i think the guide is very helpful to the people that know what they are doing,, unfortunately i'm not one of those people and i know the best thing for me is to take it to a mechanic and let him do it, but really i like to do things myself and like to learn stuff and i'm willing to take a chance to do it myself with the help of you guys,,, anyways i have many question and hopefully someone can help me

i'll start with the GTT stock solenoid

from the picture above you can see there are two hoses coming out of the solenoid, one goes to a pipe connected to the intake air filter (marked with a yellow line), and the other hose which is marked with a red line is connected to a (T joint), then this joint is connected to the wastegate actuator (marked in green line) and the other hose which is marked with blue is connected to the intercooler pipe.,,, in the Apexi solenoid there are 2 lables one is marked COM and the other NO, and in the guide paul made it says:

COM line should goto wastegate actuator

NO line should goto intercooler piping

my questions are:

(1) what about the hose that is marked with yellow? what am i suppose to do with it?

(2) i’m wondering if i can just plug the apexi solenoid in the same plug that the stock solenoid is plugged in (marked in purple circle)?

that is a picture of the apexi solenoid, there is a hole marked NC where the red arrow is pointing

(3) what is that for? do i have to connect a hose to it?

post-55570-1258111142_thumb.jpg

i’m guessing that what is circled in red on the picture above is the stock map sensor that needs to be replaced with the map sensor for apexi and connect it to the same hose that is connected to the stock map sensor,

(4) am i correct??

(5) out of curiosity what is that circle orange thing that is in the middle?

i really apreciate your help and thank you guys in advance.. i know that i asked many questions so all your answers and suggestions are appreciated

go and read

everyone else is capable of doing it themselves, either read and learn more or get a mechanic to install it

most guys wont reply as they have been helping guys install boost controllers and t'vavles for the past few years

they get sick of replying with the same answers every time. there must be over 100+ how to install boost controller threads

there would be literally dozens on the powerfc boost kit and the AVCR kit (they use the same solenoid, wiring and vacuum tubes).

so you could search on those, you could read the PFC FAQ

you could read the numerous how to boost controller threads, you could look in the tutorial section

you could google boost control kit how to and so on

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.

      Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.

      Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
