Interesting how the applications of " ecu chips" well eproms really have evolved for the Z32 over the last decade or so.

 

We ae familiar with the big name ecu tuners from Japan such as Veilside, Central 20, Blitz, and of course John Wolf technology from the US.

 

Along the way we have come across many different lesser names chips in breakers and ecu we are fitting our eproms in, most of which are similar if not the same as each other.

 

Here are a few odd and viirtually unknown ones amongst a couple of known names, like Superchips and DTA.

 

 

 

Here is a pile of standard eproms we have removed when fitting improved ones, again the variety of eprom numbers and types are much more than you would think, auto, manual, TT or N/A but series ll are different so are series lll and then we have seen several different ones fitted to convertables, then of course several of our customers are from Europe and again the ecu`s are different, We also have a few customers in the US army over here that have brought their zeds over ( yes really!) whilst stationed here and different again.

 

Of course the country of origin sale will have a bearing on the ecu type and mapping that Nissan fitted but its the aftermarket "chips" that seem to have evolved to a much greater amount than most other cars I know, but of course its just more proof of the z32 popularity and what is essentially the best of the best. :clap::clap:

how much for a chip jeff, if it will work. i have a tt manual?????

Superchips are well known ..... for destroying engines

Bin them

so its not worth having then mate???

You need to have a strong engine mate and its not just a matter of plug and go it needs set up right.

 

But it does show how popular the 300zx is all over the world:thumbup1:

He's referring to the brand called "superchips" mate not chips in general.

 

As Jeff showed in the pic the list of companies offering them now is endless and of course he does his own version which he's fitted to 100's of Zeds :thumbup1:

ho right mate, how thick am i. lol well u learn something every day.

Hi Lee,

 

No problem, will work just fine like the many we have already done,

price includes replacement (exchanged )ecu a full Engine health check, compression and leak down test, ConZult, air/boost leak check and running gear check, the pre-check is a vital must do part in our view fitting performance enhancing kit of this type without this is a bad idea.

 

So once all the test are passed ok the conversion is done including pipeworks modifications to achieve more boost, and then ConZult set up again with data logged road testing.

 

Fully warranted £225+vat and expect to get around an extra 60bhp to 70 bhp over standard depending on engine condition etc. the grin factor after having your zed chipped is ace!!

 

cheers

And that's as they say, "cheap as chips" lol , sorry couldn't resist :taz:

And this is my grin:biggrin:after buying a zed with a ZedWorld magic touch

is that 60-70bhp on an otherwise stock car (stock airfilters, exhaust, intercoolers etc)... how about on a car with upgraded filters, exhaust and intercoolers, for example?:whistling:

As with any car BHP increase from exhaust and filter upgrades are small and often is more of a "feel good" increase rather than a bhp increase.

 

The power hike comes from running the extra boost pressure, the chip side of it is to ensure the mapping works in harmony with the extra boost, that`s why the checks before chipping are so important, however that said an exhaust and induction kit will enhance a chip change.

fair enough - id just be happy to get mine back to 200bhp per tonne again. just have to save some money, or sell my mazda lol

so its not worth having then mate???

Sorry for the confusion. I was only refering to the Superchips brand. Can't edit my posts so made a quick comment which, looking back, can be taken out of context. A good chip is worth it's weight in gold :)
