Your best option will probably be a Nistune chipped ecu. Do some Googling to find out what that means for your car and if you still need help after that post up your location and the engine/turbo/fuelling set up in your car.

Or Adaptronic, however be careful of who you bring it too. Some tuners have no idea how to utilise them properly.

I've seen a couple of tunes that were ghastly.

If you don't need all the inputs,outputs of a full standalone. A Nistune modded ECU is amazing for the money, not mention it now supports a flex sensor input. Also there's a person working on converting it to running a MAP sensor. When that day happens, for the money nistune will be awesome for the money.

And now RB20 silvertop ECU can control the NVCS solenoid.

The feature pack can also add the possibility of running a boost control solenoid valve. It might not be as accurate/efficient as a true boost controller or with a better/more modern ECU but it's still interesting.

a few questions
What engine
what harness has been used to wire it up if done yet

what sort of power are you hoping for

what is the car used for

how important are addition inputs and outputs for things like additional injectors, water meth, nos, boost control, idle control and such

what sort of budget do you have
haltec are great, so are motec, and autronic, adaptronic is pretty awesome to yet lacks some of the features of the higher end ecus, yet is cheaper, nistune works pretty good to if you have the ecu already.
id avoid microtech imo, rubbish, and they hate the factory nissan cas.

The ecu is up to your wallet and what your local tuner is used to working with I use the new Wolf as I didn't want the air flow restriction but that is my choice. There will allways be people telling you what is the best I suggest you find the tuner you want to use and ask him what ecu he is confident in tuning and that suits your car mods etc and go with that.

    • Oh, there's also the gearbox crossmember which will probably be different between the small box and the big box, and the wiring loom will probably need to be modified, because the plugs for the switches etc, will probably be different. And I think the speedo on the small box R34s is from somwhere stupid, like the diff, possibly, so you'd need to work out what needs to be done about that (assuming it is different). I think the thing you need to realise is that the front end of that yoke is a large hollow tube with splines on the inside that mates with the splines on the box's output shaft. It is a dedicated thing - not available "aftermarket". They were made to suit that box, by the car's OEM.
    • You need to buy a Saab Matt, ours had a button that turned all the dash lights off. Any decent aftermarket dash has sufficient brightness control and a headlight input for day/night settings. None of which probably helps OP
    • Yeah thanks...i thought it would be alot more i dont know 馃槃 I saw some videos on converting push/pull and it seems you need to "drill" the hole for slave(master) cylinder and buy some converter kit. On that front yoke clip i did not even know that is a thing and i need to source that(custom shops do not do that?) But anyway thank you for the info
    • Not the headlight. It's the DRL that serves double duty as white and amber. Would be the easiest way to make it happen, if fitting a BCM was in any way an easy thing. Otherwise you'd do it with some relay logic and/or maybe some diodes.
    • Would require a very smart body control module which these cars are about 20 years to old to have
