Can anybody give me an idea whats wrong with my Type R (MY99)
Just filled it with Optimax and driving up a hill, fairly hard,then the engine cut out at about 7500RPM just before changing gear. Managed to start it again but after 2 seconds it cut out and continued to do so after each attempt. A mate said it could be the fueling or the ECU. If so how much to fix it and how easy to repair a Jap spec ECU?

Car running fine, just had the 45,000 mile service carried out about 2 months prior from an official dealeer prepared to touch imports. Only engine mods are a Blitz SUS but lots of people say you should not fit them because of damaged MAF sensors.
