The GU miniarray is a ultra high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) detector consisting of eight plastic scintillators of carpet area 2 m2, each viewed by fast PMTs. It is used to detect Giant EAS by the method of time spread measurement of secondary particles produced in the atmosphere. The energies of the air showers have been reestimated using CORSIKA program. As in the original analysis the Cosmic Ray energy was determined via its relation to the ground level parameter Ns, the shower size. This relation was obtained previously through a best fit relation in agreement with QGS model and Yakutsk data. In this work we use CORSIKA code with QGSJET model of high energy hadronic interactions to simulate miniarray data leading to a modified relation between primary energy and shower size. A revised energy spectrum is reported for 1017 1019 eV primary energy.
