I think it is 79%. If no one else weighs in to say differently l can plug it in & do a test. I do know that I can't get above 87%, ever.

No dramas Leon :) Scott pretty much hit the nail on the head with respect to what I was getting at, as he wasnt able to get around the sub 35kph 'restriction' by going to a manual throttle cable I think you could say that when you put your foot down it does open up the throttle but the restriction is caused by a secondary set of 'safeguards' I guess. It sounds like Craigs ECU isnt partaking in those safeguards though. Curious indeed :)

nismo ECU maybe??

i have a long way to go before i find out :(

It could well be the Nismo. I noticed a huge improvement in responsiveness 'down low' when I put hte Impul in but I wouldnt go so far as to say that it no longer retards down low - particularly given the amount of black exhaust fumes Ive seen spew out the back when taking off (Not even with my foot 'down'!) :whistling:

Just had a quick look at the G-Zone description again.

They do say that the "option" they can supply with their remap removes the throttle restriction in a similar way to the Nismo ECU - by modifying the variable valve timing, electric fan and also "start timing (temperature etc)".

hmm... So maybe the vManage WILL remove this restriction... and because it can work with the vv timing, perhaps the Fcon iS can as well.

because there is no piggyback for the throttle. the vmanage can interrupt the VTC signals, but nothing we have can adjust the throttle itself. except the HKS because its a standalone.

im talking piggybacks. and put yours hands up if youre running a full HKS F-Con?

ohh wait, thats no one lol

Who cares! Oh thats right, you need to pass a yearly inspection, and if you cut the cel wire the car goes into limp mode... Oh thats right, its already going to be in limp mode so who cares again... lol.

Had a Haltech Platnum series.....go rid of it a long time ago!

Now have a Nismo piggybacked with and E-Manage Ultimate......I have bugger all low end restrictions with throttle or Cam's......as seen first hand by PN-Mad both in 2WD and 4WD!

+1 on that :yes:

I felt like I was driving a 1.3 litre Hyundai Getz auto after that....

Anyways, I might be interesting to see what a 3.5, with no throttle restriction ( I think), Less fancy electronic cams retarding, and shorter 3.5 final drives will do... apparently 8psi is OK to run properly tuned on a stock motor- in a Z achieving about 270rwkw.

Now- can someone suggest a ECU - I have F all knowledge about computers and that shit- anyone have ECU proven results on a VQ35deT?

No throttle restriction with factory N/A ECU's.

eManage Ultimate has been used in turbo or supercharged G35's, Fcon iS and V-Pro have both been used (again G35, V35 and Z33's), I'm sure the Haltech 350z Premium would be up to it and I guess APS with their piggyback could also be done (works on Z33, G35/V35).

I guess you'll need a universal harness though... unless the Z33 eManage Ultimate harness (thus the HKS Z33 harness) fits - we are trying to find out for my mate's V35 GT8, but I haven't seen a PM35 ECU pinout :(

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
