Hey all,,

The ECU ive currently got is on temporary loan till i get a new one. Im not planning on getting a powerfc anytime soon so i was just looking at getting another ECU. ive found a Mines ECU from ebay. The seller says it runs but when tested in his car runs rich. Can this ECU be reset just like stock R32 GTR ECU's? The same method by disconnecting the negative battery terminal and pumping the brake pedal?

Here is the link: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/R32-GTR-Mines-upgra...1QQcmdZViewItem

cheers people!

The Mines ECU was most likely programmed to suit specific mods on the vehicle it was fitted to, therefore unless your car features the exact same mods, its not surprising that it will run rich etc.

Mines ecu's cant just be reset.

damn. Ive contacted the seller and he said he may have a standard computer lying around somewhere. Thanks Blitz!

My GT-R came from Japan with a Mines ECU installed. It actually ran OK and was generically tuned to support standard low cost mods like mild boost increase (boost restrictor removed) and exhaust upgrade. I didn't experience detonation on BP Ultimate fuel.

The ECU is difficult to reprogram as Mines tend to bit a big dob of glue over the chip and socket arrangement.

    • It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.
    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
