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!

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.

Mine says found new hardware "Link G4 Extreme"...lol

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.
