RobPhoboS Posted August 21, 2021 Report Share Posted August 21, 2021 Hey guys, Just a couple of basic questions here, I recently bought this ecu from a friend that had it spare. Connected it to the car and updated the firmware, all cool no problems. Awesome, finally a standalone ecu! I just wondered about where I should be asking any questions about it in the future when I hook it up properly? As I guess this ecu is seen as a G4? Lastly, in order to get to one of the dyno operators here, it's possibly 1.5hrs drive away. On the included base map, I presume it should be safe enough to get there? My car is still n/a but just slightly higher compression, different cams, intake and head work. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted August 21, 2021 Report Share Posted August 21, 2021 Yes, if you have updated to the latest G4+ firmware 5.6.8 then you can consider it a G4+. We give the same support either way, but the G4+ forum has more traffic so you will likely get answers quicker in there. The G4+ 350Z base map is good as it came from a car we owned and tuned. There are different maps for the models with 2 VVT cams and one for the cars with 4 VVT cams. Just drive it easy until it is tuned properly.

RobPhoboS Posted August 21, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2021 Hi Adam, Thank you so much, hugely appreciate your help! Really looking forward to learning more about this ecu, so will certainly sign up for something like the hpa courses too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobPhoboS Posted August 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 Just since you mentioned it, I may as well check here (but happy to start a new post). My car is the 2004 DE, so has 2VVT cams and is a manual, any idea as to which map I could use? (I'd presume I'll be able to amend something in the software) Note, I'm not running the ECU just yet but maybe in a couple of months, just need to get a few bits sorted first.

Adamw Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 Use the "auto trans twin vvt" map, once loaded, go down the bottom of the ecu settings tree to the torque management folder and set torque management mode to off.
