear cut answer to no avail.

Guys i know someone out there can help me

no matter what it still has to retain drivibilty.

HELLLLLLLLLLLLP!

Champ get a compresion test some thing is wrong

i get 242rwhp @ 8psi

mods i have

3' exhaust with hiflow cat hiflow turbo

pod

fmic with plumb back

eboost 2 at 10psi 250rwhp all day

tho my dyno guy was very suprised

you need a g reddy e manage with ignision harnes there is a good thread on hear

sorry wrong message quoted.

Can you point me to that thread mate I cant find much with the search funtionalty

cheers

Speak to a guy on these forums called toshi

He remaps rb25 ecu's. This means he will write a new map for your standard computer so you will retain factory auto settings.

cost is something like $300 + dyno time from memory :blink:

he has done heaps of ECUs and knows what he is doing

Cheers:)

some thing is wrong with your dyno results

they are soo low i hav less mods than you and push wat you are after without an ecu auto as well that is y your thread interests me

was the car in second gear wen dynoed?

is it serviced much?

is it a good operater?

how long have you had it?

he is running a bigger turbo... there is probably nothing wrong at all.

@ 10psi his bigger turbo is more than likely moving more air, spinning out the ECU more than yours.

I wouldnt worry about the figure at all.

Get an SAF-C II onto it and go from there

Dont you think 210HP not KW is a little low for the mods he has

and will a bigger turbo lower the over all HP

I thought they just lagged more

210 hp =150 kw @rw

sorry i think some thing is up with that

Actually you are right on the money the more airflow is maxing out the ECU

I have pretty much decided to get my factory ECU remapped when the nismo injectors turn up that way i dont have to dick around with splicing looms and such and everything will work smiko i'm hoping for 230 to 240 rwkw fingers crossed and it will still look factory i'll keep everyone posted.

Thanks for pointing me to that e-manage thread mad34 and the factory ECU IS the way to go.CEF11E cheers mate its gunna save a lot of heartache

Miller, the stock ecu sucks, they are not all equal.

Nothing is wrong with his car.

plus its auto also... you loose a good 10rwkw in stock form... more power you put in the more your going to loose :P

but yeah, get some management and then re-asses whats going on as currently you cant really get a good idea.

If something is wrong you could spend ages looking and not find it as there are too many things with a bigger turbo and stock ECU.

Get tuning in there and post up the results.

I'd be interested to see what comes of it.

    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
    • And now the bloody flapper is jammed slightly open. Lazy as all f**k in 3rd-5th (very hard to convince it to make much boost before you run out of revs), but will make 12 psi in 1st, which shouldb't be possible with a 5 psi spring and controller set to <10 psi. Methinks I'm lucky it jammed where it did, rather than fully closed. It's actually a well weird situation. Careful examination of what's happening in the back of that housing when the gearbox comes out and all the other stuff (injectors, AFM retune) is supposed to be done, next week.
