Why all the secrecy?

WTF is an SLD?

dyslexic LSD?

nevermind found it:

Ahh so THAT's what these things do. I see them on IM when I search for M35 ECU and wonder WTF are they....

and speak shit it does.

It modifies the speed signal to the ECU from 140kph.

Not sure what the ECU does from 140kph as I couldn't understand it, but there is definitely mention of it changing the "normal" tune due to the "high speed".

Just putting it out there, I know no more than that :rolleyes:

I shouldn't think its secrecy - just easier to email stuff than try posting it on here sometimes. Speed limit defenders have been around for ages they do not harm the ecu in any way. - only JDM vehicles are limited to 180 all your aussie assembled cars can go as fast as their engines will allow so its not so radical. Of course doing 200km/hr down your local highway is irresponsible but there are plenty of tracks where you can exceed 180. Nistune, E-Manage and all aftermarket ecus will get rid of the speedlimiter as wll. Skyline owners just snip the speed signal wire or put a switch in it to defeat it.

Kiwi is correct & its alot easier to just send you an email with all the info (i have translated the japanese fitting instructions)!

Kiwi is correct for C34.

Consider this though, with the "Speed cut defender" option turned on in Scott's emanage (which is installed properly), the ECU's speed limiter still kicks in.

OP is referring to the NM35 install, not a C34 install.

If you have the instructions for install into an M35, then cool.

Im just offering what i know, take it or leave it, i really dont care! I just remember how frustrating it was when i went to install one of these and no-one knew anything about them! Yes the one i did was for an rb25 not a vq35, but the principals are the same; I have a wiring plot diagram of the vq35 ecu & translated fitting instructions (with switch pos etc) for the sld (yes fitting instructions, unless you are psychic and know where everything goes - if so help him & tell me the lotto numbers while your at it)!

There is no speed pulse input in our ecu, the signal goes down the CAN line like I have said. You would need the M35 specific unit and it would just plug into the OBD2 port I would assume, unless you cut the CAN line and intercept the signal, in which case you can forget it, not a smart idea. If you have the wiring diag, take a pic and post it, please. :thumbsup:

So wrong...

So condescending...

Just what is so wrong?

That it is easier to send info as an attachment to an email than post it on here?

That SLDs have been around for a long time?

That they do not harm your ecu (if wired correctly naturally)?

That cars sold on the Japanese domestic market are speed limited whereas your aussie (or NZ assembled) are not?

That 200km/hr on the local highway is irresponsible?

That 200km/hr is possible on many race tracks?

That (some) Skyline owners jist cut a wire to the ecu plug to defeat the speed limiter?

That just leaves the question of the E-manage and after market ecus getting rid of the speed limiter.

I will accept that you have been unable to wire your e-manage so as to defeat the speed limiter and you may be right that it cannot be done with your car although I would be suprised

But replacing it with an aftermarket unit will definitely do the trick.

There is a VQ powered NM Stagea drifter (albeit a manual ) running around here with a wired in Link and that can go as fast as its little wheels will turn.

It has already been explained Kiwi and the VQ30 doesn't have an electronic throttle which is one of the the issues.

To the OP, understand completely what cutting the CAN line might do before installing this device.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By feartherb26 · Posted

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
