  1. I think the pressure signal is fine, because it goes to the map sensor up the back. Must I have one hose connected directly to the wastegate actuator, and the other directly into the nipple off the intercooler pipe going to the turbo, thus getting rid of the factory t-piece ? Cheers guys Want more boost Tom
  2. Hi guys Ive just installed my boost controller. I took it for a spin, and everything *seems* a lot faster. However, when I go to calibrate it through learning mode, it says that my stock boost level is actually 0.64 bar ? And it doesnt seem to want to boost over 0.7 bar, even When i adjust the EBC to 1.1 bar Now im not sure that ive connected it correctly The HKS EVC 4 has 3 lines. One of the lines ive connected to the stock boost sensor right up the back where the black box is, off the line coming off the plenum. As per this photo here Now, the other two lines off the EVC are meant to go to the actuator, and the other to the line between the turbo and the intercooler (or something like that). What ive done is disconnect the stock boost solenoid, and connect up the EVC in place of it. ie one line goes to the wastegate actuator, the other to the line (i think its the BOV return line ?) As per this pic Now Its not adjusting the boost properly, and I have no idea whats wrong ? I think ive connected it up wrong. If anyone can post pics/tell me where I should hook up the hoses to, it would be much appreciated. Cheers Tom
  3. I have for sale this auto TT. Works perfectly. Removed due to installation of alarm Not sure how much its worth. Prefer sydney buyers. Wouldnt mind a swap for an EBC + cash adjustment ? or basically, any performance parts Cheers Tom
  4. interested in boost controller & pivot speed thing Is the boost controller single or dual stage ? Flicked you an email.
  5. Yep same with me Had to go to the inspection place when i got my skyline. Took about 15 mins all up and it all cleared. nothing to worry about
  6. All fixed I havent checked to see the colour of the globes - they look a bit yellowish. But theres definitely light illuminating the dials, which is all I really need If I get bored of this ill either get covers for the globes or go EL Cheers guys
  7. Ah ok Thanks guys I think I'll do that then. Id rather drive with the yellow coloured bulbs, than something which is so dark that you cant see Are the red pointer things meant to be illuminated as well ?
  8. I think i'll just leave it at - my compliancer is dodgy :headspin: No dimmer switch anywhere to be found. Trust me on this one. rs73 - I noticed that the bulbs had green 'condoms' over them. When the dash lights up, its dark green. What colour is it meant to be normally ? Thanks for all the help so far guys Tom
  9. I havent checked the fuse But then the back of the dash lights up green, albeit a very poorly illuminated green, so I dont THINK its the fuse. Keep the ideas coming though Id probably just need to find the right wire for the power/illumination to the dash, and rewire it with a different impedance ? Although I really dont wanna do that in case i f u k things up Cheers
  10. The right hand stalk itself only has the parking lights, low beam, high beam options. No dimmer switch on there. Ive checked everything, pulled the whole dash apart, and nothing - no dimmer Are the red thingies which indicate which speed you're goin at, rpm, etc, meant to light up ? Coz mine dont come on AT ALL (i dont think ?) Or if they do, theyre really dark
  11. Hey guys, Just got my skyline yesterday, but while driving at night I noticed I couldnt see how fast I was going, nor at what rpm or anything else. The back part of the dash lights up green, but its not very bright at all, and the red pointer things dont light up at all ? I dont have a dimmer switch, looks like the workshop didnt fit them. I've taken the dash apart, but I really have no idea what to do. Any ideas ? Thanks heaps
  12. Yep, not covered by CTP even though ive paid for it Will tried to stay off boost in the rain today :headspin: Thanks guys
  13. Ok excellent Thanks guys Its all confirmed for tomorrow @ 11 at kogarah Cant wait Tom
  14. Cool thanks heaps! Dont have a stereo in my car at the moment so i cant test it Cheers Tom
  15. Hey guys Ive got this strange button which isnt documented in my jap owners manual, or my aussie (compliance) manual (or i cant find it) I have no idea what it does, it looks like it came with the car originally. It'll probably be something darn obvious, but i really have no idea Pic attached Cheers guys
  16. Hey ppl Ive just gotten my R33 complied, blueslipped, greenslipped, BUT ive been 'selected' to go to the pits before the RTA gives me rego Am I allowed to drive to pits plateless and unregistered, or can the coppas give me a fine? I have all the paperwork, including all the engineers certificates, import approvals, etc. Do I need an unregistered vehicle permit or something? Really need to get this sorted for tomorrow. Cheers Tom
  17. Afaik the SZ-R Supra came in 6 speed but yeh, thats definitely a TT supra converted to single T
  18. This still available ? I pickup my car from compliance tomorrow, and would be looking at getting it tinted pretty soon Cheers Tom
  19. if u got 37k all up to spend, maybe consider a 34 ? But most likely, go the 33
