Hey all ,

i have a R33 GTR with a Mines ECU in it and the Limiter is set very close too 9,000 RPM and i dont really like that too be honest and it is running very rich which i believe could hinder the performance of the car im in sydney and was wondering are these ECU re programmable or if i can set the limiter a bit lower and make it a bit leaner without hurting the engine what so ever.

i am willing to pay if some one can help me out .

Thanks Guys :laugh:

Send it to DrDrift or anyone who can do Nistune.

Start saving for turbos though, they won't last too long once you lean the fuel out

These ecu's depending on the "exact" tune work pretty well, i have had some come through which were pretty close (making 230-240rwkw) to being spot on, BUT many are generic loaded tunes and run mega rich from the mid range onwards. The limiter is most likely 8800 as most jap limiters are set there as it saves the oil pump (less chance of accidently hitting limiter), they are not pointless limiter bashers like many morons in this country :laugh:

Depending on the ecu (33 or 32) as many R33 come with remaped R32 ECU's as the R32 ecu is half the price to modifiy. If it is a R32 GTR ecu you can fit a nistune board to it or burn a new chip for it. I reccomend the Nistune as it allows live tuning and no chip burning.

We usually install a Nistune board (fully programmable) to it with an adjusted setup to suit 14-15psi and 98ron if it is the R32 GTR ecu, if its the R33 ecu you are stuck as no-one does them. Post a pic of the silver sticker on the ECU and i can tell you what model it is.

My reccomendaion if it is a R33 ECU is to buy a R32 GTR ecu and get unigroup to do a nistune conversion to it.

    • I've always approached this as, price is comparable between low temp and high temp fluid. Just put in the high temp fluid. I've not going to lose any sleep thinking about could I have saved $20 on brake fluid that is going to live in the car over the next 2 to 3 years. 
    • Nah, the creases were pretty large, and the sheet metal is pretty thin and hard to work out, time alone is in the hours to fix, and would probably have more bog than I would be happy with In other, more happy news, I gave MX5 Mania a call and they have a few clean boots available for $400 a peice, I've contacted Fineline and given them their contact details, I'm a idiot for not thinking of them sooner
    • That really depends on how hot the brakes get and how much of any heat is transferred into the fluid. That really makes it at least a vehicle specific question, and more than like a specific vehicle specific question, depending on what brakes (ie stock, bigger rotors, different calipers) or even what pads are on it. And then there's the question of cooling air. Is there plenty stock? Is there no special cooling arrangements stock? Has some/more been added? In other words, I think you have to do the experiment to obtain the data. And if you;re worried - tie on some ducting?
    • In all the track days I've done over the past few months I've only had 1 issue with braking and thats with my current EBC pads (can't remember the colour, but they're not a track pad). I don't *think* I have had issues with brake fluid getting too hot, my understanding is that when that happens you will have quite noticeable brake loss - which I haven't had.  I'm using just regular ol' Penrite Super DOT4 fluid. I use this fluid in everything and my cars always seem to stop so I see no reason to change, except ... for the 335i. I need to do a fluid flush and was thinking about my fluid of choice and wondering if I should consider using something more high temp? Its not a super fast car by any standards but I'd hate to do a flush and then find myself with no brakes when I get. to Wakefield.  I guess, my question can be summed up as "How fast do you need to be driving to need higher temp brake fluid?"  I remember high temp fluid was considered a must have back in the day when I had my GTR. 
    • For anyone that comes here looking for answers on what can go wrong with gts-4 to rb25detneo swap. The Gloria's awd sump is different and does not fit. The rb25neo from stagea are exactly the same sump bolt pattern and axel alignment. Castings numbers are different on Gloria's blocks and oilpans if they need to be identified.
