nah didnt change everyday driving, or even just planting it.. as it always went to 100%

but tonight i shall be swinging around for more testing.. i have something else i wanna try..

but i have noticed that down low the AFR's have changed down low on stall.. obviously now its getting much more air and not tuned for it, and where there wasnt boost before, there now is.. i guess the MAP sensor is helping but yeh.. i may need Cihan to do a quick road tune just for bottom end WOT.

when you get yours in today let me know what you think??

plus i think that it would only make a good difference with a highstall.. as you said yours is now hitting stall so you wouldve seen the bigger difference. the extra 5psi or so helps.

Ok, makes sense. At least now he can tune it properly as the damn throttle opens now, a little lean off boost should be ok and help it spool I guess. Better call Cihan later.

the quick test i did in the city, the car went to 45% then to 100% for me. the 45% was probably a delay in the screen update or something.

ill do it again this afternoon on the way home in the back streets. at least the car will be well and truly warm by then

you need to fully press the brake in. and hold the accel for a few seconds.. it should sit at 40-45%.. if you release the brake with the accel to the floor you will see 100%.

It definitely feel its much more responsive and the hesitation it had sometimes coming out of corners is gone. There must be a delay on that wire I cut to stop the throttle opening. Bloody Mr Nissan.

thinking of this.. i actually have slightly better off the line take of.. as in the response to when you slam the accelerator is much different now..

lol this morning i managed to get the wheels spinning again, and they're pirelllliiiiiiss lol

fun lol.

im gonna put mine hidden in the dvd area.. eventually

When you think about it, there's probably only 2 possible reasons to even put in a switch.

1) The ECU eventually throws a code (unlikely given how many km's you guys have done since cutting the wire)

2) You lend your car to someone & you think they may try to launch it from standstill, & they can't drive, & it's wet, & etc

In which case you wouldn't lend them the car, right? I put the switch in so I could easily compare before & after & before & after again, & after & after....lol. But I wasn't hooning & there wasn't a tunnel anywhere near here :whistling:.

The only difference I could pick driving around town was that there was slightly better acceleration if you really had to cross the intersection before getting t-boned, & you'd been stopped with your foot on the brake.

The launch is certainly better, but not as noticeable as my experiments a few weeks ago. Obviously there were other factors at play then, but not enough to make me want to pursue that testing now that a free mod seems to fix the low end restriction.

What's funny was the conclusions we had come to previously that seem inaccurate now pinch.gif .

ok ill perform this mod one day this year........ damn being married into an italian family is hard work. something on ALL the time lol

anyway, i bet the nismo ECU gets the cams on faster, so lets go with that so craig and i still have something over you all :P

Mate, I hope you do get something extra for having a Nismo ECU :blink: . You'd have to be annoyed at paying money for nothing more than you could get by cutting a wire.

Surely Nismo don't just disable that input and sell it for $800 or whatever?? That would be a huge scam if that was the case lol.

LOL. :nyaanyaa:

Anyway, I decided not to put a switch for now as it seems to be fine. At worst you would only have to turn the car off for a second to reset it anyway.

The high stall converter is the key here though, I could never get it onto stall before with the highflow so it would always be a slug off the line, even worse than stock because I had no push from the converter (because it wasn't coupling yet) Now I can so it will make living with the GTX turbo much more bearable.

youd hope thats not all they did!! haha

but no it was a full tune as well, also dual maps (if you want that). who knows about the cam advance, Scotty is there any way to tell? does something go high or low that i can chuck a meter on?

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
    • FYI: Racebox RE7R Custom Tunes Released!   https://goracebox.com/.../2017-infiniti-q50-q60-re7r-tcm...   FOR GEN 2 (21+) VEHICLES, PLEASE SEE NOTE AT BOTTOM See more   But whomever tuned your car is the tuner you should go back to, AMS, Sonictune or BT Tune....
