Hi.

I have been trying to figure out what wcu's that cross over the same harnes, but whatevwr i google i don't realy get a good answer.

I have truble with my rb25det s2 4wd auto car, and want to try to use a Manual ecu in it to se if it migth help with the problems im having, problem is that i have no idea what ecu that wil work with the engien.

And yes i do know that the gearbox wont shift on its own if i put a manual ecu in it,

A manual Stagea won’t work properly as it will need to be from a NEO or an RB26. You could possibly use an R33 gtst ecu auto or manual. Either way AWD won’t work. But the auto one might work the gearbox. What issues are you trying to fix?

There's no commonality between 25Neo and 26 ECUs, so it won't want to be from a 26.

I have problems with the igniton timing and have had that for about 1-2 years, tryed to adjust multiple times, it showes as "corekt" and then it isent, car is slugish, slow, backfires, cherry red turbo after 10min drive.
Changed plugs, coils, maf, fule pump, fule filter, have alsow tried a different Oem ecu with no luck, had a sugestion to try a manual ecu and shift it myself to se if that would solve the problem.
Would go for a aftermarket ecu but nothing suports s2 auto

Is it a series 2 rb25 or a series 2 Stagea?

If you haven’t changed the CAS it could be that but it sounds like cam timing and as Ben says if the ecu has been changed it means it probably not the ecu

Cas has alsow been changed back and forth, timing belt have alsow been cheked a few times

Series 1 Stagea with a rb25det S2, or a s1.5 not sure, its a 1997 model and know ther was some stuff around there, do not have ign moduel on the coils.

Also if another ecu had the same issue that says the ecu is fine.

 

The suggestion to use a manual ecu and shift yourself is laughable. It won't work. It will stay in 3rd gear.


have been chasing gremlins for about 2 years, at some point you have to try wird shit, a friend told me it could work, not that it would work, and should be abel to manualy change, i dont know before i have tryed, but if you say it wont work, sure

How are you checking/ setting ignition  timing? There are a few ways to get it wrong that I can think of .

    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.
