hey guys

hooked the multimetre up to the tps just to check all is ok

i got .45v closed which i'm pretty sure is spot in

but when i pulled the throttle cable to WOT i only got about 3.5v

car is an r32 gtst

also collant resistance was about .4 kOhms at nearly opperating temp, is this right?

Bringing back an old thread but didn't want to start a new one.

I'm getting the same thing, 0.5V when closed and 3.5V on WOT. What's the go with this, is this correct? I'm measuring it with the car on ignition and not actually running if that makes a difference, but electrically I don't see why it would. Comments?

the resistor on the throttle position sensor had a wider degree of movement, than the throttle they are connected to. Throttles all turn 90 degress, but most variable resistors turn 110 degrees or even a little more, so the full range of voltage can go from 0 or slightly above, to only 3.5 volts. The ecu "learns" what the full range of voltage is for the TPS thru driving. It calibrates itself.

    • Had a chat to Tony Mamo - he advised that looking at the graph's shape (regardless of number translation) it shouldn't be levelling off like that up top. He said it looks like the car is running a restrictor plate or something of that nature. Luckily the last dyno pull on E85 was saved to the PC - So I did a quick trace of Barometric KPA vs Intake manifold pressure, and lo and behold I see a copy of the 'waves' I was seeing on the dyno: I'm not entirely sure how to go about addressing this. It may be worth sacrificing IAT to run a more direct intake for the motor. Though packaging this could be flat out impossible given the constraints of the car. I should have removed the intake pipe to see if this made a difference but looking at this graph I now have something to potentially test in the future and think about. This one is from an old track day log in the OLD setup going through gears on track.
    • Oh, I forgot too, all the multimedia stuff captured and sold through things like people playing Pokemon Go. Pokemon Go specifically, can actually be traced all the way back to a CIA investment company too. So yep, they're watching everything. Not to mention the new stuff where they've worked out how to use WiFi signals to be able to map occupants inside of a building. That one would be something that I see being more used in public/government buildings, as you need to understand the signals when the room has no one in it first. It's not as easy as Hollywood would like you to think it is.
    • Followed ☺️ Assuming those are NEO rods, then at least 400kW all day.
    • Lets keep this going , Spotted this very stock V35 in Penrith and also saw a nice R32 FLY past me on Castlereagh rd , sounded really good.
    • Great work! Give it a clean up with some Emery paper, and I'd run a thread die over the threads too to clean them up. It will make reinstall much easier, and also life easier for the next time it needs to come out.
