Pridzz Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 When I bought my car - The bloke said it had a HKS Ecu unit and a HKS FCD - Now I knew one of the 2 was aloud of rubbish due to the fact if I run an Ecu I dont need a FCD.Ive just found my HKS FCD And finally found where the ECU is located too, Whats the chances of me having the ECU and would it be stamped all over it?

corofin12345 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) hks didnt make any ecu's like the plug and plays... they were seperate hks units Edited July 9, 2012 by corofin12345 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
A L 3 X Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 If its a HKS will more than likely be an F con, and will look similar to(colour and stuff may vary):However i'm not sure if these are piggyback or standalone, if the first then the standard ECU will be there still Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zebedee Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 HKS never made an ECU that replaces the stock ECU on the starlet they are all retain the stock ecu so unless you have 2 ECU's there you will not have a HKS ECU.Thats not to say you might have another sort of re-mapped ecu but these don't need a FCD so i'd say the seller wasn't being honest.

Pridzz Posted July 9, 2012 Author Share Posted July 9, 2012 Yeah thats what I thought, I was hoping for some sort of JAM racing ecu etc, Tbh I didnt buy the car for the ECU as I didnt really believe it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
corofin12345 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) have you checked the ecu for markings or badges? Edited July 9, 2012 by corofin12345 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Hks made the hks-pfc fcon which required an fcd, it'll be piggybacked to your standard ecu and has its own map sensor if its there.. They are mapped with trim pots on the main pcb and were quite good at the time Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maddox710 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 yep thats what I've just brought of some1 it should be a black box with HKS PFC FCON written in white writing on the front of the box, like them picture show. and theres a smaller boxed unit with the adjustable trump pot across the front like this ->http://forums.drom.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=1620470&stc=1&thumb=1&d=1321655364 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
