You would, you don't expect much from your car :P

but.....Nismo + Emanage = WIN!

Pity I may be peeling the E-Manage back off!

Good to hear you've got the boat anchor going again Craig; what was the cause of all the drama (this timenyaanyaa.gif)?

I fitted my Commsman cruise control this afternoon; took around 3 odd hours, I wasn't in a rush and wanted to do a neat job of my wire splicing (also tidied up a few existing add ons prior to my ownership).

The kit goes together very nicely, with more than enough wiring length to make all your connections, and with a quick "walk through" on the setup with Leon this arvo; thanks.gif I had it up and running in no time. The OEM gain settings are spot on IMO; you can easily notice you've engaged it, without being obtrusive, and it reacts brilliantly when presented with an incline or decline. I ran out of time today to program the steering wheel controls; but it's literally 5 minutes work to sort that out tomorrow.

I'm going to add a couple of pics to the install guide on the "Awesome" forum over the weekend; as I moved the position of the Earth lead in the Steering wheel , and I found an easily accessed ignition switched 12v power source. This will hopefully speed up any further DIY installs.

Thanks again Leon, if an electrical buffoon like me can sort this install; anyone should be able to manage it.whistling.gif If you don't have one of these; get one now.thumbsup.gif

So far I've seen enough to know that there's no speed limiter, no throttle limiter, and you can retune to suit whatever mods you want to do.

= more awesome than Nismo! :nyaanyaa:

Cam can you confirm this? Completely removes the stupid throttle limit?

Look forward to it Dale, I have to get mine in still. 3 hours sounds good!

And Dale probably counted the time I spent chatting about nothing in particular, haha. I know he spent a fair bit of time probing wires to find a suitable power source where I didn't have to. I've been asked to compile an install PDF (that is more concise than my current rambling thoughts) & so look forward to Dale's inclusions. Thanks mate :thumbsup:

Turns out the wire cut mod makes a difference in the wet. :whistling:

Yeah! Told ya so.

I think you will find if you try to 'measure' it, there will be a difference in the dry too.

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
