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.....

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
