Any suggestions?

Cheers,

Mike

Mike,

I have a english translated series 2 stagea pin out diagram if that will help. Note, it is not the r34 that floats around on the forums. I will have email to you as it is against forum rules to post up here. You may already know this, but apparently there is 3 different series 1 ecu's with different pin outs.

Mike - good to see some actual results of testing done on this

Darrin if you can send it my way also enquiries[at]nistune.com also it would be appreciated as I would be interested in the differences between the wiring. i've wired up for ER34 on the bench for basic inputs but can test other inputs/outputs when i get free time. I've got on the list to probe the boost solenoid output to see how that gets controlled by the ECU

I have a series 2 stagea. Was a auto, but I converted to a manual. I was running a r34 power Fc for a while with the only issue, which is the same as the factory manual stagea's, the engine check light comes on due to the AWD stagea Rb25 does not have traction control. It is a simple fix, but not too important.

So I see no reason the Nistune ecu should not work in my case.

I plan to get a Nistune board soon as I no longer have the power Fc fitted.

guys be careful not to confuse the two types of ECU.... you wouldnt want to be trying to rewire in a Z32/R32 ECU with the different (blue) connector

why wouldn't this work. if you could manage to get/make a plug adapter, to go from blue type to grey type. or just cut the old plug off and join the blue type on, it wouldn't be that big of a deal would it?

Mike - Thanks for the offer. Series2 are confirmed working no problems with Type 4 board however Series1 we just cant do. Its similar to the Hitachi R33 RB25 computer with no easy provision for external daughterboard (so we recommend Z32 ECU with rewire since its more cost effective)

QWK32- If you wire in a Z32/R32 ECU you wont have any transmission or boost control in these ECUs for the Stagea like the WC34 ECUs have

  • 11 months later...

so... rumour has it... Z32 Computer in your s1... (na turbo what doesnt matter)

get some pins changed over and the board soldered in and it works apparently...

dont ask how it works etc coz i dont no... the dude that braught my 260 has told me it is possible, his best mate actualy made nistune!

    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
    • Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.  
    • Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
