New Plug-in Ecu Coming


Recommended Posts

But only has 4 ignition drivers unless you want to get a V88.

Hopefully haltech will release more plug and play models

I do not know how the ignition outputs work but there is a plugin model for both the R33 and R34 skyline.

the plugin model runs wasted spark (two coils fire at once) i have not had any issues with this setup as of yet.

Our street/circuit GTR runs a plug-in...over 600hp (24psi) at all four and pulls harder than a one armed 15 year old with a stack of porno's.

Hi guys, I'm using a plug in VIPEC in my R32 GTR for 3 months now and since the install there's been an intermittent problem with my Atessa which brings up the code for TPS fault. I've read a post somewhere by someone saying that this problem had happened and was possibly caused by the ECU creating a voltage drop (also with an Autronic) and the correction was a voltage buffer or some sort. Could anyone get into detail about what the fix is? I'm getting tired of losing my AWD mid corner on a hard drive and having to turn the car off to reset the Atessa..... Please help.

I'm only running 302whp at the moment but building for 500whp this winter and I can't have the chances of intermittent traction loss. Thanks guys.

Check your TPS is correctly adjusted and tightened firmly...the plug-in boards have never had an ATESSA issue...only the V88 when running the early harness adaptor.

Thanks! I'll check it out. I didn't know it was only the V88. Was hoping it was any of them lol. Back to the head scratching...

Can anybody recommend a distributor that I can contact to purchase one of these ECU's from??

The distributor local to me is one that I wont go to for seperate reasons and being in TGassie makes it hard to shop around some.

I am looking for somebody who can supply an ECU with a base tune already in it so we only need to fine tune it to my car.

Would like to have this in a and running before christmas.

Speak to Brett West at Adelaide Performance Engineers (Graham West Workshops) see what he can do.

I was in Burnie a few months ago, nice little town!

Us southerners get shafted for dealer choice...

If Dirtman cant help, call godzilla motorsport.

Curious to know what message do people get when they hook up their ecu to their laptop for the first time? Ie when it's asking to install the drivers? Vi-pec are sorting out an issue with my ecu, but curious to know what peoples ecu's come up as.

So sounds like it should recognise it as a link?

hmm mine wont connect to my laptop running vista (cant find the drivers, ive tried multiple reinstalls on the laptop), and comes up saying link electrosystems ECU, but getting a new top board from VIPEC so will see if that sorts out my issues. It connected fine with my old xp laptop, but will not work under vista. And will also will now not connect under my other laptop running xp.

CeJay...my last post was supposed to be funny...sorry you missed it. Have you checked the vi-pec forum for answers?

Yes I have, and hopefully it's getting sorted, getting a replacement top board from Ray, because my ecu doesn't come up as a vipec, it comes up as a link. Was genuinely interested to see what other peoples ecu's register as.

And here i was trying to be funny and i was on the money.

We tried reflashing a Link with the Vi-pec firmware to test the theory that the hardware was the same...it didn't work. We tried flashing it back and it wouldn't work back as a Link...we killed it! Link sent us another one to replace it.

    • Great info @tidi0x  Will definitely be handy for others and maybe me if I decide to keep the shit box H pattern.
    • Bumping this up one last time.... I wanted to follow up on the clutch slave issue. I realized that what the issue comes down to is the pocket is flat milled, and the cylinder does not want rest flat. So in order to mount it correctly you will need to make a spacer for the fingers so the cylinder is floating. I took two plates of aluminum, drilled some holes and was good. I did still need to make the relief cuts in the bell housing, as even with the spacer the bleed section still interferes. The OE bell housing the mounting holes are raised from the housing.       
    • If the event in USA goes ahead will be interesting as it seems the rules will get more cars over here. Apparently the track is laguna seca too. Yeah s15, if I get a the lower dash trims, centre console and change front cross member to standard LCA position will fit clubsprint. See how rules are as i would rather do complete widebody than a bolt on flare to run the 295 with proper clearance.
    • If the car is legal height I can't see it being an issue. Found a thread on reddit that might offer some insight.   I got a ticket from a copper in QLD for my S15 being too low. They had this wheel thing on a stick that they put under the car and it hit my exhaust. Anyhow went to an exhaust shop to get the exhaust tucked up/hung a little higher and I wound the coilovers up a smidge. Don't think I even had to go back to the police station unlike when I got defected for having a carbon bonnet when I brought the S15 from the ACT to QLD and had to replace it and then rock up at a police station and have a yougish female officer who knew nothing about cars confirm that I had changed bonnets. Should have just painted the carbon bonnet yellow to match the rest of the car lol
    • Id like to race in the US i think alot of those track would suit me   For the s15? Youd be stuck between club sprint and the new Open Am wouldnt you depending on how much interior you have left in
