hey ppls

im looking at getting a 33 gtr with some type of microtech piggyback device installed. The wiring at the connector has been hacked up alittle and its still got the stock ecu. Im just wondering though if i just put a powerfc in and turn off the microtech (if u can) will it all work ?? or will i need to fix up the fixing and totaly disable the microtech ??

also i think its running on the MAP sensor ??? cause the AFM's werent plugged in.. does that sound right the piggyback ecu could use a map sensor ??? i wouldnt of thought so... ? how would it be working if the afm's werent connected to the electrical connectors ??

thanks :thanks:

yes a microtech will run a map sensor.

and why would u want to unplug the microtech and use a power FC? it will do the same job if not better i would assume.... y bother pulling a workin after market computer setup 2 plug in another? i mean a PFC $800 worth + install when u have a running microtech sounds like money down the drain 2 me....

Depends on the tuner you want to use... and as i know his choice, i reckon its a good move.

It also sounds like its only a 'interceptor' type ECU set-up with the factory ECU still there.

So best to get the unknown out, and the well-known in IMO.

    • haha don't worry I'm sue you've got more fun ahead buying a 30 year old turbo car....but at least you are in the right place to ask
    • some days eh? The keyless entry and interior light on/off with the key will be controlled by the Body Control Module, but I'm not certain where that is or what it looks like (you might get lucky with a search to get a part#, which could be printed on it). I'd start at the A pillar/ Under dash/kick panel on the driver's side
    • It might be hit and miss, but Nissan Genuine Parts and Pitworks are not the same thing, although both are available from Nissan Dealers with Nissan Part Numbers. Nissan Genuine Parts are the OEM stuff, Pitworks are their attempt to get people back from generic parts makers
    • I did end up getting it sorted, as GTSBoy said, there was a corroded connection and wire that needed to be replaced. I ended up taking out the light assembly, giving everything a good clean and re-soldered the old joints, and it came out good.
    • Wow, thanks for your help guys 🙏. I really appreciate it. Thanks @Rezz, if i fail finding any new or used, full or partial set of original Stage carpets i will come back to you for sure 😉 Explenation is right there, i just missed it 🤦‍♂️. Thanks for pointing out. @soviet_merlin in the meantime, I received a reply from nengun, and i quote: "Thanks for your message and interest in Nengun. KG4900 is for the full set of floor mats, while KG4911 is only the Driver's Floor Mat. FR, RH means Front Right Hand Side. All the Full Set options are now discontinued. However, the Driver's Floor Mat options are still available according to the latest information available to us. We do not know what the differences would be, but if you only want the one mat, we can certainly see what we can find out for you". Interesting. It seems they still have some "new old stock" that Duncan mentioned 🤔. I wonder if they can provide any photos......And i also just realized that amayama have G4900 sets. I'm tempted too.
