Folks, I have something to confess.

Just brought the RSM off Prank (thanks dude) and was hooking it up late in the afternoon. Anyways, getting dark and spliced the wrong wire and you know what happened. Bye, bye ECU. :uh-huh:

Started smelling something burning and frantically pulling the wires apart.

Now I have to put my plans aside for that MP3 player and an Aprilia RS125 I really wanted before Christmas, to get a Power FC.

Anyone dealed with nengun before? Anyone eles anyone recommend?

I feel really small right now.... :bonk:

Dude get it checked first that you cant fix it, lots of ppl dont but in some cases especially if the car was running or the power was still to the ecu it clow a cap or resistor or even a fuse. I couldnt tell you who to check it but thats what id be doin!! Bad luck

Thanks for that.

I checked out the fusebox and one did blow. I replaced it then ran the ECU diagnostics test and the red LED is on, not flashing or anything. I think this means the ECU is dead. Can anyone confirm this?

If you need a ECU in the meantime, I can prob lend you one.

Thanks for the offer mate. But I'm already in the process of getting a Power FC. Hopefully I can get it up an running soon cause I really want to go on that cruise to Putty Rd in a GTR, not a automatic Toyota Celica.

I got my Power FC through Perfect Run. I was able to negotiate a price a few hundred cheaper than listed on the website.

If all goes well, I'll get the Power FC tomorrow or the next. Then have to tune it on Friday or Saturday then I'll be ready to rock.

400HP, it did cross my mind but I was going to get the PFC sooner or later so I figured why waste money on a stock ECU.

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
