R32 RB25de ecu and turbo?

[YO880]

Hi Guys,

3 very quick questions for you,

1) can the R32 RB25DE ECU be rechipped (as the RB20DET one can?)

2) if i add a turbo to an R32 RB25DE head, assuming it can be remapped to suit, will i need anything else electrically to support the turbo (apart from a boost controller)

3) is the r32 rb25de gearbox the same as the rb20det box?

thanks guys

Did you work this one out? I'd like to know too

[paully_tee]

do r32's have rb25 gearboxes?

i believe that the R33 rb25de gearbox is similar to the R32 RB20DET 5 speed

still not sure on the rechipping of the R32 RB25DE computer, turns out ours was an R33 one, so that was out..

we will probably either go for an Rb20det computer (i have the loom, just need the ECU and all the sensors), or just go aftermarket with the RB25DE loom that came with the engine

haha you sound in a similar situation to me.

I have the RB25DE loom and sensors on the engine which came like that, but while in Japan I have picked up an RB20DET ECU.

Hopefully the looms are close enough and I think only one sensor may be different.

When I get back i will take photos and try and compare notes with anyone who is helpful enough with the opposite of what I have.

yep, been there

by comparing the two, the signals seem to be very similar, a couple are different.. Have a read of the RB30DET thread, i asked the same questions and the consensus seemed to be that you HAVE to use the same sensors as the ECU you are using..

from memory the two connectors for the ECU's are different too..

i would love for that to be wrong

will post here with what i find in 2 weeks time
