Have a few questions....

Has anyone translated the m35 wiring diagarams yet?

My ARX has the radar cruise which is great apart from the upper speed limit. Due to ?wrong? sized tyres etc, real top speed is 104 km/h at an indicated 110. Obviously this is insufficient as I wish to cruise slightly higher than that out on the country WA roads!

Yes, I know I can get aftermarket cruise fitted (not sure about flying Chris Rogers all the way over here tho!), but I want to try fiddling with the factory cruise first.

I haven't heard of anyone cracking the ecu yet and reflashing it...so, can I confirm if the cruise is a standalone unit or fully integrated into the ecu?

Is there an ecu piggyback/replacement that can alter things like cruise speed?

Possibly a simple solution is to fit a speedo corrector from Jaycar (KC5435) and use that to alter the speedo signal going into the car to show a lower speed than you are doing (so allowing a higher real cruise speed). Would this affect the running of the car much? It's probably something I'd wire up with a switch so it would only be used with cruise on the longer runs.

Thoughts/advice?

soon......very soon!

I dont think that Jay car unit will work on this car either (unless its a newer one that my friend had).. i think its for more older cars. a friend made one up for his BA ford and it wouldnt work dew to newer technology in the ford... which no doubt has been in the nissans for alot longer..

Any idea why not? The unit I was think of intercepts the electronic signal (pulses) at the gearbox and alters the pulse frequency up or down to change the speed reading interpreted by the car's computer.

Not really sure how that can not work.....

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
