You have the wrong ECU. Where did you buy your motor?

Post by **civics91** » Thu Feb 26, 2004 1:27 pm

zerolift i have a black top s13 motor what ecu do i need code number

Post by **Cyberkreig** » Thu Feb 26, 2004 1:27 pm

that is dependant on the year of your blacktop motor.

ecu J7 is for the type X motor only. ECU's 61,62,63 E5 and E6 are all just about interchangeable.

i jave a j4 i think

Post by **Cyberkreig** » Thu Feb 26, 2004 1:27 pm

I have never run into a J4 ecu. If i had to guess, I would guess that is the 180sx type X 1997-1998 Blacktop SR20DET Automatic ECU

I would try to contact your vendor to try and swap ECU's. They also may be more knowledgeable than I. Quickest way to find out is to swap ecus with a friend if that is available to you.

best of luck. I'm going to the beach for the weekend, but i'll be back sunday night, let me know how it went.

but the 61 is for a red top i thoght u cant use a redtop ecu with a black top motor

Post by **Cyberkreig** » Thu Feb 26, 2004 1:27 pm

it will work. It just has a slightly older software version. Ideally you want an #E5 - 1994 to 1996 180SX Blacktop SR20DET, Manual

but any that i listed should do the trick.

Post by **civics91** » Thu Feb 26, 2004 1:27 pm

what about the e6 ?

Post by **Cyberkreig** » Thu Feb 26, 2004 1:27 pm

#E6 - Jan 1994 to Aug 1996 180sx Blacktop SR20DET, Automatic

as a rule automatic and manual ecu's are interchangeable

Post by **civics91** » Thu Feb 26, 2004 1:27 pm

well i think my timing is off now so i am playing with it now on the cas what mark do u use to time it with ?

Post by **DriftBandit** » Thu Feb 26, 2004 1:27 pm

Go to http://www.phase2motortrend.com they have directions on how to manually set your timing. Are all of your coil packs good?

I had the same problem, The shop gave me the wrong ecu, Did you get the right ecu yet?

Good luck.
