Just bought a 2001 300gt and I've searched but still have a few questions.

Done the manifold clean because it had hot starting issues ( it was caked on in there!). Now I have high idle problems. I've tried the reset thingo but still no go. Not sure if I'm doin it right or is there a different sequence for 300's? Just brings up a picture of a spanner and says "pit" on the screen.

Also I've read that 300's don't have vdc bit mine has? Also has a electronic muffler and that sonar cruise control thing. There's a button under the dash near the muffler and vdc controls that says "auto". Anyone know what it does? Small round one.

Please move if not in right section. Cheers

It should work, it works on vq25det motors, which have similar ecus. The timing is the most critical thing, and it must be done when the car is hot.

Pit screen is totally unrelated. Pit screen is just a service reminder scheduled into the on board computer. It requires a manual reset you go through the menus to do.

What do you mean vdc? Traction control?

Auto is probably the rear mirror tilt.

Thank mate, guess I'm just a dud then

Ah k at second glance the button has a picture of a side mirror on it so it might be that?

Yea vdc (vehicle dynamic control) I believe it's called. Makes no difference on/off guess maybe in the wet or really flogging it.

Cheers

No v35 has VDC in the true sense of the modern system.

The rwd models have traction control, which cuts power once rear wheel slip is detected. It does not provide any assistance to gather the car back up into control.

Awd models as in stageas and g35x don't have any systems but the attesa awd system.

Yup, it tilts the side mirro down when in reverse to see the kerb.

What do you mean 'true sense'?

The 350GTs have VDC that can brake individual wheels when it detects loss of control based on steering wheel angle, wheel speed and yaw sensor. and it does much more than the basic TC that the 300 and 250GT has which just prevent rear wheel spin due to a heavy right foot.. Although VDC may have been an option on those according to the OP's info.

Really? Cool. I thought they only got TC not a proper stability system. RWD stageas only got traction control, no vdc. Which is a bit lacking by 2007.

yep, mine gets tested every now and then. There is an off camber roundabout near my house that gets stupidly slippery with the first rain of the wet season.

Yeah but even when you turn it off it still keeps the braking/antislip on so if you are used to a car stepping out and tap the brakes the anti slip kicks, or even go round a wet corner under slight brakes it kicks in only braking one caliper... weirdest/worst feeling if you try to correct it like a normal RWD car, almost conterproductive

I have heard that a simple 'press-off' will only turn it off up to 60km/h, and there is some other procedure for switching it off for all speeds, something like holding the button in for 10 sec.. never tried it myself, so I can't be sure.

It should turn off VDC and TC. but I don't think it turns off ABS.

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.

      My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?

      What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
