Damn looks like it is aftermarket.

I was hoping I can pick one up cheap from the wreckers but seems like it may be harder to find.

It was this:

Just curious why u ask whether I have standard ecu or not. Can't the standard ECU's use map sensors?

Its stock as a rock so Im guessing it still has Afm.

double check you have the std ECU, the Fcon Pro can use a map sensor to run the car..

since your link isn't working for me i can see what it is your pointing too...

your car still have an AFM?

Oh is that so? Maybe that was the reason why the hose was disconnected from the map sensor initially (i assume they had an a/m ecu and then took it out before they sold it to me).

Yes when i was installing the pod there was that black plastic box near where the pod sits - I thought this was the MAF sensor. Interchangable terms?

p.s Im guessing its standard ecu as it has Nissan on it and the model number - MEC-R126 (Edit: Confirmed by this site http://eparts.jp/parts_detail.htm?brandcode=30425019)

Andyn,

As others have already pointed out the R32s use an airflow meter and not MAP. The MAP sensor on the firewall adjacent to the brake booster is used for the factory boost gauge and I assume this is what you are referring too?

Cheers

No I checked the part number and it is a map sensor part from the PowerFC - however in my current setup its currently doing nothing.

So what I think has happened is that the previous owner had a pfc, and he took it out and put standard ecu back in (leaving the map sensor in but unplugged).

So Now i have detached this lose hose and everything is running fine. Im pretty sure this is what has happened.

Thanks for ur replies. Kicked up a stink about nothing :D

      You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.

      By cosline · Posted

      Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
