Nissan and Infiniti's latest venture into sports luxury vehicles has resulted in the release of the Nissan VR30DDTT powertrain, inspired by the VR38tt found in the R35. These vehicles sport some of the lastest features developed and come in two different configurations.
Already an award winning engine, the VR30 offers seamless power delivery, the latest in direct injection technology and a range of special equipment in order to easily monitor, maintain, and increase the power and torque delivery.

The software to cover the VR30DDTT engine has been introduced to allow reprogramming of the factory ECU in order to tune the necessary components of the calibration in order to allow for modifications and increases in power. This is not a standalone repalcement ECU so you shouldn't run into the associated issues or disadvantages of setting up a purpose-built ECU and control system from scratch.
The software allows easy control over most factory parameters including:
It also allows the addition of extra features to improve the speed and quality of the tune. These are features such as
As the product progresses and development occurs, new features and improved definitions will be added.
Block Programming (BP) will be enabled after a RaceRom patch is installed on an ECM. This means the first time you program with a BP/RaceRom equipped ROM the ECU needs to use the slow OEM programming sequence and therefore programming time will not change. On subsequent programming operations, BP will be used. The minimum programming time is approximately 20 seconds and BP will always reprogram the start and end block. More changes will require more blocks to be reprogrammed taking additional time. DTC clearing and power-off sequences still need to be followed after programming.

The VR30DDTT has many safety limiters. Raising the limiters without complete understanding may cause issues or damage to the vehicle's engine. When attempting to generate more power, some limiters may need to be increased or decreased.
Sensor scaling is the category that contains all the sensor based scaling factors relevant to tuning the VR30DDTT engine. If there are sensors you wish to replace with aftermarket types use the sensor scaling maps and enter the new values of the sensors (acquired from their manufacturer).

The VR30DDTT uses torque targets in order to control requested throttle airflows and power demand. Torque reduction requests are also released through these strategies. Similar to other Nissan platforms there are powertrain torque demand maps, torque output maps, limits and torque corrections.

Radiator fan speed for coolant temperature control is performed by the ECM. The fan speed and activation points can be adjusted in the calibration to cope with increased cooling demand and changed radiator airflow characteristics.
