Are you letting the wolf ecu controll your boost?

If you are a gauge is not necessary, as the wolf will keep it at your desired setting and if something does go wrong i am pretty sure it has overboosting protection.

Personally, i am not into gauges, so i do not see the need for one.

GOOD LUCK with the install and tunning. I have been very pleased with the unit myself. Only one small glitch, i can not keep the engine running with my turbo timer :D, but hopefully that will be sorted soon.

Cold start and idle are purrrrrring :P

- the problem was a combination of a few things :

1/ Oil was a little too thick on cold start

2/ Was only really bad in winter (cold mornings)

3/ Slight tune adjustments

Now that i have changed the oil, mornings aren't as cold and the tune has been adjusted, the car starts on the first turn (be it a second or two longer than factory).

The solenoid was for the boost, and i have hooked up the factory solenoind again, the wolf just pulses this off and on to maintain the desired psi.

I tried putting a biggish cap. on the ingnition wire to the wolf, to give the timer that fraction of a second longer, but without success.

Display has been mounted where the ashtray was, and the keypad relocated to the glove box. Looks really neat and works a treat :(. Now i have the p.i.n. security code, fully operational ;).

Nice work Al! Love the idea of splitting the unit...

Im fair happy where iv mounted mine though, while iv made it detachable so as not to draw too much attention :(

Last thing i want to do is explain to the next cop what that hand controller is :D

So your using the factory solenoid to control boost? impressive cos we only managed to make it for at 10psi, after that it just wouldnt control boost so we had to installa bleed vavle..now im about to enquire for a 3bar solenoid from AEM

Howd u manage to make the factory solenoid work with the Wolf? was there anything to it?

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
