Hey guys, Im just wanting a hopefully simple answer.

I'm just wondering if the rb20de neo ecus/ looms are the same as the rb25det neo engines. 

I'm doing a plus-t on my 20de neo and before you all say it's not worth it I know I have a s1 25det I'll use in either this or the drift car which ever blows up first😂.

Main thing I'm wanting to know is can I get a link g4 plug and play for a R34 25det and use the loom or ecu or am I just better off getting g4x and make/ get my loom made. 

I've seen multiple de neo plus t's make good reliable power eg: one in a mates drift car making 270kw on 22psi for 6 years, even saw 13500rpm briefly back when links limiters liked to disappear and somehow survived. 

Plan is to run a 25det turbo stock manifold fmic not sure on intake yet but will probably go front facing or could just put the standard 25det one if it fit and run 14psi with larger cc injectors and all the usual crap.

Thanks in advance for any replies

Didn't happen. Would have been bullshit signal from CAS interpreted by ECU as much more revs than was actually happening. 13500 is just so totally implausible as to be beneath consideration.

As to the ECU....not sure. There are definitely ECU driven devices and sensors on the turbo that are not on the 20. Traction control and its position sensor, boost sensor (yes, for the ECU, not for the dash) and teh boost control solenoid are the obvious ones. So it is possible that the ECU plug is the same plug, but it is also possible that it is not. And if it is the same, there is no guarantee that the pin assignments for all the other stuff are the same.

'Twere I you, I would get the wiring diagrams for them both and just compare. The manuals are out there.

I haven't tried it this way but I''m guessing it would work, as GTSBoy says there are extra sensors but with the link I'd guess once again lol that you'd just have to wire in the boost control solenoid unless just running gate pressure, the boost sensor & traction probably shouldn't be an issue with the link.

Have you checked the Link site? See below lol

Suitable applications: 

RB20DE NEO, RB25DE NEO and RB25DET NEO in R34 Skylines

RB20DE NEO, RB25DE NEO and RB25DET NEO in C35 Laurels 

RB20DE NEO, RB25DE NEO and RB25DET NEO in Nissan Stageas

- Plus, non neo motors in Stageas

Thanks for the reply's guys, I did look on links website but for some reason didn't see the "suitable applications"

I'm not too worried about everything working ie dash but would be nice, the boost sensors and controller will all be done by the link as they have a 4 bar map sensor and multiple extra ports for things like boost controllers & iat sensor. The cars factory manual and doesn't have tcs and abs runs on its own modual. I'll come back and update you guys on how I get on for anyone trying to do this in the future.

    • Just had a look, they don't. Fuelling on the base map is purely alpha-N, and the ignition table is MAP. Remember it's just a base map to get the car moving  
    • Hi everyone, I’m Dave from Canberra. Here's a few pics of my 1992 R32 GTST coupe which I imported back in 2006. Only mods so far are HKS Hi-power cat back exhaust, K&N filter, ATC Volanti steering wheel, Pioneer stereo, amp and sub. This was my daily driver up until 2015 and sadly hasn’t been driven at all in the last 5 years due to marriage, work, and kids taking up most of my time and spare cash.As such its in need of a bit of TLC and one of my goals for this year is to get it back to running condition and maybe look into club/historic rego. I’ve joined SAU so I can ask a few questions along the way (although I promise to google Current Problem +SAU beforehand!)
    • From talking to the mx5 guys the NC doesn't actually need bonnet vents like the earlier NA and NB models, due to a better designed cooling system and undertray design There's plenty of them used as street cars and weekend track toys running anywhere from around 170 to 250kw with stock non vented bonnets, I initially was going to get some bonnet vents, but, as they are not actually required, I'll put vents on hold for a while and just monitor temps, though I do need to get something to actually monitor engine oil temps though, coolant temp can be pulled from the OBD2, but the oil gauge in the car is not actual oil temp, it is only a calculation based off coolant temp and RPM ☹️ They do recommend upgrading the radiator, which I have already done with a triple pass, and the only other thing they recommend for a street car is heat management, like I talked about above to protect bits in the engine bay from radiant heat, and to either replace the nearly 20 year old plastic coolant expansion tank, which I have done, or get a aftermarket alloy jobbie for some bling They did also say that if I wanted to track the car on occasion a oil cooler and sump baffle would be required, and as I already have had a sump baffle installed when the engine was out......... I'm going to get a oil cooler with a thermostat....... just in case I do eventually track the car, but probably not, but still maybe...🤪
