i have a remapped ecu for sale. it will work in both series 1 and series 2 manual r33s (for those that think the series 2 have the ignitor built into the ecu, they don't). the person i bought it off had it in a series 1, and i had a series 2 motor in my car.

i tested the AFRs at 11psi on standard turbo, fuel system, with just a turbo back exhaust, pod and fmic. at full throttle they from 12.5 from about 3000rpm and slowly drop to 12.0 by about 3700rpm untill about 5500rpm when they start to drop to 11.4 by redline.

the ecu has had rich and retard removed, speed limiter removed and the rev limit raised to 7500rpm. i ran it in my 33 for about 8 months and never had any problems (on 14psi they go a lot harder than on 11psi despite what people say - most of them have never tried it and are only going off what other people have said). i never got to test the afr's at 14psi because the day i had a lend of a wideband o2 sensor the boost controller stuffed up and wouldn't let me go above 11psi. but when i pulled the spark plugs out after 6 months there was no sign of pinging or running lean at 14psi.

i was going to combine this with a safc to get perfect 12.0 afrs but never got around to it and no longer own the car.

asking $200 + $10 postage (or you can pick it up if you want).

located in gympie, qld

didn't have it on the dyno. just had a lend of a microtec wideband o2 sensor. at the same boost level it made a slightly noticable difference, but the fact that you can wind the boost up means you can boost up to where you would normally hit r&r and then really have some fun.

hi am i right in assuming i could just replace my ecu (series 1 r33 gtst manual) with this ecu and achieve instant power gains over standard?

a small gain yes. i noticed a little bit of a gain. as for an exact figure i'm not sure as i never put it on the dyno with this ecu.

      f**kin' yikes! That insulation is the shittest stuff I have ever seen. You need to do an insurance job on that f**ker, pronto. WRT to the washer cover, I would have said that there'd have to be some at a wrecker, then remembered that it's a BMW, and reasoned that every single wrecked one would have been tailgating and so the front end would be trashed.

      Ok, so I got myself some X1 wheels really cheap to try out, they're a bit different and I like them but they're really narrow (18x8) they are available in staggered 18x8/9 also but really hard to find.  I kinda dig them, but not as much as the F10 19's I usually run, so these go into the wheel pile.         As I mentioned in another thread, I got a new exhaust. It's an off-the-shelf stainless one that fits OH-KAY. I don't love the tips size and how far they come out the back, I think I might cut the tips off and replace with some smaller (~3") ones that don't extend as far. It sounds really good though, I'm not sure if its just in my head but the car feels a little quicker, more responsive.      I fitted an eBay special front lip. Surprisingly it fit perfectly and all holes lined up. Its a little rickety but I haven't put any double sided tape on yet, I want to clean the front bar up where it has scraped the road a lot and fil in the number plate holes (or, get body coloured wrap to cover them - is this a thing?  I'm not sure if I'll leave it gloss or pain it matte. I really like it though, I don't particularly like the front bar without it, I don't really like the M-Sport and to get anything else is just too expensive. That said, I might need a new one now anyway as I dropped the car onto the jack after forgetting to put ramps under the front wheels. It bent a lot and while it did go back to normal after I got the car off the jack, I do fear I have not done it any favours.    Lastly, my headlights died. Different problems in each. They have gotten much dimmer over the past year or so, I put new (uber expensive) OSRAM bulbs in them but to no avail. One of them pointed at the ground and the other just kinda did its own thing with light working sometimes. Yeah, check this 18 year old BMW headlight wire. I reckon I know why they were stuffed.            BTW, the yellow and black is the power to the Xenons. Yikes. I hunted around an researched my options here. I would have loved to just get a replacement harness but not a thing. My car has adaptive headlights, that is they rotate left and right with the steering wheel. Good condition used adaptive xenons were over $700 each, non adaptive were around $400 each, but I couldn't help but think that they're all around 18 years old now, surely they'd have the same problems. So I looked at newer LCI headlights but they were even more expensive and I couldn't confirm that they'd be plug and play with lots of people having lots of opinions so not worth the risk.  I ended up getting brand new Chinese headlights from MARS. They're very close to OEM with only the angel eyes being a bit different. I didnt want crazy turn signals or sharp DRL's or anything. Not my bag.  They're not adaptive, I thought thats a feature I wouldn't really miss. So I coded that out.  The lights are awesome, they look so nice and they take so many years off the car. The angel eyes look great and the headlight brightness is ridiculous. I was so used to the old ones, I didn't realise just how bad they were. The new ones use the OEM bulbs, Xenon ballast and leveller motor which I was happier with. The only issue with them is that the rear cover is held on by SEVEN screws. This will be a nightmare to get to and open when I need to change bulbs.

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      Now that you mention it I can see those too. More subtle. The lighting and low resolution makes it hard to assess super well what's going on but what is visible is bad enough to pull the motor.
