Would someone be kindly enough to post pics up of their AVCR location? Especially if it was installed under a single DIN! I am getting a custom plastic made for it.

Even if it wasn't under the single DIN, please include any mounting position pics of the boost controller. I've searched hours trying to get ideas!

Who has the most professional installation of the thing, I wonder.

Much appreciate it and many thx for your time!

yer dude go there, i have my pics up already just dont want to upload again..

i had my avc-r on the dash before that. looked good but every 1 wanted to race ;)

yes, they look awsome, thanks for the input!  

There is no restrictions in other states i think but NSW! (above the dash principle)

I am not sure on that so don't quote me!

This isn't the Boost controller, but i think the RSM is the same size?? even though there are no restricitions in WA about dash mounting, i didn't like the idea of having it stuck in the middle of my dash... all i've done here is remove the dashlight dimmer (which looked aftermarket anyway) and make a plate to fit in the holes left by pulling out those little plates. Cables all fit neatly into the dash and everything !

yer looks alright wld808 mine would be there to cos im thinking of bastards poping my window. but i hate that empty gap i have so i stuck in there.. i hide my turbo timer there tho, i guess urs is more like a "sleeper". (you got ur avcr working normally now?)

when i bought the car the avcr and afc were high up on the dash, was piss easy to move it i just had to cut a small hole in the top of the glovebox for the wires which you cant see. they both work just fine and i now also have the turbo timer with them. they werent even wired up when i bought it i had to do it all. i dont care much about the apexi stuff the only reason i didnt take them out is because it would take a long time to do and i cant use them on my next car. like i said before it would piss me off much more if someone damaged the door or window to steal them.

My friend also did exactly the same as pstanbis, but unfortunately it's not possible in an R33 as all the sensors for the climate control are there in an R33. He also at one stage took out his gauge sluster and mounted it in there with a piece of blanking sheet. That looked much better but I don't think it was all that legal.

thx pstanbis, if it not too much of a hassel.

Pandaemonaeon: yeah, as most of the people are scared of the pricks breaking windows, I am too. So I don't want it any where too obvious. So under the Din is alright. the Sunshade sounds good too. But I wonder how it's all done. And I want it to be undefectable! at least one off the list! LOL

You could do what I have done with my FBC hand controller and use a Flipdown DIN pocket under the H/U. An AVCR is a bit bigger so you would have to cut pieces out of it, but I'm sure it would still work. The flip down pockets should be available from any wrecker as they were in the R32.

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
