RB + MegaSquirt ??

[R33GTS-T]

s14 2510's - i hope you realize that the std rb26 ecu is a 27c256 eprom based ecu, so for a little over 180$ you could have an emulator and have an ecu capable of controling a 1kwhp+ motor.the japanese love tuning the std nissan ecu, its terribly reliable and its amazing...i mean it has dual maps, o2 feedback, knock retard, and is gaurenteeded to run everything on the car no worries.not to mention since its a std piece of kit it has a good base map to go from and honestly the stock maps require just a little tweaking to coax great power out of, seriously something to think about.

<---intrigued by the idea that I could possibly get a rom tuned ecu on a college students non-existent budget rather than having to :paceing at home waiting until i graduate and can finally afford a full stand alone setup

So is everyone running RB's in 240s still able to use their stock RB25 ECUs? From the way i'm reading this, it looks like nobody is running stock ecu's...

If you want to run the stock computer you can.

But... when you get into modding the motor your gonna want to tune it.You can tune just a stock computer. You'll need either a Rom tuned chip, a emulator or a standalone or a piggyback.

The only thing is that the RB25 ECU is a different type of computer, so as of right now I dont think anyone can Rom tune or use an emulator to chip it.But Carl was saying that you can use a Z32 ecu and burn a chip for that to work on the RB25

Anyone interested in rom tuning their stock nissan ecu... Check out this forum I've been lurking and researching on for a while now:

are there many problems when running bone stock ecu & motor that anyone knows of? (as far as 25 S2 into S14)

no that s what everyone runs when they are stock.

Also the benefits of running a standalone ecu are not worth it if you are planning on staying stock.

Y don't you take a look at the stickies.They'll give you a lot of information.

If you don't see it there, then try to SEARCH it.

I appreciate it. Believe me I have done a fairly good amount of searching. I just cant find anywhere that clarifys the ecu side of it. Thanks for responding.

Oh and 300plus, sry for jacking your thread \ ontopic

With the talk about running a 300 tt ecu I was looking around and found this http://www.zcontrol.net/downloads.asp , a program to data log and program your ecu I guess some have experimented with the ka\ sr also. Just thought I would share just in case some of you were interested. Looks promising then again this might be old new's and im letting my newbieness show

Well, I once heard a dirty, little rumor (?) that McKinney was working with JWT about running the Z32 TT ECU on the RB25, so I contacted JWT to see what their options were when tuning any of the skyline engines...

"Hi Annie, The best choice of an ECU core that JWT can upgrade to run a single turbo Skyline RB20 or RB25 series engine is the 1992-94 Maxima SE 2 cam ECU (engine for this model is VE30DE.) This ECU core has the same 6 direct fire coil control, single O2 sensor, single MAF sensor and plugs in the RB20-25 harness the same too. We can program for different combinations below in the price list.

The problem with using a Z32 ECU is that the Z32 has 2) O2 sensors and this complicates things more with this control system. I recommend using the Maxima SE ECU.

RBoosted get up with me on AIM, I've been talking to Carl about this but the more knowledgable input the better!

If someone has the time take the ECU pinout of all three and put them in a .doc file and post it up. I will when I get a chance, if no one else does.

I'm very interested in going this route as I'm sure others are!

the ve motor and the z32 share the same base ecu...
