hey all got a quick 1 for u about boost control kit for power fc it has 3 vac inputs com,nc,no.

in the apexi powerfc faq it has

COM line should goto wastegate actuator

NO line should goto intercooler piping

but nothing about NC is this where ur map sensor go's or dose map sensor go to intake vac out let..

also why dose NO line goto intercooler piping and not into intake vac out let as thats where most boost controler ran from i throught

i am using external gate mate

so dose external gate go to nc

then whats com go to mate

this what it says for external gate nothing about NC

For external wastegate setup it should be plumbed between the manifold and your external wastegate pressure line.

COM port to the top of the external waste gate

NC port goes to IC pipe - I will explain how I did it

I connected a vac line directly from the blow off valve vac port (on the cross pipe) to the side of the ex gate. T pieced that vac line close to the IC pipe and ran one to the blow off valve (like it is stock) and the other to the NC port on the solenoid

Hope that helps

well NO stands for normally open and NC for.... you guessed it normally closed. so you'll only be using one or the other depending on the type of solenoid/set-up you have. not both. so if you are plumbing up the NO line then of course the NC port is connected to nothing.

the top of my ex gate is vent atnosphere and the side is to boost controler so from the side port on gate to com and nc to ic pipe

i have a greddy intake so my bov is vac to intake vac port

so nc must go to IC pipe dose it matter what side of IC it is or can it go to intake vac port

where dose map sensor go do it go to 1 of the intake vac ports

people dont have to answer and they might not

do some research yourself or make it easier for people to understand what you are trying to achieve

try drawing a diagram and posting it up - you might get a quicker response

    • Lets say I wanted to buy this, specifically for this purpose. How do I actually perform the function. Can I still buy a Consult-1? Am I about to be burned by the fact my car is a 2000 model Series 2 R34 and thus will be some stupid other system? Do I just need this -> https://obd2australia.com.au/product/nissan-consult-14-pin-to-usb-ddl-diagnostic-interface-with-ftdi-ft232r-chip/ And with what software?
    • That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc. 
    • Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?
    • Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...
    • The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
