I've got what seems to be a factory immobiliser which I think is playing havoc with my car and preventing it from starting. Originally it was just stopping the spark, but after I unplugged it and plugged it back in, the fuel pump now pulses off and on several times a second continuously when I switch the ignition on, instead of priming for 5 seconds. Once it also primed for 5 seconds, then stopped for a few seconds, then primed for another 5 seconds, etc. But now it's just in the "pulse" mode.

Can someone please give me rough guidelines about how to ditch the factory immobiliser permanently? I only got 1 key with the car and no remote button, so even if it's just armed rather than broken I've got no way of ever disarming it. I already have an aftermarket immobiliser installed (by someone else) and I think this might have damaged something else when installed alongside the factory immobiliser. I didn't know it had a factory immobiliser until I ripped the dash apart to find out what was going on.

If someone can pm me the pin in-outs on the green plug that would greatly appreciated. I can provide proof that I own the car, plus photographs of what I've disassembled so far if need be.

The fuel pump problem is a major concern though, I'm starting to think that my ECU might be partially fried due to this wiring mess. Someone want to lend me an ECU as well? :)

Factory immobiliser??

If it had a dealer-optional immobiliser or something, your alarm installer must have been drunk to run two at the same time.

Try posting those pics up, cause Chris and some others can tell what kind of alarm it is by the box or numbers on the box.

Ok I've got most of the immobiliser loom removed, just tricky getting to the last bit on the inner guard. I'll worry about that later.

What I've now found is a bunch of wiring in the boot, with some clearly aftermarket splicing going on, probably related to the immobiliser due to using the same plastic joiner things. There are 2 items which weren't in my GTS-t and even though it has a Nissan stamp on it, I can't understand why it would need this dodgy spliced wiring. The object in the last pic has some wires which go into the fuel pump loom, but I don't know if they have anything to do with the fuel pump. It makes no difference to anything if I disconnect this bit, the fuel pump still pulses off and on when the ignition is on.

Pic descriptions, in order:

1. Nissan stamp 47850 24U00 on top of the box I removed with all the wires going into it.

2. The total mess of spliced wiring behind the object.

3. The space from which I removed the object.

4. Weird object that doesn't make a difference when I unplug it.

Can someone help me identify anything here and what I should do with it all?

Ah, I think I figured out what it is. There's an electronic torque splitter in the dash. It must be wired into the 4WD module to control the settings. I don't know what that other module is but I don't think it matters. Time to look elsewhere. Well, time to go to bed first (sigh)

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
