Yes its been awhile since ive been on here...

Turbo went pop the other week now all i have is a loud gushing whistle with no boost.

Im going to be getting the turbo pulled out and hi-flowed by hyper gear, when i get it back ill be throwing in 4 mods

FMIC - HDI GT2

Boost controller - Gizzmo IEBC

Tunable ECU - possibly Microtech

Coilovers - ???

Im in Hunter Valley NSW and im pretty limited to where I can take the car to get it fitted with ECU and Dyno'd I was thinking blacktrack in Thornton as they are the only ones i know of with a AWD dyno. They are a Microtech dealer so my question is has any one got a Microtech fitted to thier M35 yet? is it worth giving it ago? has it been failed already? any input would be greatly appreciated

Cheers guys.

Good luck with that one, as far as I know only the Emanage Ultimate or HKS Fcon Vpro have been successfully fitted and both of those options took a fair amount of R+D. Do they have the ecu pinouts yet? What do they plan to do with the electronic throttle and cams?

Hey mate,

Yeah i havn't even looked into it that far yet Ive sent them an email asking what they could recomend and ill see what comes back I guess.

Yeah i was the first S1 to be fitted by Cihan back in the day with Greddy Emanage Ultimate (1 small step for SAU Kind lol) and i would prefer he did this car too but as i am in NSW and he is in Melbourne im in a bit of a pickle and have to look at other options i guess. I did send Cihan an email but have not since heard back from him, Maybe he is a little flat out.

I'm willing to guiny pig the ricewagon but yeah i need more information whats the issues you mentioned before about "Do they have the ecu pinouts yet? What do they plan to do with the electronic throttle and cams"

If they use the P1ggyback version it may work but why can't they use the Emanage Ultimate? Microtech don't have a good name on here from the research I did. Common: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/385885-microtech-tuning/page__p__6155745__hl__microtech__fromsearch__1#entry6155745

You have a few options I guess:

Drive down like Craig did, I can install the Emanage and drop one of my tunes on to get you to Campbelfield where Cihan's dyno is located. (Yes, he is very busy atm)

Ask Craig nicely to wire an Emanage in for you, then get Jez to tune it on the central coast, he has tuned Craigs once so may be able to sort you out.

Ask Blacktrack to install something, can't help you there but I hope they know what they are doing. Do Microtech even have a base map for you to work off? OEM Crank triggering would be required at a minimum.

Maybe itll be easier to get the turbo swapped over and other goodies fitted drive it down to melbourne for a weekend and get e-manage installed and dyno'd.

Mate if possible can you pm me with what i need to order for the emanage ultimate (harness etc) also a price to fit it. I was planning to pack and send the car to WA where im moving in 4 weeks but i guess ill just drive it once its installed and sorted. what a way to take it for a test drive ey?

Cheers mate and thank you.

not sure about the dump yet just need to get it running first lol... and im running out of time before i leave. But once i get started there wont be any thing holding me back. I just need a good base to start from. and then ill tinker a bit more. are you willing to sell your old stock turbo housing at all? that way i can get that sent to hyper gear and get it rebuilt and sent up here and swapped out with my old one and ill put my old one up on here for sale as a donar.

Sorry haven't had seen scotty's dump in use yet! Maybe Aaron might know lol!!!!!!

But yeah, m35's need a good dump......... ;)

lol.

The BC's are definitely worth the $1200 or whatever you pay. I got the cheaper red ones and others have the gold version, mine have been great and reliable for over 3 years.

The turbo I have here is still perfect so you could imagine I don't want to wreck it. I find it useful for jigging pipes etc also. There has been a bit of interest in turbo swaps though, perhaps I should lend them to Stao, or at least do it for my customers. Surely there are still a few failed housings floating about...

You go near Sydney. Just had my turbo done at precision turbos. Ss1pu. I'm thinking of doing the drive down aswell for tune.

Are you sure it wasn't a Sierra Stage 1?

    • Hey guys! Y'all are the masters so figured I'd check in on a few items here. - My engine sounds ever-so-slightly more raspy than the other NA RB25s I've listened to. It's barely noticeable but definitely a slightly different sound. - When I back off the throttle at high RPM, I will sometimes get a pop out of the exhaust, assuming this can be diagnosed as misfire. Some history on the car: - Had an exhaust leak in auction sheet but was claimed to be fixed by seller (bought from USA importer).  - Car's coil packs and sparks were replaced when it was sold to me, but unsure on what the gap is and whether the coil packs are correct.  - A prior mechanic had misdiagnosed a pilot or throwout bearing sound as LSPI/detonation. Had played with timing a bit, pops/raspy sound of engine just got worse. Got timing reset. - Had failed emissions a few times. First time went in as is, failed. Second time, replaced cat, still failed, running rich as hell. Third time replaced o2 sensor, passed. Car still smells gassy though. - Timing belt and valve cover gasket also replaced.  - Gas mileage is... low. about 350-400K per tank.  Any idea if I'm having any serious issues here or does this all sound like normal old NA RB stuff and I'm fine to drive it with the pops/slightly raspy engine? If it'll help, I can get drop a video of the sound of the engine.
    • So....to find any R chassis part number, get your VIN (will be something like ER33-xxxxxx for you) and go to: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan and enter it. From there you have access to a web version of Nissan's part system, FAST. It is a bit tricky to get used to, so maybe have a shot and post up what you think.  You can also search by general model but note in some cases your car might have different options so VIN is safest.  On diagram 211 I got 14075-75T16 for Connector, Water Hose If I search for part 14053‑21U10 that you posted, that is also a water hose but not the one bolted to the plenum and 14075‑04U00 is the fitting where the water hose goes into the block.
    • Yeah now we are talking I much prefer coolers in the front middle because it lessens the chance of a small bump to a corner stopping the whole event. I was thinking the AT cooler can move out of the radiator, delete the AT/engine coolant interwarmer and mount a separate cooler with a thermoswitch somewhere further back as is common in racing, that would be one thing. Beyond that, the engine oil cooler is an obvious one to move to the wheel arch, potentially one on each side, but unused space is an issue. I did have a earlier pic with the bumper off but it doesn't show how busy the corners are: DS is full of the auto driving sensors and PS is totally fully of windscreen washer fluid reservoir But ultimately I was hoping to keep the AC, and the water/air heat exchanger is fundamental so it is not just the radiator that needs to be in front BTW here's airflow to the rad as it ran at the track (one horn is gone now and I'll remove the lights next time):
    • your right the maps for Australia came out in 2017 but are 2010 maps. i got the updated maps SD card put it in and it was the same. Same maps in my Brothers Nissan Patrol. 2020 i think his car is
