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?

    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it. 
    • Not yet quite as bad as what we've seen a Jim Berry clutch do in an R32 GTR though when it decided to cut a chassis rail in half... Still very very gnarly and a great reason to avoid.
