Hi, Guys

Some questions rising during my modification; I have Greddy Plenum with Q45 (infinite) throttle body and discover that I no longer able to use my stock throttle cable (cable is longer), and the throttle position sensor harness is different (alougth both 3 wires), so question are:

1) What throttle cable did you guys use?

2) How you wire up Q45 throttle position sensor to stock throttle position harness?

3) If you still have the Greddy plenum manual, what does it talk about on the 3-12 (page 20)..

all help appreciate...

Phillip

Adzman, I replied to your question in the other thread:D

sidewaymambo, I originally had the stock throttle body with an adapter plate, and we were able to use the stock throttle cable and TPS. I later had a custom throttle body (90mm) made, and we were still able to retain the stock throttle cabel, and used a TPS from a Holden, which we got from Conventrys, as it had the same pin arrangement.

After a while we had a custom throttle cable made, as the stock one was starting to catch as it was at an odd angle. You can have a custom cable made to any size you like.

I would imagine that the TPS on the Q45 would be very similar, with two wires acting as a potentiometer and one acting as the stop switch.

Hope that helps.

Yeah, sorry. The TPS is like a potentiometer, it varies the voltage signal out depending on how open the throttle is. Aslong as the signal range is the same then you should be able to tune the car with the larger throttle body no probs:D

And the TPS feeds back to the ECU right ? What happens to the output of this ?

Does the TPS output combine with the AFM output for the ECU to make decisions ? Is this ECU dependant or is the TPS & AFM outputs independant ?

I don't know if that quesiton made much sense.....? I hope you understand what I mean ?

sidewaymambo,

I am having my TB replaced with a ford item, it has a two position sensor (on/off) and the guy who is fitting it said it is quite easy to adapt the stock TPS to the ford TB

Also, I am using a GTiR throttle cable that fits quite nicely, also you can get the stock ones shortened so I am told.

A Silvia or 180SX throttle cable fits. A GT-R has the same connectors to suit the Q45 throttle body, and have never seen the manual so can't help on the 3rd quiz.

Hi, DoughBoy..

silvis or 180sx, did you refer to the SR20DET or CA18DET? thanks

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
