Geez, is every kid like you at kindergarden? You guys must have some great fights.
And don't say no one threw you a bone. I saw some replies to your original 
post.

Perhaps if you had mentioned what engine/car your ECU was from I (and 
maybe a few others) might have helped a bit. Yes it's hard to get info on 
Nissan ECU's - I have been looking for over 3 years now with little success.
Most of what I have achieved is from my own hacking. Don't expect people
on a list to interrogate you for details. The more info you provide for us, the
easier it is for us to help you _and_ the more likely you'll get an answer.

Finding out the engine/car type is not rocket science is it? Neither is pulling
the lid off the ECU and having a look inside. Considering you want to mod the
ECU, the average guy/girl on this list would assume you've already done that.

If you want to stay then stay - If you don't then leave. I'm sure no one will
mind either way you go.

Anyway my A$0.02 (about US$0.0000001 of course)

Can we let this die now and stop wasting bandwidth? Chris if you want to
take this up with me off list feel free. I might even be able to help you with
your ECU if you stop throwing tantrums.
