So i followed the above and installed the microswitch at the shifter. Only bit i can add to this thread that i had to use spacers below the switch to raise it of the plastic as the switch was hard up

There is no way you will be able to stall up a 3071 unless you open up the torque converter stator. That said, it should feel better with the wire cut still. I assume you are tapping the pink/blue ec

I just love seeing the stuff you come up with and actually get to work. It sure needs a hand to get off the line, maybe an extra litre would help :P

I have to slow my response down low...

No exhaust just poked the dump pipe, yerh foot to the floor.

But I can't understand y I'm stuck at 2200rpms when im trying to stall it up? Shouldn't it let me go beyond?

Not with a 2200 rev stall converter. If you want it to take off hard you went too big with your turbo, now you have to match the stally to the lag you bought yourself. Mine is a 3000 stall converter and it may be for sale soon. I will probably be heading for 3500 stall with 6 lockup clutches instead if 1. (if Kewish can sort me out with one...)

anti lag? you did not tell me of this scott :P

Cihan and I were talking about it, seeing I don't want to go too big with the stall converter and I don't want to spool the turbo with NOS I have very little choice at the moment.

Yes Alex, the 3.5 will help but that isnt getting a plain rebuild, if I ever get the funds I will be shooting for big numbers, too big for a Stagea to handle I believe. ;)

is this wire cut mod only limited to turbo stag's? what about v35s?

I have no idea, I would assume there is something similar in their ecu. Do you have a link to the ECU pinouts? I will have a look if you can find it...

I don't think that the V35/PM35/z33 throttle restriction is based off the same process as the NM35.

I believe its more of a electronic throttle table, that will only allow a specific percentage (or volts to be precise) of throttle opening at X load Y RPM. Not based off the brake signal as far as I can tell. I base this off the fact that I can alter the values in my tuning software. Anyone who has driven both cars will realise the difference.

No pic.

The VQ25dd ecu uses the same plug as the VQ25det so it should be similar but without the pinouts youre flying blind. I have the full M35 electrical book in front of me but I can't read Japanese...

I too can adjust the throttle sensitivity but the restriction is different, have you hooked up the software to see if you get 100%tps at stall? Perhaps its gone now with the re-flash?

yeah ive only got a jap version too

some v35s come with the factory snow/power switch that does the same throttle reduction/increase in sensitivity. i keep mine on snow 99% of the time but it has shown no improvement in economy... still 12.6L/100km

Snow will take off in second usually although I haven't played with the switch much in mine.

each car is different obviously, in my case it still uses first, throttle response appears to be around 10% of normal, revs stay below 2500rpm, and no kickback.

Wat?

So, you put it in snow 99% of the time, but it doesn't improve economy, so in essence your driving around a car that feels like shit for no benefit! I see no point!

The one and only time I use snow is when I'm putting the car up on ramps- because it locks front /rear torque. It will just drive up the ramp easy (obviously you don't have awd...)

Scotty, I haven't done a throttle % map, and it is different now. I have a completely different ecu, even to most of the V35's, as its a Gen 2 Ecu- Runs widebands not narrowbands from factory. But there is just no way there is the NM35 style restriction on our Ecus- stock, there isn't the torque of the turbo motor!

i only just calculated the economy after noticing the factory economy meter hadnt dropped....

using the switch is now just to make takeoff alot smoother... as the pedal is way too sensitive on the other settings.

As Scott said its due to the stock stall converter. Should work fine for the stock turbo....well it works great on my setup...

oh ok just realised you had a 3071...hmmm yeah no boost for you LOL

The pedal is way to sensitive....grow a set! This is a V6 not a nissan micra. Get over it or get another car

      Rear suspension upgrades

      People like Johnny Dose Bro might be laughing at my post because I accidentally added 100mm to my numbers. 350-355 is indeed the lower limit. 450 is off-road Skyline spec.

      What is the "compromise" that you think will happen? Are you thinking that something will get damaged? The only things you have to be concerned about with spherical jointed suspension arms are; Arguments with the constabulary wrt their legality (they are likely to be illegal for road use without an engineering certificatation, and that may not be possible to obtain). A lot more NVH transmitted through to the passengers (which is hardly a concern for those with a preference for good handling, anyway). Greatly increased inspection and maintenance requirements (see above points, both).   It is extremely necessary to ask what car you are talking about. Your discussion on strut tops, for example, would be completely wrong for an R chassis, but be correct for an S chassis. R32s have specific problems that R33/4 do not have. Etc. I have hardened rubber bushes on upper rear control arms and traction rods. Adjustable length so as to be able to set both camber and bump steer. You cannot contemplate doing just the control arms and not the traction arms. And whatever bushing you have in one you should have in the other so that they have similar characteristics. Otherwise you can get increased oddness of behaviour as one bushing flexes and the other doesn't, changing the alignment between them. I have stock lower rear arms with urethane bushes. I may make changes here, these are are driven by the R32's geometry problems, so I won't discuss them here unless it proves necessary. I have spherical joints in the front caster rods. I have experienced absolutely no negatives and only positives from doing so. They are massively better than any other option. I have sphericals in the FUCAs, but this is driven largely by the (again) R32 specific problems with the motion of those arms. I just have to deal with the increased maintenance required. Given how much better the front end behaves with the sphericals in there.....I'd probably be tempted to go away from my preference (which is not to have sphericals on a road car, for 2 of the 3 reasons in the bulleted list above), just to gain those improvements. And so my preference for not using sphericals (in general) on a road car should be obvious. I use them judiciously, though, as required to solve particular problems.

      Misfire/stalling issues

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Easiest way to know is to break out the multimeter and measure it when cold, then measure all the resistances again once it gets hot enough to misfire. Both the original ignitor and the J Replace version. Factory service manual will have the spec for the terminal measurements.
