I just ordered myself an ecutalk for my R33 GTR.

Having just realised the size of the unit, question one where have others put

their ecutalk. (Orginally I was going to put this in my ashtray / modify my ashtray etc)

But I don't think it will fit.

Question two are these things legal.

ta Henry...

no ecu change or piggyback is legal, be it a remap, stand alone, piggyback or modification of the stock one

you would usually get pinged for it as it alters the cars emissions

But on the ecutalk you can now change fuel / ignition timings , doesn't that count towards changing

car emissions.

Paul,

I think you are refering to the cars ecu, The ecutalk is just a diplay of the OBD, I beleive it can do changes only while the ignition is on and returns when off...

Montie.

they are ever so slightly smaller than a din socket. I have mine installed below my radio but above the ashtray...

pretty cool at dispaying stats etc , just have to figure out what they all mean.. doh! oh & update the firmware as well, havnt tried that one yet...

Ps much bigger than ash tray

The unit has already paid for itself.

I got an air flow meter fault. (i have had trouble in the past) and there is the problem.

Pulled my meters out & pods too.(totally filthy & lots of oil in the meters & pipes)

I've cleaned out the meters , and currently waiting for my new pods to arrive before

I put every back in.

Montie ur shifter and shifter boot where u get it from ? i got a series 3 but the boots i seen on ebay and auto shops looks shit as urs looks genuine lol

It come with the car. (so I can't help you if your looking for one)

My skyline is a series 2.(its got the red stiching on it)

    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
