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 :(

    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
