Mine's ECUs are stock ECUs with a modified basemap, usually this basemap is generic but it could be tuned specifically for one of Mine's customers (bigger injectors, Z32 ECU, bigger turbo, tuned lean via EGTs not AFRs etc.). You have pretty much just wasted your money for a generic basemap, and have actually put your engine in jeopardy if it's a specific tune.

Sell it, buy a nistunable Z32 ecu (for VCT control) and tune it properly, forget the fuel pump that's the least of your worries.

Exactly.

Im now into DOUBLE FIGURES on people i know (or know of) with R33 GTST's that have blown a motor with a mines Ecu. (piston ringland 95% of the time)

they do feel great and transform a stock car but it is not worth the price you ultimately pay

I'd throw that ECU in the bin and buy one that won't kill your car.

Mines is tuned for a specific application, not generic cars.

Powerfc, or get a vg30 ECU and nistune it, you'll get a much safer resolution.

I'm actually looking forward to getting a nistune and tuning It myself.

Do the world and yourself a favour and bin the Mines ecu. Your fuel pump is getting old so if you have plans for more kw down the track you could look into getting a new pump that will fit with your plans. Nistune is the most cost effective way to get tuneability.

    • For a daily just run Akebono ceramic pads. That's what they're optimized for. Obviously don't try to run it on track or anything like that.
    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
