Anyone Had An Ecu Remap Done By Dr Drift?

Hmm also intereted to hear about some rb25's...

[siddr20]

looks like no one has done it yet lol..

The Remapped RB25 ECU is the newest additon to the family... I have two projects nearly completed which will both have remapped ECU's... The end result is that it can be tuned exactly like I have been doing the RB20 ECUs for 6 years now. I did do a few of the RB25 ECUs a few years ago, but never knew where/how to the ECU done... till now!

I'll post details up as soon as they happen

Sounds good, looking forward to seeing some results.

Jeff from The Speed lab did my rb25 with R32 ecu (the easier and cheaper way then rechipping a 33 ecu) and i believe jeff said sam also does them.

Couldnt be happer with the result... my 33 ecu is now used as a paperweight

[esky_mad]

sent you a pm on ns.com but never got a reply

[Simon-S14]

me? or dr drift?

if me i cant say i got one mate lol, resend if so

[siddr20]

Dr-Drift looking forward for those details..

Simon-R32- Did you have any problems with the r32 ecu running on an rb25? Also what needed it to changed/hacked/re-wired etc to make it work for an r25 engine?

[Simon-S14]

no probs what so ever, plugs straight in, however the 20 ecu cannot run the VCT, was no real issue for me as with the remap done, timing changed, boost raised it still has bucket loads of torque down low anyway!

Getting full boost at 2500 rpm, makes 215 rwkw on 0.9 bar with stock turbo. Drives like a dream, smooth clean power with awesome responce!

[siddr20]

Wow thats hectic.. Good to hear

I will see what dr-drift says..

Could be cheaper way with r32 ecu.. hmmm

[Simon-S14]

theres no doubt about it, its the cheaper way as parts are cheaper, rather then the more expensive parts needed for a 33 ecu.

[Dr_Drift]

We've also done quite a few R32 ecus in R33s... we found the only wiring to be changed for street applications was when running an RB25 loom the idle switch needed to be wired in, only improved. We've also has some good success using the buddy club VTEC controller as a cheap VCT rpm output..

IMHO - Remap the R33 ECU is the best way to go...

[R33silverS2]

very keen on results.. The r32 ecu sounds like an interesting idea also. Yet if Sam nails the 33 ones then that makes for an easy decision.

[Tangles]

we've talked a little in emails DrDrift - but one lingering "concern"

for those on a budget (ie, me) how much roughly for a remap to Stagea automatic ecu?

FYI; pinout on ecu is the same as for an R34GTT, although my 1997 engine is definately a non-Neo........

this is something I'd look at in 12months time or so

[siddr20]

simon- but was your rb25 a series 1 or 2?

I dont think the r32 ecu will work on the series 2..

Dr-Drift, when you coming to sydney?

[Simon-S14]

the 32 ecu WILL work on series 2.

Mine is a S1

Sam: have you got more info about the idle switch wiring? i havent done this and mine doesnt idle as it should some times

[PM-R33]

the 32 ecu WILL work on series 2.

Mine is a S1

Sam: have you got more info about the idle switch wiring? i havent done this and mine doesnt idle as it should some times

So it definetely works on the series II?? No problem with the different ignitor between series I and series II??

[Dr_Drift]

R33 ones are nailed! We are using the same boards as used to be in ash's R31 RB25 which was fully programable 5 years ago! We've only just been able to source the boards in the last few months...

Non-Neo Stagea is same price as R33, and AT is no problems, e-mail for quotes please.

Simon - Check the pinouts from R32 to R33 you will see the differences there.... I think PaulR33 has it on his page somewhere???

[R31Nismoid]

Good news about getting the board that was so ellusive... and died

And that was all 4-5 years ago now

[Dr_Drift]

Thanks to Darkhalf (aka Nistune) that board has been revived as well
