Just plug it into the OBD2 port and it will turn off with the ignition. :D

WRONG! lol sort of.

its not as simple as just plugging it in. if u plug red to red, the Touch stays on.. if you plug the Red to Orange, it will turn on n off with the ignition. make sure its red n orange.. u dont wanna short something. the orange wire plugs into your ACC power.

i think the ciggarette light is an addition to the non OBD readers..

Scott gave me the heads up before chopping. but yeh it says it in the book in the english part

mmm ... I don't think so ... I have had my Informeter working perfectly in my car for 6 months..

It is just called reading the Instructions.

maybe the later ones are wired different. i should take a copy of the book and upload where it says this

later models???

Back of the book in English it show's you.....you should have additional wiring attached to the plug....just plug and play. Mind you I have done mine different to Andy....I have a switch in between so I can turn it off and on!

This is what my book says, i dont know if its different, not much point in buying two to compare lol

Says Red to Red, may drain the power because instead of turnin off with the ignition, it stays on, and after some time goes into stand by. not really good for your battery.

the image that says red to orange- it will turn off with the ignition. Notice it also says for NISSAN and subaru..

I dont know. ide rather follow the book. plus being a sound engineer, i know what damage power draining can do to battery cells, and units that are sitting in stand by for extensive times.

Craig- your idea of having a switch is pretty good. It would break the circut not draining poower at all..but what would be the reason to turn it off while your driving?

and one other question, My injectors hit 94% yesterday. should i consider bigger injectors? whats a forum for this infor for injectors that fit without plenum raising it(i like the cover so i wanna keep it)

cheers

The second page of the instructions shows pretty clearly (IMO) that you connect Red - Orange on Nissan ODB cars and do not use the cigarette lighter.

94% injectors, nothing yet.. wait til you hit 100% lol.. You can set an alarm on the Injector so you know when you are in the danger zone. Mine is set at 95%. I usually only see 100% over 7000rpm.

What you need to know is if the AFR's are Ok. Get a Dyno run done to see what sort of tune you have going on.

Cheers

yeh mines connected red - orange. Ok now Im confused about what the debate is on :( lol forget it, it works!

um yeh i have an alarm set for 95% aswell just so i pull my foot off the accelerator lol

hopefully the AFM% is at 4.8+- like craig says. other wise im fecked.

Dyno run? for a AWD? in Melbourne? ill have better luck finding a unicorn than to find someone who wants to do a AWD Dyno for less that $600.00 lol

motor is about a 2 weeks off! :)

Talk to Scott about the dyno when you get a second....wouldn't say you have a problem above 4.8....mine ran at 5.0 for a very long time....and that wasn't what blew my motor!

Hey, if I can get one done in Adelaide for $90 Im sure you can get one done in melbs :( Might be worth asking if the SAU:Vic chapter is planning a dyno day any time soon, good way to get a cheap run in for the sake of checking numbers if you dont wanna spend too much cash on it (SA dyno day was $40 for me (non member), same place would normally charge me $90)

Customs have my informeter, I think.. Bastards.

craig- 2 weeks away is alright, at least this time you'll know to listen to warning signals. lol

Dunc - i'll get scott to help me find one, live 5 minutes from me. Customs? what do they think theres drugs in the plug or something.

Better hurry, he is selling the dyno soon. RE want $100 an hour now, what a rip.

RE's dyno is shit house aswell.. i remember seeing something about it being 20KW out or something.

$100 an hour for a useless company is stupid. i will NEVER take my car there.. a bunch of stuck up twats that dont know anything.

      Ball bearing turbos

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.

      Ball bearing turbos

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist

      Forced Performance Hta Turbos

      By jdniss · Posted

      Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.

      Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
