New toy WILL play :-D

[grinder]

so by rights it should be a N380 looking at that list ?

is it possible to get to the ECU without opening the passenger door - this is the new challenge

[sadgoth]

yes if you can get the carpet up without opening the door

[grinder]

hummm i dont think you can - as the carpet goes under the kick plate - looks like its a lot of car pushing round then !!

marc - how much did you want for the ECU ( based on it fitting ?? )

I\'ll check the numbers on mine as well - but I think I have an N370 and N374 -which isn\'t even on your list !

[grinder]

humm this could get interesting then

[sadgoth]

how much?

not too much

I don\'t know maybe £40 ish inc postage?

[grinder]

HOW MUCH ... hummmm thats a lot to pay if its not the problem

i need to dig deeper before i commit

[grinder]

cheers tony

like i said - need to find what ecu is in the car first before i go about buying one

[sadgoth]

couldn\'t remember what price I\'d said on the ECU TBH, saved me hunting through my old postings!  so yep £20 is fine (plus p&p though )

My Jap spec ECU had the rom socketed, however it was chipped, so theres a chance that panspeed were fitting the sockets?  Uk EGI\'s had N374\'s IIRC, I think my JDM one was an N340?

[Prof]

I have N380 with EGI stamped on it also (which actually came off my car), and the other one is N374 which came off an older EGI - brought this one for £25 notes to play around with.
 
Neither were socketed, and the BLITZ access one I brought on eBay was not socketed either, but the chip had been replaced.
 
But sounds like you\'ve got one coming your way in any case.

[grinder]

so looks like i need to find out what ecu is in it then

Mark - is there an 8 digit number on there somewhere aswell ( rotechnics said that these need to match aswell ?? )

cheers

hiya chaps

right then - done some more work on it

1 - checked the TPS ohm rating things - they are all OK apart from the idle narrow range and rather than being 0.8 - 1.2 its about 1.36 - cant see that making a difference though
2 - all the other readings are OK
3 - checked the crank angle - and all thats withing ohm - so thats ok
4 - disconnected the TPS - car still clicks
5 - next plan - remove the ECU - see if it still clicks ( could be interesting ) - then get the numbers off it and see who has one

sounds like a plan eh
