Hi guys was wondering if theres any way i can check to c if my zeds chipped, ie is the ecu sealed, is it something i could do or would it need to be sent somewhere, and if i could ge into ecu would it be obvious if it had a "chip" in??

yeah you can just open it up and unscrew the sister board and underneath you'll see if its socketed and chipped or not. To be honest though it'll probably have a sticker on the cover saying the make if its chipped.

If you do open it though be very careful and don't touch anything with your bare fingers as it will fry the ecu. if your unsure with electrics your best bet is to get someone in the know to take a look for you.

good luck

hmmmmm well theres no stickers on, might have a look inside!!

Go on get in there!

Where will I get one if it's chipless ? Gonna look in morning...

click on linky http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=119387&highlight=ecu+board this is the inside of a stock ECU with a stock chip. These can be replaced with a socket which an aftermarket remapped chip plugs into. Andyp and DTA does these and can fit the sockets

If its not Chipped then contact either John Dixon, AndyP or DTA. Looking at around 100 notes, give or take depending on who you use. I have always used John Dixon in the past and could not recommend him highly enough.
