i bought some glue today and went to attach it and found out that some of it must have falen off on the road where the "ahem" incident happened :blink: . So there wasnt enough left to attach it.

What *ahem* incident might that be?

Please tell me you didn't have a bingle?!

And I'm not talking a Lara either, we'd all like one of those!! :laugh:

I think we should just refer to it as "the " incident and speak of it no more :) .

I'm crediting some of the blame on lack of sleep (new Baby arrived day after Stagea). Now I'm so pissed at myself I can't even walk up to the car without becoming pissed (at myself). Hence the almost desparate desire to replace the front bumper with an aero kit! Oh and the stupid air vent thing which is half with me and half on a friggin road somewhere.

I am trying to get hold of an M35 ECU (VQ25DET) for a test remap to be done on it.

If anyone know's of a wrecker's anywhere in Australia that has an M35 on it's inventory please let me know.

The mines VX-ROM looks good and is about A$2k and is tuned to 100 RON fuel. . . I wonder if 98 would be good enough. . . but $2k is a lot of money. . probably get better mods for that. .

I have asked a mate to see how hard it is to get a stock ECU when he flys through Japan. .

That is a damn shame (so do you still have that deep sick feeling in your gut?).

Simple solution though!

Buy the ARC intercooler! Bolts on using existing pipes but does not use the air deflector, is much thicker and is a Q.U.A.L.I.T.Y. unit.

Teren,

Can supply a brand new engine control computer part number 23710-AQ800 ex Japan for $2850.

Many Thanks,

Andrew

fail.....

Whoa! Who was that through. FTG Nissan can bring in a brand new one for $2369.55 inc GST (which I still find quite expensive)

you know i actually did think of that since they're quite well priced. We're on the same wave length.

well we only need one ecu for test right? this is just to go to silverwater for them to work out a solution??

It's for testing and development, he doesn't want to risk frying one that belongs to someone's vehicle.

So that is why he is after a spare ECU so he can play.

I actually popped into SAS today and said hello to Tom, top bloke.

Just came across the second one too..

i think i will get im to email them

will we be able to get few guys to throw in for it?

Judging from the sticker on the 2nd ECU, it's a VQ25DE not a VQ25DET :thumbsup:

From what we have seen so far the VQ25DET ECU's are printed on not stickers.

Looks like I may have tracked down an Australian Wrecker with an M35 Half-cut!

Even better they look like they are willing to sell the ECU on it's own, but I'm not getting too excited as they think it's a VQ25DE engine. I wouldn't think they would import a half-cut of that variety as the VQ25DET is the only model allowed via import?!

Hopefully I will find out tomorrow and then I can get excited.

I've also requested that this wreckers send me some pics of the half-cut so I can post them up on the forum incase you guys are after any of the bits and pieces left on it.

It's had a pretty major front on so I think the front will be dead but maybe some engine parts/dash etc will be good. Will post up piccies when they send them to me.

I've had another nibble, I'm not holding my breath but hopefully he will come back to me with some good prices after he has had a check around!

Hello Stephen, Pls let me know by reply if you still need the ECU you requested to prestige Motorsport. I am in Japan now + can let you know price and availability early next week. Thank You Ken

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
