WEEKEND UPDATE!

scotty had to remove and weld up my throttle body/afm, where the iacv valve should be. i will get him to barb it in the future so i can remote mount it.

all this was required to fit the euro spec top feed micra fuel rail. (its from the same engine, just a 10 year on updated coilpack version)

we then added various o-rings and shiz (scotty is a genius at this, i wouldnt have known where to start)

370cc neo/stagea injectors installed!

i then spent freaking ages trying to get a 33gtr pump installed in the stock cradle. eventualled managed to get it in there with a slight change in where it picks up from......

tank was drained of dino fuel and replaced with 20 litres of e85.......

i then pulled out my shiny new nistune fitted ecu. installed it, and primed the pump a few times. we found a small leak at the fpr, and just found it wasnt seated properly. scottty bent some welding wire and inserted it, holding the fpr down and leak be gone!

guess what.

it works.

took it for a couple of laps around the estate and it works fine, even getting some boost down very very low, so i have to be careful.

she is ready to be tuned!

apart from one small tiny thing.

the pick up location of the fuel pump no means if i go round a right hand corner with less than half a tank, it stutters hahah!

we filled her up with e85 and i went for another spin. shes fine. will drain the tank at a later date and rotate the pickup.

nistune, added 30% more fuel across the range to allow me to use e85 to get there. the car is running hella rich, but drives fantastic.

really looking forward to friday';s results.

next on the agenda is to finish the swift gti seats install. they are slightly higher up than the micra seats, but this is fine for now. will head over to finish welding the passenger on thursday and pick the car up for the tune.

f**k. yea.

literally the stock ecu with a daughter board attached to allow tuning of factory maps.

sure it doenst have duel maps, and the features of all the other options, but its the cheapest, and thats what matters! haha!

what do you run on the pulsar?!

yeah thats what I thought. good jerb

was just curious as pulsar version of nistune is just a daughterboard. its cheap, easy and effective for what you need for +T. however apparently skyline version is $$$.

(I have powerfc but know heaps of turbo and VVL pulsars on nistune)

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
    • FYI: Racebox RE7R Custom Tunes Released!   https://goracebox.com/.../2017-infiniti-q50-q60-re7r-tcm...   FOR GEN 2 (21+) VEHICLES, PLEASE SEE NOTE AT BOTTOM See more   But whomever tuned your car is the tuner you should go back to, AMS, Sonictune or BT Tune....
