Sedan Life. Mark II JZX81

Only joking git fire away!

Thanks yea she is good to once this is done, now getting time to go to a day soon is the issue! Had hoped to do a drift jam in august but lack of cage ATM stopped that. It will be out though.

Simons dad fixed it! When I rang Simon he didn't even know lol!

Yea I'm also assuming by the reg on the drift car that he used to be fast cave on some of the old sites like jon44w if so I've heard good things about him for a long time.

Yea Greg for sure, means a lot these days to deal with someone decent

Cool, he fixed my one two, I asked Robbie in TDP if there was a way of testing mine before map time and he said that repaired ones will just die again, get a new one. But tbh, I cant see that being logical as the part that was replaced is obviously a new part!

Yea that makes no sense at all! From what I understand is done. Part breaks for a reason. Part is taken out and binned. New identical part is sourced. New identical part is installed. System works as before. Sytem only breaks if incorrectly used/ damaged as before. If a new one is bought it too will break if under the same conditions as the first broke....

at pete i had the power fc after getn simos dad to put a new mother board into it and robbie told me fixed ones are no good,,

it cant be true tho, simos dad has done a rape load of them? Surely hed have heard back from unhappy customers??

If the mother board was replaced then the only old parts left are the cases and the wiring. And wires are either split or not.

That just sounds like a sales answer. Essentially an ECU is a like a laptop only with different out puts and uses. You replace the mother board in a laptop and it's not knackered??

hoooray for getting it fixed dude, happy days.... bet your ovr the moon

if a partis broken on any circuit board regardless of it being an ecu or anything for that matter if the problem can be sorced taken out propperly and replayed properly there should be no problem with them... 90% of these FCs break due to power serge...

and as pete said my dad has fixed some amount and had none brought back to him

right anyway back to the car.... ontopic ahooooy

Exactly!!

Sorry pal, I will get to you to pick up the other ecu's n sort you out. Maybe after the weekend.

Anywho took it for a spin today and the PFC hasn't broken yet :D

not a bother dude... hahh dont you go jinxing it. good stuff bet your delighted...

Well after a typical hitch its finally getting sorted! A near heart attack moment when Richard called to say his laptop wouldnt connect with the PFC but would connect to several others in his year, it turned out it was his software at fault. He brought the car to EEC i think to double check and it worked fine. Two weeks later and the software arrived and she was mapped today. But after setting it all up he noticed a split boost pipe so it will need tweeking tomorrow! And apart from an iffy ICV its all good :D

Ill sort the ICV out when I get her back. A picture my dad took ages ago but only showed me yesterday! Cant wait to collect it :D
