New Plug-in Ecu Coming

[unique1]

further back in here it says that the V66 has 6

cheers mate i lost track there is that many references to the v44, 66 and 88 i dont know whats what lol, i think the vipec site needs to add a v66 and the specs to save all the questions

im gonna be keen for one at $1500 its perfect price, just hope they are easy for most tuners as alot of tuners here are not fans of the autronic and im assuming this is a similiar design. When is the software program gonna be on the website i would love to check it out?

hmm it seems we have to buy them from local tune shops, not direct which puts me off a bit.... hopefully we can sort somehting out as im keen to get my hands on one to test and play with and find a decent equiv for haltec etc.

Got a little bit of news on the V66...yes its based on the V44 but is a special one off item specifically designed for the Skyline and features direct fire ignition. I was worried it might be a wasted spark set-up but no its direct fire. Still a couple of weeks before i get some in stock...illl let you know when its here.

I have just recently been searching for an upgrade for my PFC and came across this thread. The spec of the vi-pec ecu's looks very impressive, especially considering the price of $1500. I have a few questions about the V66 plug in ecu board for the GTR:

• On the spec list it states the ecu can be used with MAF sensor. Can it be used with upgrade MAF's such as Nismo and Z32? I was thinking of running the ecu with stock MAF's until I decide whether or not to run upgrade MAF's or MAP sensor.
  

• Will the V66 plug in board have the same of number inputs and outputs as the V88 standalone unit and if so how do you wire additional inputs into the ecu as it will be using the factory loom? Things such air intake temp and wideband lambda signal?
  

• For the active knock control will the unit use the factory knock sensors or will it need vi-pecs own knock sensors to be fitted to the engine before it can take readings?
  

As a bit of back ground info I have an R32 GTR with GT2860 turbos and have uprated the fuel system which now includes Tomei 280L pump and Sard 700cc injectors. Ideally I would really like a system which has a base map for my current set up.

Any update on the ECU's? Also the Vi-pec website states the Plug model for the GTR is based on the V44 and not a special V66 model? Could someone please confirm?

For anyone in WA :

We will be taking our 1st delivery of the skyline plug in ECU early next week

Price should be $1650

Very excited about this product , especially given the lack of power fc option of rb25

For any east coasters these are available NOW through Godzilla Motorsport contact www.godzillamotorsport.com or you can pm me on here for details. Units do not have a base map loaded on them so they are not a turn key option. Ordering through Godzilla will get you a preloaded base map so it is a plug in turn key item.

i might actually sell the fcon and all the software i aqquired for it over the years..

Mark at Godzilla Motorsport in QLD has installed a couple in GTR's and one in a GTS-t.He is amazed at how smoothly the cars now drive with the new units installed. The off throttle return to idle is also far superior than anything he has experienced with a skyline before.

Truely a world class product.

Seems like good reports. I can't wait. My car goes in on Wednesday to have a Vipec V88 installed and tuned (all going to plan)

Will post a before and after dyno-graph too!

[Paradis v.1]

ya i was having all kinds of idle issues, granted some of that has to do with my q45 TB with the monstrosity of a plenum i have rigged up to it, but the vipec overcame all that and never stalls regardless.

Great results on the dyno, but i was more impressed with the ease and response we had road tuning. very responsive interfacing and fun to work through. The launch control paired with using traction control at rev intervals and my first crack at this no lift shift (or flatshift) business has made driving an absolute delight all over again

Yeah im itching to get the fully optioned V88 into our drag car for testing. Especially the anti-lag launch and the flat-shift. Sick of having to feather the throttle after the burnout to stop the car stalling too as the Power FC hated returning to idle.

Just been looking through the Vi-pec site...

It looks as if the plug in ECUs are just the board, does it come with a case? asking this because I already have a PFC and dont have a factory ECU case to use for the new board.

Yeah seems like just the board and u use your existing case.
