1G-GZE to 1G-GTE

[crowncustom]

The GZE is going to be used as it is but will need supercharger,ECU and uncut wiring loom to complete the package so I will be using the coil packs.Sorry about that.
But I still need the question answered CAN A GTE ECU BE USED WITH A GZE?
Cheers Brett.

you cant plug a gte ecu into a gze without electrical re-engineering. they use a different rev sensor system(cas vs dizzy). if you put the gte dizzy on the gze then you should be able to do it.

Its not that the rpm sense is different. The CAS to put it simply is just the GTE dizzy, less the points and leads. Its that your GTE ECU will be triggering an igniter which fires one coil, whereas the GZE ECU triggers an igniter which fires three coils. Different kettle.

On that note, id be interested to know whether a late 7MGTE ECU would run the GZE coz the igniter, and AFM are the same, and im pretty sure CAS output signal is the same even though they look slightly different.

Cheers Brett.

You will need to use the GTE dizzy/Coil and afm for it

But I would be worried that the fuel maps are wrong and might lean out

There is realy only one way to tell do it and let us know if it works

This is getting very interesting.This is the info that i wanted to hear.
All I know is that I have a Gen 1 GZE complete less ECU and supercharger and a Gen 3 GTE in pieces.
More info would be appreciated.
Cheers Brett.

This ultimately depends on your goals.

The only real attractive parts of the GZE over the GTE is IMO;
The ignition system, for limited high performance reasons, of which the ECU needs to be binned for any real modifying &/or efficiency.
The bottom end with its lower compression ratio - ONLY if you want a ~17psi+ application, otherwise the higher comp GTE will be more efficient & responsive to your needs (on PULP).

Are your goals more finacial or performance at this point in time?

stick turbs onto GZE. Done

Well this was what my first intentions were but when I got the pulled down GTE and noticed the few slight differences then it came down to using the GZE.
What basically I was going to do was take all manifolds off the GZE and run all the GTE manifolds but when I noticed that the GZE had no oil feed or oil dump provisions I gave up on the idea.But if anyone has any ideas then throw them at me.
With the GZE I DON'T want to pull it down as it is complete except ECU and Supercharger.
So any ideas would be appreciated.
Cheers Brett.

talk to andrew from CVAP one of our sponsors and see if he has a ECU and supercharger
