I was wondering if anyone has used a stock Series 2 ecu in a series 1 R34GTT.

I have a series 1 R34GTT manual and want to install a series 2 ECU.

I know there was a torque increase in Series 2's and a few other changes, so I am wondering if the ECU was different as a result.

Thanks

I have a Nistuned GTT ecu that's already been tuned for Air filter/interfcooler/exhaust and 12psi for sale for $400

For example you're better off buying something like that and then getting your afr checked on a dyno or even a touch up tune.

I really can't see any benefit in trying to chase a particular series ecu for little to no gains when you can have the car setup perfectly for its current time real world condition.

Reason i ask is because i currently have an impul ecu which is tuned for jap fuel i think. I bought a series 2 ecu to put in my car to avoid any issues driving using 98ron. I have however bought a series 2 ecu and wanted to check that it will work ok in a series 1 before i install it. Definitely didnt get it for the power increase in series 2. Just wanted to make sure it was compatible. Fron what i read the extra power in series 2 comes from revised cam shafts, and wanted to see if the ecu was revised to accomodate the cams. Cheers

Just letting you know from what I've found the s2 manual models have a different exhaust cam, compressor wheel and compressor housing compered to the auto s2 and all s1 models.

Would the different exhaust cam mean a different map in the ECU? Would this ECU still be ok for a Series 1, or is the tune very different?

Most likely. Not sure if it will be ok for a series 1 and I don't know how different the tune is.

I recommend you get a tuneable ECU and tune it or pick the ECU that your engine came with from the factory if the car is stockish just for peace of mind.

ok, so i looked at My copy of nistune in relation to r34 ecu's as I was curious.

There are approx 6 different image files, and this is the biggst difference i could find quickly comparing them. Alot were identical.

The timing maps had a copule of spots with 1 or 2 degrees different, wouldnt matter at all.

this snip is comparing 2 fuel maps.

i would call them the same....

you can download nistune as a trial, load them up into the main and comp slot, then click the magnifying glass to compare.

Thanks very much for confirming everyone, looks like it will be good to use.

Hope this post helps anyone else with similar question in the future as a lot of ecu questions relate to R33, but not many for R34.

Just letting you know from what I've found the s2 manual models have a different exhaust cam, compressor wheel and compressor housing compered to the auto s2 and all s1 models.

I'd love to see some hard evidence that manual and auto have different exhaust cams and different turbos.

Series 1 are obviously different from Series 2. (compressor wheel from memory)

    • Yeah, that's when. I guess you could say I'm as patient as I am foolish(or just a masochist?🤔). I've strongly considered throwing in the towel and calling it all quits many times, and have almost done so. It's a first-world problem for sure, but I've had a pretty rough go of it, as well as other factors; hoping something good comes of all this; it has to. It definitely is half the price of the ATS and performs great, but I'd like to try something different for once. I've sampled the ATS in a friend's 32 and it's solid👍
    • I know mentally you're set on the ATS clutch but honestly I'm a big fan of the Nismo Super Coppermix Twin. It's much cheaper and in some ways I think it's a better design for a street/circuit car.
    • Just checked in first post and you should be able to bring it home November this year, right? I'm amazed you made it through four years of this. As hard as it feels now the rest will go by in a breeze in hindsight, I'm sure.
    • Realized I haven't been back here in a while. Still here, still alive, still waiting for the car.  I went back again the only time last year from Oct-Nov for R's Meeting and drove it around some more, including a few laps on Fuji Speedway(in the wet, sadly). The car still feels good, but have a couple small things to address. I've been getting more parts but have slowed down still, and most of the bigger purchases are now out of the way. I find myself getting impatient more and more when it comes to getting started on this project; it's quite hard for me not being able to really dive in and start making this car my own because it's halfway across the world. At times it doesn't even really feel like I own one of these. Haven't really been motivated or had the desire to document the last trip on here or social media for, well, reasons... but here's some pics...it's also still alive and well as you can see: I've narrowed down to the last large part purchases(anything over $2k) before the engine build to be: 1) Ohlins Road & Tracks 2) ATS Twin Carbon clutch 3) Endless BBK with some custom options and 4) Kansai Service carbon driveshaft I don't think the budget exists for all of these this year, but I'll try for one or two items I think. Though, every time I look at my spreadsheet I sigh, shake my head, and get depressed just that little bit more.  'til later.
    • It's a stunning location!  I've been to NZ twice but haven't made it to the North Island yet.  Definitely on the cards but the South Island is hard to tear yourself away from too... Looking forward to see what you can wring out of it once you can get it to hold together!  Be awesome to get a low 11 or even sneaking into the high 10's pass out of it.  That's a bloody quick car that most people will never experience in their life.  Enjoy!
