normally carry some changeovers in stock, but just waiting on new batch, should be here any day. Can also modify your actual ecu if preferred but takes a few days as I don''t have the smd work station yet. Normally looking around 2-3 hours drive in drive out for thorough tune with basic mods, obviously cam timing etc can take longer...

Sorry to bring up and old thread, but I was wondering if you are putting a z32 ecu into an rb25 and u get the 16 bit version you need a daughterboard that I know and then would u need two chips in order to run the tune? Cause thats what I have to do caus eI got the z32 ecu that is 16 bit so they told me I need two chips in oder to run it.

You should be able to use a 16 bit Z32 daughterboard to run an RB25 still since the ECU pinouts are the same, Nissan upgraded to a different processor (probably because of the Motorola/Hitachi lawsuit stopped them using the HD6303 MCU midway through production of Z32)

I would lean towards the 8 bit Z32 because more VVT control parameters have been defined if you wish to tune those. However I went through the 16 bit Z32 ROM last month and identified some more parameters to adjust since a few owners run nistune with these

hey im in the middle of doing the rb20 ecu with a rb25 tune chip on a rb25 but ive connected the computer and the car runs fine but no tacho just wondering if you need to change the tacho wiring on the ecu from pin 7 to pin 5 to suit the rb20 ecu

Maybe not that cheap @ approx $2000. :laugh:

should be half that, as of late have been doing the Z32 remps for $800 drive in drive out if you supply the z32 ecu ( or $950 if i supply it, as they are $150 at any wreckers)

there quite a bit of mis-information about exactly what needs dong but it is actually very simple and only requires simple pin swaps and the addition of a 02 sensor wire.

IIRC I was thinking that that the 2K would include wideband etc etc.

Sure only requires a few pin swaps easy as.

EXCEPT the fuel temp sensor which needs a resistor wired to chassis ground. If this isn't done you get rich idle afr's and code 42.

Oh and cut wire at pin 33 or your exhaust temp light will come on with your air con.

Cheers.

Guys I'm a little lost here , are you saying that a modded R33 GTS25T computer can be made programmable and tuned via the Consult port just like any after market computer ?

I was under the impression that ROM chips had to be burnt and erased and reburnt time after time .

If all is now good is the software available for anyone to use ?

Sure there are daughterboards out there that allow you to use nistune boards in the r33 ecu it's just that they're a liitle exy.

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
