got a Ruzic TSC , doesn't have much in the way of installation instructions.. I have done some work on my car Before eg, clutch, gearbox etc but nothing on the electronics side so could use some help with this one.....

most of the wiring looks to be straight forward, just match up the colours of the wires.. BUT I've pulled the dash, centre console and centre gauges, stereo etc to pieces, to connect wire to back of the front torque gauge to the + screw as described ( trying to follow instructions I found on here ) there is 4 screws with 3 of them marked os its not obvious which is the + one... is it the top right as I suspect.. ( when looking at the back of the gauge )..also is it ok to just tap into the stereo power + & - ,, as for the toggle switch can I use the aerial switch on the dash it only has two wires going to the back of it and the toggle switch only has two also, will that be ok ( the aerial has never worked but reception is fine )

If there is anyone in perth who has done this before and would be kind enough to come round and help or if anyone can just answer the questions above that would be awesome..........

Try checking out this post for some tips if your still keen to try it yourself

yeah thats the one I'm trying follow, lot easier when you have someone who's done it before with you......

I see he used the stereo power, I was just hoping there was somewhere more accessable...

The stereo power is right below the gauges (front torque split gauge) which I had to connect to, so I thought that was a logical place to get power from.

Good luck

paul (mountainrunner) is on these forums if you are stuck.

good buy :D

yeah he's just messaged me and said the best place to get the power is from the same place as ECU & also I think he said the wire to back of gauge is only needed for when you use external data logging !! just waiting for confirmation of that...will post up what I find out for others....

ok job done ...not exactly straight forward with those instructions and wiring diagram..firstly on all the paper work including the wiring diagram they refer to the G-sensor and then on the wiring table it starts talking about an Accelerometer ???? I asume that is is G-sensor ( if I'm wrong I've fkd it ) and also if you tap into the drivers side of the g-sensor plug (as these are wires the wiring diagram describes) then the Lateral G signal from G-sensor & lateral G signal out to computer-- are the wrong way round !!!!

anyway that was my experience ...... good luck to anyone having a go....icon9.gif

still haven't had a reply from mountainrunner, so I just took a punt and did it the way I thought made sense..

will test it out the track next weeksorcerer.gif

If you know how to improve the instructions I wrote please feel free to contribute, it wasn't a very difficult install but it could have been if I didn't get guidance from someone :down:

Yes, pretty sure accelerometer is the G-sensor located under the centre console in the R33/R32.

Certainly not criticizing your instructions, couldn't have done the job without them :blush:

as the unit doesn't come with any how to....

If I get time I might add some to your instruction tread..

The product is obsolete or almost obsolete.

It's Paul's hobby and not really a mainstream business.

He only made a couple for enthusiasts so there was not enough profit to put a lot of R&D in the instruction.

I think he has been making a few more as requested but he is busy with other projects now.

I intalled mine and thought the instruction was fairly straight forward.

You should get a power source that is on when the key is ON and remains on during Start.

I wired up a relay switch from the ECU.

      Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?

      Intro/R33 owner

      By f00stx · Posted

      Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).

      Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.

      I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
