Just when I thought I was ready to leave the NRRBA, my ecu decides to commit suicide. Im not sure at this point what caused it, but I am sure I burned (literally burned) one of the components on the main board when i turned on 12v to the ecu. I took off the cover and had 2 electrical engineers from my job verify this. Im using a very hacked rb20 harness on my s14 that I've been trying to clean up but maybe there is a short somewhere that I missed? :wtf2: I have gtr injectors and a q45 maf that the ecu is setup for. I wired in the 10w resistors to the injector common + right before each injector so im fairly sure I did that right.
If anyone has a spare rb ecu regardless of condition/trim in the nyc tri-state let me know I just need this one component I think its a dc-dc convertor.

I have a functioning rb25det S2 ECU you could buy. Send me a PM if you are interested.

FWIW, you screwed up the wiring. These ecu's don't just blow up.

Thanks for the replies guys I found a local guy with one that should work... On closer inspection and after talking to carl I realized I have a j30 ignitor installed and had to rewire for it. Apparently the ground and power are switched compared to the rb20 one :poke:
