Finally installed Nismo mfd uprade, no more blinking red boost metre.

The factory boost sensors often just fail due to a cold solder joint. There are some posts on SAU about it, and it's a relatively simple fix.

I've had this happen to mine - and was fixed by reflowing the solder on the main connections. It may be worth checking this on your old boost sensor, as it may be still usable.

Yeah i know what you talking about, the normal boost gauge will get stuck on zero and no pressure display, has happened to me before. But Main reason i changed to the nismo boost sensor is because the stock sensor only goes to 1.2 bar and my tune goes to 1.5 bar so at max boost the stock sensor will go past 1.2 bar and start blinking red. Not only is it annoying but you also dont know much boost your making. With the nismo sensor it can read up to 2 bar which was exactly what i need.

A few members here have already paid and secured a set or two for themselves. Thanks Nismo for bringing back the 10.5in!

I guess seeing how much they go for used was too tempting. ETA on production is September with deliveries in October :)

Wow $4400. You can definitely pick them up for A LOT cheaper!

All Nismo needs to do now is start making those lovely 19in LMGT4's in silver asap

With the conversion of yen to aud and with shipping thats about right on the mark ! If you can get cheaper put me down for a set

Looking at the site - they are cheaper than $4400

Yeah they are cheaper on rhd site. Just under $4000 with cheapest delivery, but i think you are forgetting the import taxes that you will get stung which at that price will be around $660

wish the yen was better if you have a better lead I'd be greatful [emoji4]

Even @ $4k + another $1600 worth of semis + matching wheel nuts, plus new coil overs to replace my Std Vspec suspension - I'm getting into the $7k range - gulp. I might be a tough sell to the missus for the weekend car - when I make her drive a 14 yo oil burning xtrail on its last legs... :-)

      rb20de neo +t conversion - boost pressure sensor needed?

      By Neostead2000 · Posted

      Agreed with the rest. Also at least based on my own research, there are no readily available stock or close-to-stock RB20Neo maps that you could download and use as a base were you to buy a complete standalone ECU, and the regular 20DET maps don't really work well so you'd need to take it to a tuner if you have no experience. I installed an AEM V2 on my 20Neo+T and had lots of headaches until I got it to run and idle properly but I've yet to remap it fully. You have to start building up your timing and fuel maps entirely from the ground up; even the ones for a 25 didn't work at all.

      GOT SUM's RB34

      By klutched · Posted

      Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.

      My BMW 335i

      So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.
