I run ID's and if it's below 10 degrees my cars a bitch to start.

If the car has been on the trailer over night in winter and I try to start it at the track I have to wait for the temp to get up to about 10 before it will start.

It was tuned on a 35 degree day which probably didn't help.

Yeah on warm days, even anything above 15 degrees it starts first crank. Cold weather like today you can't even hear it fire a cylinder for the first couple of cranks.

ive read a few articles mentioning the same amount.... maybe it could work.

id be taking it back to tuner and retuning in the cold tho....

Not a bad idea getting a winter touch up tune for it that I can switch to in the cold. Shouldn't cost too much.

yeah I didnt have any great issues either....Maybe its those crappy old Nismo injectors Birds ;)

I'd say it has more to do with the climate the car was tuned in and where you're starting it. My car gets left out on the street these days and inside the carport it does start much quicker. Pretty sure the bottom of my hill goes below sea level too, lol. Injector type or size should be pretty irrelevant; the timing and flow of them in the tune will matter more.

Besides, Nismo injectors are love...dat resale value through the roof. Just like my "outdated" PFC!

Need a tiny electric blanket around your fuel line birds.

Heh I was actually imagining doing something like this, but wrapping the whole engine. Also considered giving the fuel lines one of these

No, I prefer to get irrationally angry at people who get nostalgia about things that are 'silly new things that little kids are into'

Like Pokémon.

How dare this forum autocorrect and add that little thing above the E.

stupid nostalgic forum

well if your car is rwc...why worry?

sif be scared of tmu...just smile and nod politely as you do what they ask, then leave and do what the hell you want anyway

hmm only problem would be too low otherwise car is okay

always rely on much worse cars than yours to steal the spotlight. have seen bagged R32's scrape on modest carpark entrances infront of cops and they just watch to make sure no one does skids.

lol yeah this is true :P or i could just walk, market is pretty close. the melb car meets had a couple of people rev bashing and doing a skid on exit at the docklands one. :/

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
