Hi all, got a question.

When adjusting the base idle using a laptop and conzult (free version) via the nissan consult port, do I still need to disconnect the tps sensor?

(My theory is that by using the software, it will turn off the tps signal to the ecu anyway)

(If anyone has done it this way b4, what steps did you take?)

Thanks!

Here is what I did:

Hook up the nissan consult with a laptop

Start conzult free, click on "engine", click on "full data monitoring"

Checked everything is looking good

Click on "base idle adjustment" and the engine's idle dropped to around the 5xxrpm mark

Close the "base idle adjustment" window and the idle jumps back up

So I'm assuming when I click on "base idle adjustment" I can use that to adjust my base idle via the screw and look at the laptop for more accurate adjustment. (Am I right?)

like manwhore said its only temporary and wont save the information

(You can't adjust the idle in the conzult free software, it is just a gauge/meter)

But I'm adjusting via the screw?

Sometimes when I stop the car at the lights, the idle will go just a little below the line (I'm guessing thats around 500rpm).

And the car rolls backwards on hills (automatic), my old car doesn't do that (I think my old car's idle was ~ 750rpm).

Well, the previous problem is gone and a new one arised (don't you like that :( )

Stopping at the lights, there is this deepish kind of rumble (vibration) inside and it is irritating. (Changing the gear from D to N/P doesn't help)

As soon as the car is moving it is gone.

Any ideas?

ahh welcome to the world of SKYLINES.

sorry mate can't help, but i have a meriod off issues of my own, would you like some?

LOL.

I think besides this current glitch the car is great, so thanks for the offer but no thanks :(

    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
