G'day

I have purchased a Microtech LT12S for my RB25DET, however it is set up with an rb30et base tune. I have rung up Microtech and they said all I have to do to run it on the RB25det is chance the cas settings. So the question is, how do I do this? I just have to finish some wiring on the engine loom and the engine should run. I want to have the engine running on the base map and have everything 100% ready before it goes to get tuned so there are no problems once it hits the dyno.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Yeah iv already done that and changed the wiring to suit. Now i just need to change the settings in the ecu as the Rb30et only runs a single coil instead of 6 coils.

Also, how do I wire up the vct? just use the AUX output off the LT12 to trigger a relay to give power to the solanoid? Im assuming I can just ground one side of the solanoid and then give it 12v + through the other side through a relay?

cheers

I'd just bin it and buy a decent ecu. I just finished wiring a lt12s up on a 25/30 and it was the most outdated piece of shit I've ever tried to use. VCT won't be enabled as its set up for a RB30 and you can't configure the outputs yourself, which means sending it back to microtech and paying them money to change stuff which you can do with the click of a button in any other ecu. Unless you are prepared to throw good money at something that has the technology of a commodore 64 for a reconfigure, you would be better off selling it and going with something else. We even had to send my mate's back to get a thermo fan output added which is just a joke

    • Seems to be the case mate , still an OK price for a grey import.
    • I’m interested in the carbon diffuser fins and Toshiba MFD screen replacement if they’re still available.
    • @GTSBoy yeah i know it was not the "great" idea but it is and option...but i think i will stay on no BoV rather then trying to make it work with "half" this and that. But that GReddy FV2 is cool...i like that you can make it like stock if you want (and have/make the custom pipes) For other thanks! it was alot of information. But for the sound...a dont rly "like" both of them...specialy if they are loud...but if i "must" choose i would rather have little whooosh rather than sutututu with no BoV....BUT that is what is i gonna get. So for the all info i gather. In my case:  No BoV is not that bad cuz it is stock...and iam used to put N/clutch right after rpms are around 1000 so it should be ok...just need to avoid "big" drops. But i do not have the engine in the car so i do not really know how "bad" or good it is. But as i had that little test drive it looked ok. The atmo BoV should be worse car would dump to much fuel specialy between the shifts...so without proper tune/ECU i dont want that. BUT with that...car should drive ok with no problems right? (i do like there is less piping wih this solution) 🙂 
    • Usually an RB20 won't stay in closed loop idle anyway. The O2 sensor gets too cold, stops swinging.
    • They aren't, but it depends on what interests you about an R32-R34. If it's the front engine I6 turbo that tunes well with a manual transmission an E92 335i 6MT is so incredibly cheap. You can get a super clean one for 20-25k USD tops. Put an LSD in it, tune it, have fun with it. If it's the general idea of AWD + turbo and a manual transmission the 996 Turbo is absolutely much more expensive, it's less practical but it's also basically a complete track-ready car from the factory. At least the Mezger doesn't have heaps of oil control issues. And in the US the 996 Turbo and R33 GTR are roughly the same price these days. 996 maybe a bit more now that the hype has abated for old Skylines here.
