hey guys/girls

i have a Apexi pen type turbo timer. i have a quick question that would be appreciated if i could get an answer to it. i installed the turbo timer myself (only the timer) however the Apexi pen comes with O2 and Air/Fuel Ratio also, however to connect it , you have to splice two wires on the ecu. i have the Apexi ecu diagram for the stock R32 gts-t Ecu. However i have a aftermarket G-zone chipped ecu. What i wanted to know was, are the wires to splice still going to be in the same location on the male connector. or would it be located somewhere else.

Thanks niran

you only splice one wire, which is the stock 02 sensor wire

the other wire you might be thinking of is the handbrake wire

nah, if you follow the wiring instructions from apexi, they want you to splice the earth wire for the timer onto an ecu earth. but like you said, there is also another wire for the hand brake.

... or you could edit the attached pinout and electrical schematic, add some nice "tag" words to the post, so this thread shows up when people search... that would be shhmick yes :)

An ECU earth, a "reference" earth, uses a common ground on all the delicate sensors, tis important you use it.

umm not sure if they are illegal, with turbo timers they have a 'safety' (well i know the apexi pen style tt's do) when u hook it up, its wired to the hand break as well, TT only stay on if the handbreak is up, once u drop the handbreak the tt will cut out. meant to prevent the hijacking problem hope that helps :(

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
