How would i go about making sure this part is working in the same way as the origanl.

You mean once you install it? Start it up and drive it. If it doesn't shit itself, then it's working.

You probably need to understand that this sensor is juts a pressure transducer. It will convert pressure measured on a piezoelectric into volts. Most such sensors are 0-5v output. Most Nissan turbos run about the same amount of boost - regardless of whether we're talking about old petrols like the R34 or newer diesels like the Navara. And here is where it gets interesting. Assuming that the Navara runs higher boost (it probably does, being diesel) then if there is any difference at all between the R34 and the Navara sensors it will most likely be that the Navara unit puts out less volts for a give pressure (ie it will be ranged higher). And this is good because if you put it onto an R34 ECU then the ECU should think it's seeing less boost, and you can go do a little dance and walk away happy.

Now, given the likely price of this sensor I'm surprised you haven't just bought it, fitted it and been happy already. I would have.

Just plugging it in and running the risk it doesnt do damage doesnt sound like the best idea. If it does read slightly different then a tune would fix it only problem is the location of the car is kalgoorlie.

If it sends lower voltage for the same boost level as the standard one then the euc would think its getting less air then it is and inject less fuel causing lean wouldn't it.

Well if thats the case happy days. So why if it only uses it for protection does the car run like shit now even when its plugged in. Do you have any ideas why did the tuner bother to fix it when they installed nistune. Im not trying to be smart.

It has to work, or the ECU doesn't like it at all. Many have tried to run Neos without it plugged in and failed. If it is electrically borked it is quite possibly equivalent to not being plugged in. I don't think even turning off the flag for it in Nistune compensates for it not being plugged in (I haven't tried it on mine) - and that assumes that the guys tuning it know you can get around the sensor's boost cut by turning off the flag. They might not have known. And of course, they might have had to fix the sensor if it was broken in a way that meant the ECU thought it was effectively unplugged.

The little air tube has broken off it was cracked and they glued it back on but has broken again. i remeber them saying they only found it as the ecu was seeing boost fluxuations. something like that

Ive never heard of that place and no nissan was a last choice. After quickly checking Amayama comes up with the other part nissan said i could get.

Thats is not the correct one, its the gauge sensor.

Once you have the correct part number search here.... http://www.amayama.com/search/

To get the correct part number try here http://nissan.epc-data.com/skyline/er34/

Also Use their russian pages as they have pictures of the parts... http://nissan.epcdata.ru/skyline/er34/3952-rb25det/

Thanks heaps those web pages are very help full.

I found the sensor i want in the russan picture

Interestingly, i know of a GTT that gets driven daily that does not have this sensor present as it broke so I unplugged it.. Has no problems at all and has never missed a beat?

I'm under the impression now after everyones help that i have another problem and i only found this when i started looking.

On your diagram you will also find "14920" plastic pipes will break off. (valve control). That one doesn't matter much either

it runs one pipe to the charcoal canister to re-use the fumes. Again they're NLA and a replacement part off a Navara is used.

The plastic pipes are larger and the bolt holding it is larger so some modification required.

Go second hand on parts form a Jap wreckers. Any RB25 NEO motor will have these.

Cheap quick option

A few pages now. Perhaps take your car in and get a mech to identify your real issue/s.

Edit

Oh and if it's running like shit, not boosting etc..

Try looking at all your IC piping for a split or even one blown off

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
