Hey,

Had a search but couldn't find any relevant information.

I am having a few upgrades done, and installing a haltech premium ecu. This wil be running a Map sensor, so i can get rid of the AFM, but i can't find an intake pipe that includes the crancase vent return that would be long enough to eliminate the AFM. I have an atmospheric SSQV Bov, so don't need that return pipe.

The options i believe I have are,

1) Install a breather filter and have the crackcase vent straight to atmosphere and buy a universal 2.5" intake pipe

2)Have a custom stainless intake pipe made

3)Buy a silicon piping kit, block off the BOV return and extend with more silicone piping.

Any input on this would be great

Thanks

you mean a pipe like this replace this bit where the afm was

i have one like that, except mine has bov return as well and are at a 45 degree angle so they are directed towards the turbo (dont know about the crank case vent but there is a thread around here some where about the bov return need to be pointing towards the turbo not on a 90 like yours) then i just use 2x3" 45 degree silicone bends trimmed to get the right angles to hook up between the 3540 and afm.

The angle is only important if there is an afm

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
