hey guys,

i just had my car remapped yesterday using an RB20DE ecu out of an A31 cefiro.

the car feels a little more powerful now (mild mods: exhaust, fmic, turbotech boost) and was just shy of 200kws on the dyno.

a few issues have come up though,

1. when i start my car 2 out of 3 times it will start and then die down and stall.

2. it idles quite high around 1500 rpm cold start, 1000 when warm

3. strangely when i put it into any gear when stationary the revs will increase a few hundred rpm.

4. the exhaust temp/cat light flashes randomly while driving

any advice, opinions or theories will be well appreciated :)

I personally wouldnt have gone to a RB20DE ecu...you do know that your loosing your VCT or whatever its called by doing that....i have heard of people actually going to Z32 ecu's for RB25's remapped...

Talk to Jeff from Speedlab or whoever did the tune for you mate, they would know the car better and prob be able to sort it out for you as well

I had my rb25 remapp from him. i used a r32 chip and the onli thing i had problem with was when the car was cold it would do the same thing, rev at 1500rpm but when its warm its normal at around just under 1000rpm, he said something about i had an external blow off valve. =]

Prob just needs a cold tune as well mate....my mates 33 had a power fc in it and it did exactly the same thing, got it cold tuned and never had that problem...and you would notice that the car literally goes nowhere unless its warmed right up....sucks if you wanna leave in a hurry

      I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to come I’ve seen though

      $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.

      Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.

      I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.

      I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
