I just bought an eeprom programmer off ebay that can be ussed for rechipping ecus for nissan and other general eproms. I think it can be ussed to burn chips to get the police channel plus others on standard cb's? The only problem I am having is understanding the instructions for downloading the programs to run the thing. Can anybody help me as I have very little IT knowledge.

Over time I have collected several maps off the net and have also downloaded a few off my cars. I have the dr drift map for 32's and also mines, blitz and a few others for gtr's. I am not sure yet if I can use my data display to download maps from CA18's yet but I know it works on R32 gtr's and gtsts. I just thought if I get this up and running it might save some of the club member who are on a budget like me some money over buying power fc's that don't retard your timing or adjust fuel mixture if your engine begins to knock (so I have been told). Even if you just need a speed limit removed there is a program called rom editor which everybody seems to use for rechipping that makes the process easy.

I don't really see how a $2 chip is worth $300 with a dyno run if the chip isn't modified after the post installation dyno run.

I am not a cowboy thats going to go out selling chips. I have just wanted to have a go at tuning my own car for a while. Its been something that intrests me and if another person changes afm's or needs a speed limit removed they can easily have one burnt. I mainly need at the moment so I can run Z32 afm's on my smashed gtr since I sold the standard afm's. The car only needs to have the colour on the outside now.

Once I know the programmer works I will go out and buy a data logging wide band 02 kit from a place in the ACT. Sydneykid has bought and tested one of their units and seemed impressed.

Any help would be much appriciated! If you have a chipped ecu or any maps let me know if you want to share them with me. Expecially if you are running bigger injectors or n1 turbo on a rb26 with a good tune.

mate im an electronics engineer, and i can tell you now, if youv never done any electronics before, this is a hell of a way to start off! this is extremly dangerous in that re flashing an ic with the wrong info can and probably will make it useless. JUST A WARNING

This is being investigated by my lawyer regarding intellectual copywrite

I suggest no-one copies anything from someone else and re-sells/gives to someone else

doing so will result in an unfortunate instant ban as we cant have SAU involves with legal implications

cheers

      I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?

      I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.

      STOP GOOGLING FAB9 MAKE BORG WARNER EFR KITS FOR THE NC. THEY PACKAGE AN EFR 6758. DO NOTHING ELSE. CAPS INTENTIONAL. THE BEST RESPONSIVE SETUP EXISTS FOR YOUR CAR, AND HAS BEEN PROVEN FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW. IN B4 "BUT I WANT EVEN MORE RESPONSE, IN A SIMPLER, MORE RELIABLE PACKAGE" WHICH IS A LS.
