I bought a chip off armbrusb on this forum......

Unsoldered the origional.. got a cradle.. soldered it in... slotted new chip in..... once the computer got used to it BIG DIFFERENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......

pulls higher up the rev range....

boosts sooner

better on the petrol

sounds nicer

etc etc

My estimate pushing about 20+kw with it!!

a couple of hrs work (and alot of sware words)

and a $50 chip

i heard he has more :D

best $50 ever spent!!!!!!!!!!!!

it could feel better but who knows how the car is running.

i would put it on a dyno to be 100% worth the $60 or so dollars

what area are u from i'm from parramatta just waiting on armbush to reply

hmm I got the chip in and went for a test run after ecu reset

problem seems to be over about 5psi and/or 3000rpm it splutters like a b*tch and wont get going couldnt really get past 3Krpm dam

pls tell me the ecu takes a while to get used to it or something mr ed32 what are your thoughts??

well shes a bit messy on boost to say the least dunno what the deal is, went for two drives and seems the same.....backfiring and spluttering basically crappy over 2500/3000rpm

maybe the ecu reset didnt work, i unplugged the battery while doing the ecu and pushed brake pedal in for a minute or so

need some ideas mr ed32!?! or armbrusb?!? u had stock turbo right mr ed32 yah?

maybe wait till mine works hey flukey.....

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
