When talking an engine like yours the term "mob i might try" should never be spoken

Go to someone that knows what he is doing and has a good reputation for this type of work

if I was you I would contact DVSJez and see if he can run it up and tell you what is going wrong

I have his number and to be honest I am farking sick of this shit.

If they tune rich all the time it will be the same again if I give it back to them

I will call him tomorrow

It is quite possible they haven't set the dead times for the ID1300s correctly

But then there is a heap of things that could not be set exactly correct that need to be which is why you need to take it to someone that knows what they are doing and not just the local mechanic

I do not understand, these blokes have been doing this for a long time and have people out there that swear by there work. You would think this would be easy for them to do right in the first place :/

I will not bore you blokes anymore and thanks for your suggestions :)

rockauto is where i got my ls coils

Where do you guys buy your AC Delco D585? Seems like this place has a pretty good deal, http://www.amazon.com/ACDelco-D585-Original-Equipment-Ignition/dp/B000BYD3Y0

http://www.ls2rb.com/buy.html

Goto that link for the supplier who makes them custom coil pack mounting brackets.

Hi Guys,

Looking at doing this conversion on my SR.. I have found plenty of wiring diagrams so Im pretty sure I can sort it out. BUT if there is a plug and play harness already made by someone I'd be pretty keen to get one.

Also just let me double check, the coils I should be looking to get are D514A? I can get 4 acdelco ones on a bracket etc from ebay for around the $160 mark including plug cables delivered to AUS

As for dwell it seems I should be chasing around the 4ms mark at idle to 3ms top end?

I am running nistune and e85

Edited by RSI497

To summarise the way I understand it;

- D514A are powerful and safe, D585s are powerful (guessing probably more than D514A) but can fire early if you run too much dwell, that is, over 4 ms. Firing early "can lead to major engine damage".

- Genuine coils (AC Delco or Delphi) are more powerful than generics.

I'd guess you'd want maximum dwell at maximum torque, because that's when its going to be hardest to ignite the mixture.

Has anyone on here swapped to the LS2 coils while using a Power FC?

I'm considering the swap and given the difficulty with changing the Power FC dwell settings, am wondering if the D514A coils will work fine on the stock Power FC dwell settings?

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
