Yeah but wouldnt i have to take it to melbs for the emanage anyway to be tuned ? :) (im in brisbane)

that can come later..and the ecu compared to a nismo is cheap.. emanage ultimate $899. nismo ecu - $1250

i want plug and play i mean plug and drive! for the time being :down:

S/H Emanage Ultimate with loom cost me $650. Cihan gets up there occasionally, you could get a group buy on install and tunes. :)

You have to understand, the Nismo is not a specific tune for your car. It may handle exhaust, perhaps cooler but any highflow or intake mods and the tune will drift far from satisfactory.

Where are people getting these HDI kits from for M35's who can source them ? ive seen the blitz ones online.

and RS4T .. the fcon - wouldnt that be suited for a c34 not an m35? its either impul,nismo or a tune for an emanage i believe.

HDI are in Sydney and you can contact then off this forum. Do a search for HDI.

Price I believe is around $900 with the slimmer fan included.

If you can find them let me know and I will find a ph number for you.

Cheers

Nup, if you have a good tuner for it the FCON is the preferred piggyback for M35 considering it has a plug and play harness for VQ25det.

Problem is finding a tuner that ISN'T in Sydney :)

For HDi's contact details, see the other thread: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...t&p=5445568

Ive done some research on here regarding tuning the fcons, and Im just a skeptic really - its a fair punt for something that mightnt work at all. Admittedly most of the posts regarding the Fcons are from 2007 or so, but they all seem to indicate that people have tried to buy the software/keys for the software and it hasnt worked.

Just to clarify on your last statement mate, do you have an FCon in your 32, and have the software installed on your laptop to tune it yourself?

Correct. i've had it for years now. no key or anything required..

my only problem is its japanese. but you can still tune and do most things easily.. can also use all the data log features and read them easily. i had a friend touch up my map a little also with a japanese reading friend to help assist.

when i get the car back together, i will spend the 300 or whatever and buy what i have posted in the link above to get the english versions.

What about these guys - www.g-zone-r.com

I noticed one of their chipped VQ25DET ECU's on Yahoo auctions. It seems they tune all the M35 ecu's out there!

I wonder if they could pass on some technology to SAS or someone so we can have ours chipped here. Im sure they could do a simple chip with boost and speed limit cut...

All remap services are a re-flash... not so much a chip from what I have gathered... oh, and it is hard enough to get them to respond to a remap request with the requirements laid out in an email, let alone getting in a conversation with them about selling one of their readers.

they are a remap service, require your ecu (and maybe car also) for this service. service is located in japan :cool:

G-Zone don't require your car, nor do Mine's, Impul, Ks etc.... only Nismo do (Damnit!)

hmm sounds like my best option is either seeing if a local can tune it or taking it to sydney for a fcon-v tune or melbs for an emanage.

hmm im hoping someone in qld has tuned these to some degree.. i dont care what ecu. if the fcon-v can piggy back and be tuned correctly so be it. as long as it can be done and im no test pilot ending up with a failed combo.

Call GTAuto in Brisbane, iirc they can tune Fcons.

found the harness connector at this link and its part number for the fcon-v

Nah, it is looking like the F-con will have a tuner in Melb soon.... possibly :)

    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
    • OK, so regardless of whether you did Step 1 - Spill Step 2 - Trans pan removal Step 3 - TCM removal we are on to the clean and refill. First, have a good look at the oil pan. While you might see dirty oil and some carbony build up (I did), what you don't want to see is any metal particles on the magnets, or sparkles in the oil (thankfully not). Give it all a good clean, particularly the magnets, and put the new gasket on if you have one (or, just cross your fingers) Replacement of the Valve body (if you removed it) is the "reverse of assembly". Thread the electrical socket back up through the trans case, hold the valve body up and put in the bolts you removed, with the correct lengths in the correct locations Torque for the bolts in 8Nm only so I hope you have that torque wrench handy (it feels really loose). Plug the output speed sensor back in and clip the wiring into the 2 clips, replace the spring clip on the TCM socket and plug it back into the car loom. For the pan, the workshop manual states the following order: Again, the torque is 8Nm only.
