Wow, that's great. I thought about the same theory when I did my RB30, but I didn't dare pull that plug out for fear I'd never be able to find something to go back in there. Very good idea!!

anybody else doing this mod?

im going to give it ago just wondering if there are any others out there who went with this method.

I did it after reading this post. Worked great! Plus, I got rid of my oil leak from the external oil fitting in the head. I had the hole in the head welded shut.

The blue circle is the oil return port for the VVT.

The oil comes into there from the VVT valve and this port allows the oil to return to the head and drain away.

does that clear that up for you?

I pulled it out just to see what was in there! There is nothing that I can see in there that would/could be of any other use!

(but I did have to check! hahaahaa) Anyway, DONT pull it out unless you need to.. and I cant see why you would need to..

Feel free to take more pics and post them up..

I tried to give as much info as I could, so, you should be able to do the job without too much bother.

be kind to the plug when removing it.. you dont want to break it in half! or drill too deep!

happy modding mate!

Read the WHOLE thread again! check out post #4.

I put some colour on the bit that you need to look at!

Damn what was I looking at??? But in the pic you can see that mine has some sort of ballbearing on the outside, is the plug behind that? Would I need to drill into the ball and then somehow get something screwed in and pulled out and then tackle the plug?

I han't done a Neo head.. but I'm guessing that Nissan didn't stray too far from what they already know works.

Please take another pic, up close and front on, just like mine so everybody can see what your looking at.

hey just one more thing on this does it actually work because on the factory 25 block the vvt is getting a direct high pressure feed straight from the oil pump wheres this method is only getting in from the head?also when you other guys are putting the pistons in the block do you put oil on the rings or assemble dry 2 prevent the bores glazing up cheers chris nz :)

    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
