My first impression,

you didnt give me a opinion in the first place..

instead i got sh*t for you.

and what you said has no relation what so ever about this topic..

Is what you do, going around telling people they dont deserve there car..

If I told you dont deserve your car

what would you think?

Can't you go a day or two without thrashing the car?

HURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

DURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

hahaha...lol...

of course..I hardly drive it in the first place..

maybe once a week..not even...

and when i drive it..dont even hit full boost most of the time..

just cruz really...

Ive done the mods almost a month ago...ill be lucky if i even done 200km..on it...

LOL!

"I'm not sure if I can drive the car hard after doing mods and not checking it on a dyno with a new tune so I'll ask online and see....and drive it hard in the meantime"

Great thread, would read again

No you didn't, stop trying to claim you are a super mechanic, if you were, you would know the basics of engine tuning.

On topic, screw what everyone else says, it's actually fine to drive your GTR in that state. There's dial switch underneath the car (directly under the driver's seat) that adjusts fuel and power. Give that a turn until you find the car makes more power, then lock it.

No tuners, no ECU no worries :bunny:

wat?

So seriously, wat?

I say rock out with ya cock out. it's your car bro enjoy it however you want. hop in that mofo dial up 8,000rpm and smoke those haters next to you.

ppl alwayz be hating just cuz yo got the ballz to try some sh1t and got a hot car, they prob cruzn in some sht box. it will be cool. just don't wind the boost up past 22psi or so cuz thoze turbos wont make much more then that.

LOL. 'You' did these mods but don't know about ECU's and tunes?

Troll. :bunny:

Thanks lookingforboost and beer baron for your support...

Of course i knew about ecu its getting done soon..

Ive got the ecu...my tuner it just busy thats all...just the time in between thats..

Well I found out it is safe drive the car from other mechanics and tuners.

because it still runs on standard ecu and boost..

just as long as you dont rev it to redline or on boost all the time which doesnt come on until 4.5 - 5rpm anyway....or give it in top end...

it doesnt matter if i have bigger injectors or hi pressure fuel reg and fuel pump...

The car will still run the same as standard because its still running the standard ecu

so the fuel mixture will still be the same...I know i its putting more volume of air but

just as long as you dont drive it like you stole it it will be fine...

It will not run rich or lean. The only way it will run rich or lean is that if i have a faulty airflow meter or a oxygen sensor..

Fuel pressure does not matter, the pressure that does not get used or fuel will go back to the fuel tank as it normally does...

Ah sorry but no.

The car will not run as factory at all with larger turbos, injectors and so on that flow more than factory.

The ECU has not allowed for it, because it cannot know. As Trent said, you'll be lucky if there is no damage done from how rich it would have been running.

Fuel pressure does matter as well.

I think you need to get an understanding of how things work.

    • Next, remove the upper and lower radiator hoses, both are held with a spring clamp. While you are under there, tackle the Auto Trans cooler lines.  Again both are held on with spring clamps, and as mentioned above you should cap them on the radiator side with an 8mm cap, and on the car side loop them with a length of 8mm pipe - this will stop you losing a dangerous amount of AT fluid during the rest of the job If you've been meaning to add a sender for AT trans temp, this is a great time to do it; put a sender fitting into the passenger side line as that is the inlet to the cooler/radiator.
    • Next you need to remove the intake duct (as with pretty much every job on these cars), it is a series of clips you gently remove with a flat bladed screwdriver. They do get brittle with time and can break, and I have not found a decent quality aftermarket one that fits (they are all too soft or flimsy and don't last either) but the nissan ones are a couple of bucks each (ouch).  Once the clips are off (either 8 or 10, I didn't check) you lift the intake duct out and will see the reservoirs Undo the line into the radiator side cap (some bent needle nosed piers are awesome for spring clamps) and then remove the 4x 10m nuts that hold both in place.  I didn't get these pics, but remove the line under the radiator reservoir (spring clamp again) then remove that reservoir. Then you can get at the intake reservoir, same thing, spring clamp underneath then remove it. BTW This is a great time to put in a larger (+70%) combined reservoir that AMS makes..... https://www.amsperformance.com/product/q50-q60-red-alpha-coolant-expansion-tank/ They also make an Infiniti branded and part# version if that is your thing
    • To drain the Intake Heat Exchanger, there is a crappy drain plug in front of the driver's side front tyre: You should use the largest headed phillips screwdriver you had, and in my case I needed vice grips on the hose above as the plug was tight (tighter than it needed to be, since it has an o-ring seal).  After you have a tray down and open the drain, open the intake heat exchanger reservoir cap (drivers side one) and you should get a couple of litres of coolant To get to the radiator, you need to remove the plastic engine undertray. It is held on with a series of 10mm headed bolts and some clips. For the radiator, there is another type of crappy drain (kind of like a plastic banjo bolt) and you should attach a length of hose to direct the stream of coolant per this pic (otherwise the coolant hits the rad support and goes everywhere). The drain is on the rear of the radiator on the driver's side and a bit hard to find. Put a big tray or bucket down (5l won't be enough) and slowly unscrew the fitting by hand. You only want to remove it far enough for coolant to flow, it you unscrew it right out the whole fitting and direction pipe will come off and you will get a coolant bath (yum!). Undo the radiator reservoir cap and it should empty about 8l
    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You also need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator so you will need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. 2 other tools that really help dealing with coolant lines and spring clamps are Bent Needle Nose pliers Hose pliers Between them they will reduce the frustration (and injury) potential by about 1000% Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
