Can I Use R34 Nistune Board In C34 Rb25, Not Neo. Ecu Plug Is Like Neo.

[robots]

Just wanted a quick check.

My friend got a c34 engine in his car. Its rb25det. Electronic vise its like early r33 engine. I didn't check the coilpacks though. CAS is mitsu, the TPS sensor is like on r32/early r33/rb26. But the ECU socket is gray like NEO engine, and consists of 3 plugs. Not like old nissans - blue plug/socket.

So my question is will I be able to get a NEO nistune board into that ECU and will it work ? Or ecu internals are like old r33 ?

Need some input.

Thanks!

Have you asked Nistune...?

wont work, buy the sounds of it he has the engine out of the S1 stagea, you can't install the nistune board on these. the ecu internals are like the R33 ecu's with an R34/S2 plug.

the motor is pretty close to an r33 S2 motor...

I didn't ask nistune. I don't think they know )))

Hmmm. Anyone tried using r34 ecu in r33 s2 cars ? like stagea s1 ? r33 engine with gray r34-ish ecu plug?

Or wait for Trent/Status/URAS too see this thread and be led to the sister thread in the Stagea section! http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ni...63#entry4457563

As if it is do-able, that is who i will be seeing haha

r32 ecu +adjustable cam gears... or Z32 ECU, both work on r33's, so why not us? If a S2 ECU or R34 then that makes it less work as they atleast use the same plug bar some pinout variations on the 34...

I think you will find that the engine you have is the same as a 33 and i would assume the ecu would be the same, can be done, but for the money you are spending you could get a power fc instead, a lot of screwing around to get them to work.

Other options are to mod a Z32 ecu (there is one for sale in the for sale section) or use an R32, if you go an R32 you wont have vct.

I looked into it for a while and ended up going for a power fc.

The problem is in the ECU plug. Its R34 type. Not the usual blue one. Other than that its a r33 s1.5 or s2 engine. No igniter, but mitsi cas. Pink label airflow meter.

I don't think they know

You dont know if you dont ask! Seriously send me an email through and I'll have a look into it. The main thing I would need from you is

(a) photo of the insides of the ECU so I can see what internal connectors (if any) there are)

(b) consult download of ROM image. You need a consult cable for this. Use trial version of Nistune with ER34 address file and do Operations-Consult Download

Email those through and then I can see if it runs. It most likely will since ER34/WC34 (stagea) are basically the same. From what I have observed so far C34 may be also... and I might be able to bench test the board in an ER34 on the bench too

hey, Matt ! Thanks for stopping by here. And you got a PM!

[darkhalf]

no probs. let me know how you go with it. be good to add another vehicle to the list

Hello guys what did you find out. I have the same issue myself right now. I wanted to get a Nistune setup but not sure if it will work on my board. Some suggested that since I still have my old z harness that I take the the blue end and rewire my c34 harness to match a normal R33 harness. So as we all know that is a lot of work but cheaper than buying a used harness for like 350. So your help would be greatly appreciated.
