Hello,

I had once bought a Ross Balancer kit from the company, i am sure many of you have heard of them as they are a local australian company, the kit came with two magnetic sensors. Now these sensors have 3 wires coming out of them but I have no idea where to stick them, as a person using a piggy back ecu there is one main confusion. Even if i plug it in the ecu wiring look should i connect it with the stock ecu or the after market?

Is there someone noted in Australia that does this on a daily basis? I am keen to learn. Omega technical factories the new owners have told me to look for someone by the name of checkered performance australia but i only find crazy results in google and facebook. Perhaps all people will also benefit from this knowledge, especially thos who cannot afford a tuner to do this. I was surprized the maker doesnt have a jedi technique on how to install the item they have on sale and I need to get in touch with someone.

I really bought it as i knew stock cam sensor is just retard as poised to die anyday, plus id love to rev past 10K, as my engine is full tomei internals and solid lifters on with 270 degree cams.post-66871-14016840030476_thumb.jpg

There is a lot of discussion on these things (Ross crank triggers) on these forums already. You could do some searching around on here and learn a lot.

Piggyback ECU setups are not going to be a pleasant thing to make work with a crank trigger system. And if you have a crank trigger (with a proper aftermarket ECU) it's generally wise to still have the cam angle sensor, or at least a modified version of it for your sync. So throwing away the Nissan CAS is not as simple as you might hope.

Checkered is not "Checkered" it is "Chequered Performance". Look for STATUS as a user on here. That's him.

Oh no guys, that was the look coz it had been with the garage guy for 2 years, he still has the car. Needs proper cleaning and need to make really organised brake lines. Not to mention these guys are arabs and they kept on doing their thing saying "its gonna look awsome just wait and see". They had it for a long while, i will definitely make improvements once i get it back.

Send Yavuz at Unigroup Engineering an email and ask him if he can give you some insight into what is going on. Whilst i am sure any reputable workshop would be able to help you, Yavuz worked with Ross Balancers to design this crank trigger so he will be able to tell you exactly what you need.

Nah boys thanks alot i just spoke to him over facebook really helpful guy i never met anyone this helpful. He figured i had the wrong parts under 5 minutes.

Now next problem is will ross accept my returns and replacement or not? Never buy from a company during an acquisition. Worst mistake, or luck.

Dont buy these if u run a piggy back or fcon by the way as he says.

    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using. 
    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
