Locating A Plug For The Power Fc Map Sensor Port... Where?

Hi all,

Im trying to locate a 3 pin female connector that plugs into the 3 pin port on the power fc ecu's to accomodate an external MAP sensor. Does anyone have an idea where I can source something that will fit?

Ive tried pulling apart a few computers and power supplies, but have had no luck yet. Jaycar and DSE dont stock anythign that comes close to fitting either.

Im beginning to think it will be easier to open up the ecu and solder on a diferent connector, or fit an external lead. Anyone have any suggestions before I do this?

Cheers,

Ian

I dont want to use the boost controller kit for the FC. I just want to hook up a pressure sensor for data logging, so I need the plug that comes with the apexi map sensor.

The apexi map sensor doesnt have the range of operation that I need, so im using a different sensor. Sourcing the plug is the problem, and buying a boost controller kit to get a 30 cent component isnt an option.

I am after the 3 pin version of this plug. The pictures below are for the plug that is for PFC's that use the 5 pin boost controller harness. Its more of an general electronics grade connector than an automotive grade connector.

nengun.com has the loom as a seperate part (ie not in the whole kit)

and you can also buy the map sensor seperately

i did this on my r33 to get boost display on the hand controller without the boost control kit

Sensor harness 3P For Boost con 415-A001

      Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway

      Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.

      I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.

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

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>

      I used to do that (sills with rubber jack block).. ... then I got side skirts, and there's no way for the jack to actually work there, the jack pad itself on the jack is too big. Is the answer to use a... smaller (?) jack? Hmmm.
