Haltech have released the new Platinum Pro especially designed to compete with the now discontinued Power FC for the RB25DET engine.

Has anyone used this new ECU and shed any light on the features and ease of use?

I'm keen to know if this ecu has data logging and base maps for certain levels of mods done to the RB25.

Does anyone know if this ecu can be used for other RB series engines also? i.e does it contain base maps and tuning range for rb20-26-30??

I have some info passed on to me from a tuner, and been told that it has auto timing retard and fuel compensation as protection for your engine but I'm not sure how this works.

Any info greatly appreciated.

Hey Grippy,

Theres quite a bit of info on the Haltech website, Its a great bit of gear and reasonably priced.

Some of the features are:

Knock control (factory style - engine check light)

Anti lag (I hear it should be released in the next firmware upgrade 1.06 or 1.07)

Closed loop O2 control.

Data Logging: 448Kb of onboard data logging, Storage for approx 40 minutes at 10 logs per seconds, 6 channels of data.

Max 20 channels logging capability.

Wideband “auto tuning” using user definable target AFR table.

1.5bar internal MAP sensor.

Base Maps can be downloaded via the ECU Manager software online.

Installation guide for R32/R33 Gtst and GTR.. very straight forward.

Platinum is not in the same market as PFC, It has huge function and is great to use but most of what it does in not needed on normal road Skylines where PFC is at home. If you need something for a Hardcore car with lots to control and log you wont find better than the latest Haltechs.

Sorry to dig up a old thread but looking at getting nos and my tuner recommends getting one of these haltech platinum pros for my rb25.. i was wondering if anyone had any experience in comparing the streetability of the new haltech to a power fc? or is it only really good for a race track orientated car

Cheers

    • I'm firmly on the "zero compliance is good compliance" for FUCAs. I'd be looking to solid metal joints even if the primary reason for having them is because they facilitate the twist in the arm. I have never been more happy with the way the front suspension behaves than I have since I got rid of the FUCA bushes. Even the thin little (short lived) poly bushes in the Whiteline adjustables have too much compliance for my liking. It probably won't be long before I have sphericals nearly everywhere, probably including both top and bottom arms in the rear, and I'll start complaining about the increased costs for dental work. But I will be enjoying the driving more, I'm sure.
    • Plus, you'll get great experience in bedding in pads!
    • I have offset Nismo brackets so the fact the gktechs can pivot is less important to me. I have 170mm JIC arms with bushings - but they provide no adjustment and I'm not sure whiteline eccentric bushings will fit them (I don't want to ruin the bushings currently in them to find out). Ideally I want something with bushings + adjustment; hence why I'd like to find a pair of these. Unfortunately they aren't easy to find.
    • @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal!
