So I need a new computer for my RB25. I was told a J30 ecu can be modified to run NisTune. Anyone know what a good condition used RB25 ecu goes for or a good condition used J30 ecu? I'm debating what's more cost effective for me at the time.

Search for Z32 ecu swap, I would guess its the same or roughly the same since its the same engine setup and all.

But AFIAK yea it'll work. You either need to repin your harness or get a jumper harness and repin that, but from what Ive read its not too bad. Never done it my self though, since I have an RB20.

Heres a good thread you should read

zerothread?id=359056

im running a z32 ecu repinned, I believe there was a certain type of maxima ecu that worked without repinning but I ended up using a z32 ecu since it was guaranteed to work pretty much.
