ECU codes

[LAN-EVO3]

hey guys,

ive accidentally spillet some rust converter on my ecu its a meek chipped one. ive got a couple of ecu's lyin around but apparently only a GSR one can be chipped.

is there a way of telling if its a gsr one or not by the codes?

cheers

Have you got a GSR or an Evo?

 

[GSR94T]

its a GSR with 2L motor


as for gsr ecus im sure theres topics about it somewhere

all i know is the one im running is also a meek chipped one from 93 gsr and the code on it is 187040 from memory

 

[LAN-EVO3]

yeah its a gsr w/ 2L.

ive searched around and cant seem to find any topics on it

take the ecu out of the car... take of the front case and see if it has eprom... you are looking for the chip in the bottom right corner like the one below... both gsrs and evo ecu's can be chipped, but they need to have eprom...

and heres one without eprom just so you know what you are looking for...

apparently (although i can not confirm but it does seem pretty logic) is that if the ecu has eprom it will have an E on the outter casing as the pic below... of course this will not be entirely accurate as these casings can be changed...

im assuming that you want to replace the chip in to a different ecu??? if you were running a gsr ecu on a 2L conversion i dare say that you'd be best to find another gsr ecu with eprom...

Why don't you run an Evo ECU?

Surely the GSR ECU would make it run funny? :?

Not if its been chipped

Is that what he's going to do?

 

[LAN-EVO3]

cool...thanks guys

its a meek chipped one.

I think he just wants to find a new ECU to put his eprom in



LAN-EVO3: you aren't FLYBYUGSR are you by any chance?

what u mean clutz?

as in a nick in another forum?

nah, i just use this one in all forums heheh.

i checked my ecu's i got lying around and they all have the eprom chip.

yay! lol

Na na I just thought you were someone else, under a different nickname

Hi guys, brand new to this site and have a very basic question that I can't find an answer to, where is the ecu ? , the book I have is useless. I have a 93 GSR.

see pic mate.

As above.
Get your head under there.
only have to remove that bottom plastic piece under the glove box, and you can remove the ecu quite easily with a spanner.

Don't forget to earth it properly when you put it back in!
