How does NATS work? engine conversion ecu/bcm matching?

Hi all have now got the VQ25det in and turning over and priming fuel off the key although no spark. 

still using the original key and ignition Barrel and BCM not from the donor M35. We have these items from the donor car but do not have a matching BCM to go with the ECU from the donor car. 

How does bcm matching work in these cars? does key/ barrel and bcm all sync to tell ecu not to immobilise? assuming it needs the key to match barrel and then both these to match the BCM and ECU?

Has anyone had to get a new bcm and had it programmed?

If the new ecu from the donor car doesn't match the original bcm in the car i assume it wont let the car start. Is it possible to reset or reprogram the original BCM to match the new stock ecu from the car the motor is going into? 

The v35 bcm and m35 bcm have slightly different pinouts on the bcm so am hoping either there is a way to have the old bcm communicate with the new ecu.

essentially can a locksmith make this work/ programming or some kind of NATS block? 

Short of going aftermarket ecu im out of ideas with this f**king car haha.

From memory, these nm35 don't have a chip in the key.

I doubt youll need anyhting but nissan datascan can reprogram.

Thanks I havnt used it before just ordered a Bluetooth OBD2 adapter and will download the datascan program and see how we go programming the bcm to match the new stuff.

You need datascan 2 for your car i think. 

I doubt datascan can help but anyone with consult with the security option should be able to code keys like Bob said. Any nissan dealer or some specialist shops like Justjap.

Yep i figured that out on the site thanks. We are just going to order a Link g4 fury for the car i think so hopefully these problems just disappear with the standalone haha.

    • Back in January, I noticed my car felt noticeably weak. I had the injectors cleaned, which seemed to solve the problem -- until now. Recently, the car suddenly lost power again while driving. Suspecting the injectors, I brought it to the mechanic. He recommended replacing them entirely, saying the current ones were getting unreliable and fiddly to work with. I could not find a direct replacement for my current injectors. The closest match I found were 440cc injectors. This led me to look into the possibility of upgrading -- and of course, that would mean remapping the ECU. From my research I found: The OEM Part numbers are 16600-72L20 and 16600-72L21 Both the RB20DE and RB20DET use the same 270cc injectors. There are much better options out there over the old OEM injectors. Nistune could be a viable tuning option. While the RB20DE isn’t explicitly listed on their site, the ECU is essentially the same as the GTS-T version - just with a different map. The ECU code on mine is listed as supported. One concern is finding a tuner who works with Nistune. Aftermarket ECU like Haltech and Link, but this would be the most expensive choice (and possibly overkill for a mostly stock RB20DE) I admit that I am very new to the tuning scene and would appreciate any insight or recommendations regarding this.   These are some SAU links where I got some of my information from for reference: https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/380324-rb20de-injectors/ https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477396-factory-270cc-injectors/  
    • The inspectors are not forensic by any means but if you forge your documents and/or badgings on vehicle parts and are found out, the consequences are just far bigger than if you just run illegal parts. And their job quite literally is to cross reference what parts you got installed and what your papers say you got. Something as silly as your suspension being 1mm too low will fail you. Nonetheless I asked if someone knew the damn pipe and I certainly did not ask for smartassery or underhanded comments, no idea why you need to be told this. Great way to waste both our time.
    • As useful as you explaining what forgery is... But then again, I wasn't aware your inspectors were also forensic experts and inspect nameplates on each component to confirm everything is original. They must inspect roughly 3 cars a year at that rate. You're right though, my comment doesn't help you in anyway, so I'll go talk to my wall now. Cheers. 
    • Say that to the guy that is going to fail your inspection or tow your car for illegal exhaust modifications. If you have anything else useful to say, please go tell your wall.
    • You must be fun at parties.
