Hi my 34 boost sensor has broken. Now im chasing a new one. I tried Ebay and the normal places so i decided to see nissan.

They looked the part up and of course there is none. There system say the part is no longer made aswell but then says see part 22365-6p51a which is a nissan navara boost sensor which

has the same plug and look very similar so my question is has anyone used the navara sensor.

No brain fart, today at least....

That one above is the Map sensor for the ecu, I assume it has the same terminal setup, but are you after that or the boost sensor for the gauge in the dash?

My problem is with the boost sensor at the back on the firewall. I think its the Map sensor but written on the part is boost sensor which is kinda the same thing.

On R34s there are 2 MAP sensors. One is for the gauge and is usually on the driver's side of the firewall, and the other is for the ECU (to know when it has boost) and is more central. I don't know exactly where they are on R34s because my Neo is in an R32 and therefore I have the R32 gauge sensor (to the outside of the brake booster) and the ECU sensor is actually bolted to the top of the engine because there isn't an appropriate place on the R32 firewall.

The sensor in the OP photo appears to be the ECU's boost sensor.

It's not a MAP sensor in the typical term. The only function it provides is boost monitoring. If more than 14psi is seen it provides the ECU with a fault code.

I believe that's the only fiction that it provides.

i was under the impression it did more then just detect 14 psi and chuck a fault code. They found mine was broken when tuning and repaired it that was well over 12 month ago and now its fully f**ked and the car wont even boost with out chugging. i was running over 14 psi with no enging codes with a nistune.

With Nistune you can uncheck the monitoring of the boost sensor. Just like you can do the same for the TCS/ABS systems if they aren't present.

You can't run 14 psi on a standard Neo ECU anyway, because it will chuck a wobble well before you get there anyway (R&R - and probably hit the TP limit from the AFM signal). So you need Nistune to be able to even think about it. So you would just turn off the sensor in Nistune anyway. But if you didn;t want to, you could always arrange for the equivalent of a boost T bleed arrangement to limit the amount of boost that the sensor sees. A simple self-relieving pneumatics pressure regulator would probably do the job. Set it to no more than 10 psi - that's all the sensor would ever see. Job done.

It's not a MAP sensor in the typical term. The only function it provides is boost monitoring. If more than 14psi is seen it provides the ECU with a fault code.

I believe that's the only fiction that it provides.

It does *something* else in the ecu. But what exactly is hard to pinpoint or use to tune.

In nistune there is a boost duty table. It affects that which in turn affects fuelling.

There was a guy that accidently hooked his up to the inlet manifold so it was reading vacuum and the car ran super lean and was un driveable.

All great information but my original question is to do with the replaceing of a broken unit with the navara equivlent that nissan say will work and is linked to now that the origanl unit is no longer made part number

22365-6p51A instead of the 22365-6p500. How would i go about making sure this part is working in the same way as the origanl.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
