Spends alot of money on boost controller. Spend $0 on engine management. You may need to rethink priorities. Anything above 10psi the stock ECU will just go into R&R "Rich and Retard"

Doesn't matter when boost is OVER 9000

On the topic(ish)

Anyone know how to change the display from kPa to kg/cm2?

none of the online manuals show how to do it

im still trying to find the box for mine and check the japanese on the back. im 99% mine is stuck on kg/cm2 but xspeed set it up for me and the car is stripped so i cant test...going for another look now.

but either way it def didnt read kPa. was either Bar or kg/cm2 as when i had it at 16psi it read about 1.10

just found box and realised it was hkpa, therefore 1.10 was spot on. nothing on the back in japanese mentions changing units

So it was the alarm/immobiliser causing the issue.

The wire that id spliced into to power the EBC was the 'ON' wire from the ignition. Unknown to me (as ive recently purchased the car) the alarm/immobiliser was also spliced into that line. So it seems that when the controller was active (higher boost selected rather then bypassed, ie: OFF) the alarm/immobiliser cracked it and turned off the car.

I've found another power source and can happily run 12 psi without a problem.

Thanks to those that offered help and advice.

bit of a revival. but do you need to have the boost line hooked upto the unit ?? or does it work normally without it ?? obviously it wont show the boost pressure. or does it need to see pressure to tell the solenoid what to do ??

    • I downloaded the apps (for windows) and Consult 1 doesn't have this function on it for the Consult 1 plug which I'm pretty sure all Skylines have. You would think someone would have a workaround after 30 years for all Skylines which have ABS.
    • Also, I don't know the actual ABS system on the skylines, but a sneaky thing could be a piece of electronic equipment that makes the ABS think you're moving, and then same piece can send a signal for a locked up tyre... Activate ABS without slamming brakes...
    • The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.
    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using.
