Sorry if this is the wrong place to post,

Hi all i'm new here so here goes....

For the last year, I have been in the process of building my track/race 350z 2006 with all of the driveline, VQ38VHRTT from the new R35 GTR Jap spec halfcut from Japan.

Painstakenly the engine, twin airboxes and all of the wiring has been fitted and bolted under the hood to keep the car looking stock as possible. All of the rear diff, transmission and suspension have been welded/fitted and bolted in the rear end from the halfcut I imported from japan 2008.

When I recived my shipment from japan most of the parts were missing! Critical parts like the ECU (needed to run the gearbox and quick launch) front Seats, steering wheel are all gone. Apparently now my biggest problem is (which i found out last night talking to my mechanic) that I cannot use my Motec m600 to run the car according to him the car will start but not drive as the whole ecu controls the transmission. I have read posts from here and see you guys are the ones in the know! What should i do? Wanting the car to look stock but packing punches, how can i get it to start should i buy a new ecu immobiliser keys? anybody have japanese sources for parts?

how much would this All cost? any help is much appreciated.

Not sure many people will be able to help you out. You are definitely treading on very unknown grounds there mate :sweat:. I know work on the R35 ECU has been going on but as for running the engine out of the car.. wow :). Photos?

The car will be used for the strip so speed limiting will definiely out of the question, gradually as the engine receives mods and turbos ect.... down the track would like to have a ecu to handle the change. For now I am looking at getting her running and engineered for registration purposes.

Send Haltec an email, I know they where working on a gearbox control when everything went a little pear-shaped.

Have you also thought about old-style H-pattern gear selection and custom parts, might be something else also to think about.

As for everyone wanting pics, how bout help the guy, then ask for pics :down:

it sounds like bs.

The VQ35 is a great engine to start with. Wouldn't it be easier just to stroke it bolt on some turbos and put a holinger behind it?

It would be alot less hassle. Not as interesting 'pics' wise, but easier.

Besides, it's not called a VQ38VHRTT. I reckon if you'd gone to all the trouble of sourcing it and sticking it in the car you'd know the correct engine designation. And you wouldn't normally get front seats in a half cut, and definately not a rear mounted transaxle gearbox.

Sorry mate, it's nothing personal, just that a few things don't quite add up.

However, if you are genuine, then good on ya mate for doing something different, and if the pics do surface, then I'll eat my hat.

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
