i'm not sure if it'll work because the current tuning they have are in different octane term than ours.

But i could be wrong as i never read anything from the 350z guys using the 350z USA ECU.

PS> I'm guessing you are talking about the ECU not the Dash Computer?

Wouldn't make any sense to use the ECU. I'd say the US dash comp in order to get screen etc in engrish.

I have a US ecu in my 2003 sedan, part of the conversion from 8 speed to 5 speed auto. Type 1

It runs well, good fuel efficiency no pinging. Have not checked on a dyno though.

Need to also think about pollution control differences, my engine light is always on due to not having fuel vapor control. Eventually will find someone to turn it off.

Being 2003 model, only had to get the security number from Nissan. May be bigger issues with later models.

Hope this helps.

hi guys. Has anyone gotten any further with this?

I own a 2003 v35 350GT. I'm a noob in ECU management and interfacing. And would like your opinon/ suggetions for the questions below.

1. Are the ECU's for the M35, V35 and 350Z similar?

2. Are these ECU's interchangeble after tuning?

3. My ECU/ OBD currently talks Consult (or so i have been told). If i could change the ECU, would the OBD connector then talk in the standard OBDII ? (I would love this, as i could then use my android tab with the Torque App)

Any advice is appreciated.

What's the point?

Are you trying to tune, or get a replacement ecu?

Even within models there are many multiples of ECU part numbers, there are awd models, auto, manuals, etc. I don't see a lot of compatibility happening. The computers are physically the same for the vq35 models, and any model of that can have the program ripped, and sent to Uprev to decode and provide a tuneable file.

hmmm...thanks for that info mate.

the only question i have left is, what's the best way to display live Engine data while driving? I was looking for something like Torque or similar on Android.

Any specifics will be great.

hi Scott,

mate are you sure that a standard OBD EML327 cheapy from ebay would work on my 2003 Skyline V35 350GT ???

any specifics i need to look out for on the Torque App? only asking, coz i have tried a fair few times on my Samsung tab 3 with a ELM OBD Bluetooth thingy. I doesn't read the protocols and keeps going round in circles.

No idea, all I know is the 3.5L was able to keep being produced after 04 due to it being OBD2 compliant, unlike the VQ25. I assumed the standard OBD2 readers would work.

If they don't you are stuck with the usual Greddy touch or HKS OB link units, both of which work on the 2.5det. I have an OB link here I am trying to sell actually. Check it out.. ;)

      Could you modify this duct so instead it pushes the extra air through the radiator too and not down and out? For temps, I know it's not the greatest idea, but as a bit of a last resort, you could use a very intermittent misting spray onto the front of the coolers/rad. You don't want to be soaking them such that water is dripping off, but a small most on/off so that the water evaporates. That point of it constantly evaporating, rather than being soaked in water, will pull a LOT of heat out of the cooler. I'm literally thinking just the little mist sprayers for a garden from Bunnings. Being in a low humidity climate it will help even more! The other trick if you want to be ghetto is some shade cloth hung in the opening, and keep it wet. Pretty much now it's acting like an evap cooler on a house, but cooling the air you need to use to cool the radiator...   On a topic to think about too though, when air enters through the bumper, is it all nicely ducted from the edges of that opening back at a nice angle, or is it like most cars, and the edge of the opening just stops, and suddenly it's wayyy wider behind that? If it does the later, get it shrouded out at nice angles. When that opening changes too rapidly, it can actually cause a high pressure zone between the front bar and radiator, and limit air flow into that area, which means less air for cooling, as it effectively stalls the air, AND adds to drag...

      It doesn't look like there's a lot of options out there these days, and what's out there is performance oriented aftermarket stuff (with the GTR markup) I wonder if there are other cars with similar springs, after all its just a matter of length, diameter and stiffness. Alternatively, I did see coil spacers. Probably not the best option, but could be serviceable too.
