ECU vs. Seat-belt controller - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

S13Grl · 11-09-2001, 03:24 PM

So, did you ever get a digicamera and take a picture to prove to us that your ECU is located in the center armrest? Because you promised to do so. And I am very interested in knowing if this was true or not.

Does anyone remember this topic?

Kid Zelda · 11-09-2001, 03:44 PM

I do remember it...very well......he wanted to bet something that he was right.
I would like to see pic's.

whateverjames · 11-09-2001, 03:45 PM

ecu in the armrest? i know at least on my S13 the ecu is in the passenger side kick panel, and the computer that controls the seat belts is in the armrest.  but i gots no clue what you're all talking about and i did not read the other post <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

Why bother. He knows he's wrong. He'll just take a pic of the seat belt controller and say it's the ecu. #### if he's getting a SR20 then who knows where the shop will put the ecu (logically in the stock position) Why do you have to egg people on S13Grl <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

S13Grl · 11-09-2001, 05:19 PM

I'm not, he just said he was gonna take pics, and I wanted to see the pics.

I'm sorry, IceTekGuy, I don't mean to egg you. I'm sorry if I was rude. It's just this CA18Guy, parading his turbo and his moderator ability that is making it seem that way. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Don't listen to her IceTekGuy. She is evil. If you argue she will kick you in the nads, but don't woory i'm learning some counter moves. The sacred art of the bra strap snap, hahahaha

What did you say? come on say it, curiosity is going to get to me. Also this is the 17,000 post on this forum, yeah!!!!

S13Grl · 11-10-2001, 10:30 AM

Well, my first response was to say that "I dont' wear bras" which I do most of the time, and this was something perverted again, so I edited it. It was just to spite you and it was too quick of a response.

I'm not worried about the bra-strap tecnhique at all.

S13Grl · 11-18-2001, 04:53 PM

So, is it the ECU or the seat-belt controller.

dmaestro · 11-18-2001, 05:06 PM

My seat-belt tightens up when I get going fast.  Does anyone else have this problem?

S13Grl · 11-19-2001, 07:18 AM

Haha! Now that's a cool thing! Mine doesn't do it, but it will lock in certain instances without me moving quickly.

IceTekGuy · 11-19-2001, 08:50 AM

ok ok ok, I'll be more of a man than a woman and ADMIT!
i WAS WRONG and so was my mechanic, he was like what the fu$k when he found the ecu by accident...

My car used to have a brown interior. So, I started spray-painting it black. I had to take some pieces off to do that properly, and one of them was the center armrest/divider. I saw that the wiring from my automatic seat belts went there, so I figured that this must be the seat belt thingy. Then I also took off the passenger kick panel to repaint that too, and there I found the ECU. That's my experience <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>.
