I went and got my car from the smash repairer's, the door mirror rust and rear bumper scuff are fixed, and the new spoiler is painted and on.

Pics plz??

How much was the rust component? ta.....

Put the Nismo mats in - I'll get you a photo soon Josh.

Also reconnected the Cruise Control and the F-con. Sadly as soon as I started the car with the F-con connected I had no throttle and a fault code appeared.

Disconnect F-con, throttle came back, fault code disappeared.

More work required sadly...

Did you play with the throttle curve at all Ryan? If so, I would put it back to stock. Mine will fault occasionally, but it is still running fine most of the time as a daily.

The stock ecu is checking the voltage outputs from the pedal and throttle continuously, if it detects even a slight variance it will fault. As the pedal voltage goes through the cruise and the Fcon it wouldn't take much to affect the resistance. You could try cleaning all the plugs, and perhaps disconnecting the cruise and see if the Fcon works again?

Drove very slowly until I could pull over & disconnect my AFM.

I've been wondering for several years when it would fail & what it would feel like.

Not as exciting as you might think. :/

Yeah I have mate. I'll put it back to stock and give it a try.

I've already disconnected the cruise, made no difference so I reconnected. Works fine with the F-con disconnected so it's either map or setup related on the F-con. DAMMIT!

Heh. Not exciting at all. Last time I forgot to reconnect it - my fail. Pretty easy and not incredibly expensive fix thankfully!

You don't need the afm anymore Ryan, you just need to sort out the fcon. :P

I reset all the ecu's in my car yesterday, now I have no airbag light flashing, and the engine light is off. First time I have had a clear dash since I bought it 4 years ago.

It did have an 'app' code, which I assume is Accelerator Pedal Position, I have another sensor on order at Nissan to rule it out. Hopefully that's all it is, otherwise I will have to disconnect the cruise for a while I guess. If it keeps going into limp mode then, I will be going for a new ecu, either a 350z Haltech platinum pro or a Link g4, for the throttle and cam drivers. That should fix it.

How much was the accelerator position sensor Scotty?

finished off the rest of my suspension swap over

the rear gtr springs don't fit stagea shock tops

and the front gtr springs were a lot longer than the stag ones too

so now i have eibach springs with gtr bilsteins

front height is perfect (though the springs are only just captive at full droop (middle circlip height)

rear is sitting a log higher than i want, possibly higher than when i started (lowest circlip position)

any idea how much it would cost to get new groves made for the rear shocks?

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
