I imported my R33 V-Spec from Japan in Dec last year, I am having a few engine tuning (missing, loss of power & extremely rich) issues which I am working thru

I have replaced the usual Plugs, AFM, coil packs (replaced with Okada projects for future tuning), injectors tested & cleaned, manifold gaskets replaced...

Turned the V-Cam system off & still the issue remains, next step is an aftermarket ECU

I pulled the ECU out & opened it & i cannot identify what this is?

it seems to have a "Daughter board" stuck on top of the main board (referred from R33 GTR ECU pics )

Questions,

1. Is this STD?

2. If not STD what make is it?

3. can it be tuned?

4. can it be removed so an aftermarket ECU can be fitted?

as I am new to this any help would be appreciated...

# is 2371024U01 of the front of the ECU case

Then ECU # seems to be correct when referenced by Nissan, it is the "piggy back" daughter board that I think has scrambled

The battery was disconnected when shipped & then a few times after that, possibly could have lost or corrupted memory parameters

From my on-line searches it seems to be an "Techtom" board which is apparently tune-able but I am still trying to find how & what program...

Yes I understand that it is a STD ECU

but when I google R33 GTR ECU this is a STD comp (pic DSC00547)

As mine has a 2nd board (pic 201718) stuck on top, that is what I am trying to find out details about

Ben,

I contacted Matt @ Nistune & he confirmed that it is a TechTom board, thank you for the contact

There are not many people in Australia that can "tune" this board so basically the ECU gets shelved

I am purchasing an Emtron this week so at least there will be unlimited tuning capabilities

I must say that the response time of Matt from Nistune was fantastic...

Great you found an answer.

Matt is fantastic, super helpful.

    • Hi all. So I have my GTR on the lift and have been working on it a few days and today I unpacked the frontpipe that was wrapped with heat wrap stuff, because part of it was breaking down and soaked in oil. Noticed that the pipe itself does not actually look like a Mines, despite it supposedly being a Mines. But I could not find any fronpipe online that looks exacly like his, and I don't think it is a custom one. My amateur measurement also showed the two pipes are about equal length, so maybe this is just an old version of the Mines pipe? Would appreciate insight on this by the enlightened folks. greetings from Germany
    • Yeah. If I plug the connector in and connect the vacuum lines, I assume worse case scenario is that it simply doesn't work? Yep PFC.
    • I would think that rather than attempting to perform an engine swap, with all the difficulties associated with doing so in a country where the raw materials required are harder to get hold of, I would just build the CA20 for boost, find an EFI manifold for it and either add a turbo or a supercharger. Or both. You replace one set of difficulties with a different set, but I know which would be more fun.
    • Well, a proper aftermarket ECU** SHOULD be set up to run the purge solenoid, same as the factory ECU would, so that the tank breather system continues to operate the way it is supposed to. I have no knowledge of whether the PFC (which is what I assume you mean when you say Apexi) has an output (and internal logic) to run the purge solenoid. If it does not, then given the product design intent for the PFC, which is to be a plug in replacement for the stock ECU, I would consider that a massive failing on Apexi's behalf and would be another reason to think that they were a half-arsed solution to the problem if programmable management on RBs. I would suggest that since Nistune came to market (which is a LOOOOONG time ago now) there has been no valid argument for choosing a PFC, especially if the PFC can't do things like this.   **ie, Haltach, Link, Motec, etc
    • Thanks for asking the question we were all thinking!
