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

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
