Sort of worked...

Aaron and I went for a squirt today, he looked at the gauges while I drove. We found my ecu definitely opens the throttle 100% at launch, but only if the brake was off for a second or two beforehand.

I looked at the ECU diagram and found the brake pedal input wire, not knowing if it would put the car in limp mode or if the brake lights would work, I snipped the wire and backed the car out.

The brake lights worked, and now I had 100% throttle at stall. A drive told me the abs still operated and the takeoff was much better, with the car hitting the 4000 rpm stall limit off the line with little effort.

I will let you know how the car drives over the next few days and if there are any side effects but for now it looks like Pipster pointed us toward the holy grail. :cheers:

Yep and can't believe how simple It really was obviously scotts is running off a built box which means I'm also testing it out for the next few day on the stock box to see if it handles. Scott now has an advantage with the high stall.. On my gbox it's improved a little but because I have a 2000rpm stall I can't do much ATM. But In saying that I can now boost up to 8-9psi on stall with 100% throttle and launch the bastard much better than before. I cant believe we did it, hopefully this will save us over $1000 each by not having To go gzone or nismo anymore!

Woohooo, that's brilliant !

I'll give that a go myself. Will do the before & after tests under same conditions of course, to try & take the 'subjectiveness' out of the equation.

I love low (or zero) cost solutions that give great results. No one can be dissapointed hey

If you want to try it, its pin 55 on the ecu. Its a pink wire with a blue line.(around the middle of the plug.) Just make sure you tape up both snipped ends well. :thumbsup:

(Dont hold me responsible if you damage anything please.) lol.

i rekon the nismo already has this out of the box thats probably why we have better throttle response........

but this is a shit loads cheaper lol

can you confirm this by getting hold of an informeter and stalling it up, before chopping the wire?

would be interesting to know, as i know andys impul is only doing 36% on stall as standard

his is KNOWN to have the throttle limit.

are you guys 100% sure there IS a performance increase?

heres my theory, the informeter is reading the throttle input from your foot. the ECU limits THAT signal to 38% (or whatever) due to its programming.

i have an informeter mate, ill be driving to work tomorrow so ill check it out in the back streets. wont be chopping any wires yet

yeh because before when scott would stall, it would hold him at 2000ish RPM,, now it limits him to his high stall converter.. which means the extra opening has increased, i also noticed a 5psi increase from where it was before for mee..

im sure he did lol

im glad we all worked together to get past this problem :)

now craig and i cant son of rajab our nismo all over you guys :(

Does that mean if this works out everyone gets membership to the awesome forum? :nyaanyaa:

im sure he did lol

Nismo awesome is still awesome; but free awesome is the awesomest kind of awesome.:thumbsup:

'Cept for boobies...:thumbsup:

    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
