Does anyone here has any experience/knowledge about the Impul Hi-Power Control Unit ECU for the ER34?

Saw a unit up for sale and wondering what are the difference compared to the stock unit which I'm running now.

it will be a plain remap, so no one can touch it unless they have remap tools for ER34

dr drift in melbourne might be able to sort it out otherwise theres a dude in sydney who can do them (dont know name sorry)

ideally get a locall supproted ECU so you can goto any tuner.

but as far as bang for $ it might be ok, it will have the limits all removed and maybe some more timing.

its probably rich as all hell as well (assumption)

what are you talking about mines computer? lol. why would impul buy a mines computer and re map it? It's a standard nissan computer re-programed by impul. if you are referring to the painted over sticker, that says "nissan re-manufactured ecu" or similar. lol. mines.

personally I think anything over about $100 is too much to pay, unless you know exactly what it was tuned for, in which case $300 would be ok. but you are far better off just buying a pfc or similar.

If its cheap, add a second had SAFC (either series 1 or 2) too it to ensure it isnt overly rich (or lean)

dunno, bit of a hit and miss afair with tuned standard ecu's

Hey 8110,

I realise this thread is a little old though maybe you havent yet made any decisions. Heres attached a pic of my ECU that came in my car. I also have a neo afc and running 9psi as we have some detonation issues im told. (new to this) the only other mod is a blitz 3" catback. now although the dyno's arent accurate and a normal day up here is relatively hot (32+ degrees C) only acheived 162.5kW im looking into a powerFC as my tuner tells me this ecu is in a foreign language an doesnt seem as though he can do anything with it to further modify. Now i'd rather know that my ecu isnt limiting my cars drivability in anyway before i go ahead with future mods.

Hope this helps

cheers :)

Is that for a GTR? Or for something else?

I got 156 AWKW (not on a good day), on my first dyno with a MINES ecu.

After tuning with a PowerFC and high flow CAT and panel filter, adjustable cam gears >240RWKW :(

I'd recommend getting rid of the non-tunable ECU and getting a PowerFC or similar.

Mentioned it before but regrap the plugs and if youve got det issues its enhanceing the timig thats ok cause safc works well at retarding the timing down low.

To answer your question it would not be limiting your cars ability to would be a more aggressive tune compared to stock, the problem might be the tuner too. get someone to check your timing it should be 15 (from memory) and it might be your fuel pump shitting itself.

It really could be a million things but in my opinion it will NOT be the ECU.

But in saying that a power fc is the best upgrade option atm and I have just bought that, they are shit expensive but bang for buck they are the best increase in power the for sale section has a few for view now. If you want to go faster this is the key!

      R34 GTT air noise?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Boost leak or exhaust leak. Boost could be from anywhere, including manifold/plenum gaskets. Exhaust is frequently head to manifold gasket or from manifold to turbo gasket. Often caused by missing nuts or broken studs.

      Wheel offset has me confused.

      Check for spacers on the front, in case they've been pushed out a little to try to match he rears better.

      I should clarify that the previous owner put the wheels on, so Im not entirely sure what he bought. I was searching the Rota page and found these two as the only matches. It did not occur to me that perhaps they sell these wheels with different offsets. I guess the best way to solve this is to take the wheels off and measure them from the inside to be sure.

      The offset doesn't really have anything to do with dish directly. I mean it kind of does but it also doesn't, it's only tangenial. The offset is purely how much offset (get it) the mounting face is from the CENTER of the width of the rim. I.e, the mounting face would be directly in the middle of the 9.5inches if it was a 18x9.5 ET0 rim. Given it is a +12 rim, the mounting face is 12mm further away from the center (to the outside of the car). Your fronts are +30, so the mounting face is 30mm further away from the center (to the outside of the car). I would wager this doesn't look right, because most skylines generally have the same with guards front to back. So I'd think your fronts look significantly more sunken in than your rears. I'd wager by about 18mm, or so.

      My '96 r33 Skyline has Rota GTR, 18 x 9.5 inch, ET30 on the front and Rota GTR-D, 18 x 9.5 inch, ET12 on the rear. (Put on by previous owner) The 12mm offset is throwing me for a loop. Is it due to the "deep dish" design of the wheel that the offset it so low? Or is it actually that low on the rear normally? If I were buying a set of new wheels, could I put 30mm offsets on the rear and reasonably expect them to fit? I have GTR Brembos and 370Z rotors (355mm/350mm) if it matters. Thank you.
