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 :(

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
