Base image for Z32 ECU for RB25DET

I have a RB25DET with a Z32 ECU USDM P/N A18-A22 M11, which crosses to 23710-30P00.

My ECU decided to fry today, burned traces near the injector driver area and the 12V trace to the reverse bias protection diode was burned open.
Matt, have you seen this failure mode on a Z32 ecu?
The ECU was laying on the carpet and the case was not touching chassis.
(In my career I've had issues where IGBT's blew because of a lack of common mode return path, but that was a 600V, 150Amp motor inverter bridge)
I put in my stock ecu and the car started just fine and drove good while in closed loop (no boost), Z32 MAF and 740CC injectors are a good combination!


I was able to jumper the 12V burned trace and the Nistune board seems to be okay, I can communicate to it over consult.

I just want to verify that I won't need to have the base image changed since I'm running the "Z32_FOR_RB25_41P03_MT_v2.ent" base image.

Thus I can use this type 2 board in any Z32 8Bit ECU since I have it setup for RB25DET.

Thanks

Stupid me, had to re-read the Z32 ecu modifications for RB25det. Which clearly states that any 8Bit ecu will work.

I've read that thing at least a dozen times last year.

I swear I'm getting slower.
