Can we save the bitch fights for Facebook of someplace equally full of useless shit?

nup....simply don't read it if you don't like it.

Forums are about discussion Cam. Thanks for your pointless though!!!!

:action-smiley-069: Hi Craig

Discussion, yes absolutely, yet the only time I noticed you in this here thread was when you started shitpost-attacking Hypergear (warranted or not).

Do we really need have this kind of BS on what is generally an informative forum? Leave the bitchiness to the kiddies on Facebook.

Also, how would I know I don't like it if I didn't read it? Your logic is flawed mate.

Oh, I know, perhaps type "Shit post attack" or "shit stir post" as the first line of similar posts in future and I won't read them Craig.

Maybe others wouldn't be subjected to such childish finger-vomit as well.

Ok back to me asking questions that have probably been pondered upon by many before. I have read many posts but i'll add it here to attract fresh ideas.

Cable throttle :P

Driving my M35 as a RWD manual with an electronic throttle (the delay in response) is massively annoying. I'm hoping to get my emanage tune looked at to see what can be achieved and i read a post from years ago where Scotty had a play with an emanage + cable throttle with the auto, I also had a read of the adaptronic build with cable throttle.

Knowing what people know now about the various ecu's what info would be relevant for me wanting to swap to a cable throttle.

I'm at the stage now with my M35 that it's now time to focus 100% on getting it to run well and be a ball to drive.

Cheers

The m35 with cable throttle and adaptronic is mine. It is great. The only issue is with the autobot not kicking back which for you is no issue. So yeah go for it!

Seriously don't bother with the cable throttle, I originally had Josh's throttle on my car and although admittedly it was with the emanage, the Fcon feels so much better. The throttle response is instantaneous with the brake cut, the only lag is due to the large plenum size. It took me quite a while to sort out the cable arrangement and weld bits on the pedal in the correct spot too. I am definitely sticking with the electronic throttle now.

By ditching the electronic throttle the ecu is in limp mode, meaning the cams need to be controlled by the standalone. This will likely never be done aftermarket as well as the stock ecu can control them.

The Link Fury with plugin loom is now tuned and running perfectly in Rick's car, no errors and everything is stable. We will post a vid soon. It's the first standalone other than the Fcon to be successfully installed without losing functionality or or that factory drivability, as a standalone should be, and this one can be tuned by anyone without knockoff software. :P

Does the Fury control the VQ25det cam timing or do you still need the OEM ECU in there?

It can, but that would put the stock ecu into limp mode, which would cause a knock on effect of loosing functionality. We needed a setup which retained all stock drivability without throwing any codes, similar to the Fcon, hence keeping the stock ecu in place and happily running the cams and throttle as per OEM, which is working as planned.

We will likely be looking at aftermarket control of the cams and throttle down the track, as this ecu does support it, but it will require a standalone auto controller or manual conversion, which is more than most can afford. Do I think tuning the EVCT from stock will transform the tune? No. I doubt it would be noticeable, at best 5 or so kw in the midrange from my discussions with a few tuners. Perhaps using aftermarket cams it may help more, but the stock gearbox is at it's limits with the current crop of highflow turbo's anyway, even the 350z 6 speed would struggle with the torque I suspect.

The fact that a fixed timing and fuel map can now be used with 2 step launch and flex, hopefully ditching the unreliable AFM and fixing the gearbox line pressure issues, things are looking promising. With the upcoming turbo spool improvements the days of laggy launches should be behind us. Near instantaneous boost on the stock converter should be achievable soon, and I for one can't wait. 300+kw and stock like response is the goal we are working towards, and it should really improve the 1/4 times.

Keep you posted. :)

That's great news Scotty; you boys have brought to bear some serious knowledge & experience to get this off the ground.

Well done.

top info Scotty.

I'll try sort the brake cut mod asap and report back with results with the manual. I should have sorted this mod ages ago but i wasn't sure which direction i was going to go in.

Ok as promised here is a video clip of my stagea with the link G4+ fury installed.

The car is completely standard other then 3" exhaust.

All ecu work by scotty and myself and dyno tuning performed by Chasers motorworks...

Very interested to see the culmination of all the playing and experimenting.

Hope you guys ultimately achieve that goal.

Would certainly make me dream of owning a turbo M35 again...

It's an absolute achievement Scotty to get to this stage and all the hard work that has gone into this

Controlling the line pressure on the auto will be huge as well when it gets sorted

Will be a bloody quick car once all said and done

But the auto will be the weak factor hopefully not picking up pieces off the road

Bring on antilag is all I can say

Very interested to see the culmination of all the playing and experimenting.

Hope you guys ultimately achieve that goal.

U could always accidentally crash you current one again and get back to an nm35.

Great work Scott....another step forward bro.....best alternative so far.

    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
    • So, a bit of a side trip, but one that might be interesting for people with JDM cars and japanese head units. I know @Pac previously posted about a carplay/android auto adapter he installed which used the AUX input, and @V35_Paul put in one of the Tesla style units that replace both screens. The option I went with was a Lsait LLT-YF-VER5.87_2 (https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8GB-Android-Multimedia-Interface-for_1601187633672.html). Price was $1,150 for a single unit although they are much cheaper if you are willing to buy 2....$857ea. Make you you get the version 2 not version 1, it is faster and has a better UI - this is the manufacturer listing: http://www.lsailt.com/product/348.html. BTW if you've never bought from Alibaba before, don't be concerned....these guys can't stay in business unless they are responsive, ship fast etc, they were excellent (probably faster shipping than most local places) So, this was my task for a lazy Sat afternoon....looks complex but was all done in a few hours (it probably helps that I had some of it apart before so it was a bit familiar). I also decided to add a HD USB drive recorded at the same time and the unit also supports an aftermarket reverse cam (if you don't want to retain factory) and also AV in and HDMI out It looks much worse than it is, in fact in was genuinely all plug and play (no custom wiring at all). This video was pretty good (skipped a few steps), unfortunately they are an Aussie seller but no longer sell this unit (I guess Carplay/AA adapters are easier to install and much cheaper) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5hJfYOB8Dg
    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.
