no problems! if you have a factory tv/sat nav. its the one behind the glovebox. so thats not the CPU youre after incase you see that instead

If you have TV/Nav, the CPU is ...................?

I thought it was in the passengers kick panel but I have seen another diagram where it shows it behind/above the glove box.

Which one is right?

if we are referring to the engine one- behind glovebox on ALL cars. the one inthe passenger kick is the auto or CVT ECU. the navi unit is the DVD rom above the glove box.

if you have a special ECU the label will be on top of it. bear in mind the car may not pass emissions with it in there...

Inside my glove box there is a dvd player and a etc devise.

wow so im totally wrong?

when i had the glovebox out there were 3 vertically mounted 'ECUs'. i just assumed the one in the bottom left in the kick panel was the engine ECU?? had a wire spliced for something going one above it - which i assumed to be the gearbox ecu. and finally the one actually mounted behind the glovebox was for the TV goodies....

so which ones which?? (sorry if that seemed rude i would really like to know)

I'll post a shot up over the next day or so (I have a '03 coupe here so it will be that one.)

Excellent thanks.

I checked it out today and opened the glove box and found a comparment but did see anything looking like a ecu . Maybe its because i dont know what a ecu looks like.

If it does have the after market impul cpu what does that mean in terms for compliance ,does that mean i have to get a standard ecu and then change them after registration and if i can change it back how do i get it re-tuned ?

Perhaps some photo's will help some of us advise of what you may or may not be looking at...

I have no pics of the glove box . But i went to see the car today and its getting ready for compliance he said the alloy wheels will need to be replaced and the exhuast system back to standard. I didnt mention anything about the cpu . When i open the glove box it folds out and its empty then i look up towards where the dvd player sits and there is a silver metal bracket there is that it?

What emissions mean and how much does it usually cost to comply a car i feel like im getting a raw deal.

Excellent thanks.

On the passenger side there are two openings (gloveboxes for lack of a better term) the top one folds up. In this one the 2 things that seem to be in many v35 & M35's are the DVD rom for the SAT NAV. This is not a DVD player for movies. The second, is usually the ETC device. This is an electronic toll device for Japanese roads.

The lower glove box folds down but there is nothing in this box. You will need to remove the glove box to get at the CPU for the motor.

This is a link to a page that shows how to remove various parts of the dash to access much of this area. http://g35ipod.com/installHW.php?skin=1

Under the glove box is a black kick pannel that is above your feet when sitting in the passenger seat. (this also holds the flare if you have one). This just pulls down from the leading edge. You can see the CPU above this.

Thanks for your help . The dvd player inside the glove box does play movies . I already tried it and it worked fine sound through the speakers and all. I have a aftermarket screen and dvd player install its panasonic. And i also have the etc collection thingy.

Sorry i forgot to mention i have two flares one in the holder on the passagener side and another one was rolling around in the boot

Excellent thanks.

    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
    • Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
    • okay, so I figured this out, removed needles and reinstalled after swapping the gauge face on my triple gauge for my ER34, all work and look good. I tried to do the same for the main cluster, but the main cluster gauge faces are dished, the replacement gauge face are flat, so due to the dish in the org face ,mounting backing plate (clear) and depth of the needle, the flat gauge face will not work. I notice that R34 gtr gauges are flat, appears to be different clear backing plate that aren't dished. are these available, or what have others done to install flat gauge faces?
    • Cheers mate. Seems some people get lucky others don't. It looks like the motor was detonating (to be expected if it was overboosting I suppose) as the pistons had a lot of detonation damage, and the bearings were stuffed. The bores were very scoured too, not sure if that's from the pistons or bits of ceramic turbo. By the by now. Have been trying to avoid the rabbit hole too much on the rebuild, and there's been a few hurdles along the way, but with any luck I'll have the car back soon™. Might even pop up a thread then.
