Sounds like me inside/out, I'll convert it to a single turbo and it will dose and I will be happy.

Can the N55 manifold swap over? That would be the way to go IMO for a single turbo swap.

Don't think so, but there are nice manifolds out there on the market that can achieve this very easily.

I would most likely not even go external gate to keep packaging simple.

Probably the following:

  1. Rolling AL (because it's very cool at the moment)
  2. Launch On/Off
  3. Boost Up
  4. Boost Down
  5. Enable/Disable Cruise Control
  6. Set Cruise Control Speed
  7. Stop Cruise Control
  8. Enable/Disable Logging

Number 8 sounds pretty sexy, do you know if it can start/stop logging to PC or does it only start/stop logging to onboard memory?

8 buttons don't go far... 

You got dem billet oil pump gears ready for abuse?

I believe it's stop/start to onboard memory only, same way you would press F6 in NSP.

Don't have logging like that. You can set auto logging once a set of parameters have been met. I.e Full throttle = Log.

This means you can go back in time when you have a problem and dont have to pre-emptively start logging. It's the future! By the future I mean I had it many years ago and miss it.

something like 50% Tps, 3000 rpm and 5-6psi 
is roughly what I use in the Link so I don't fill it everytime I drive.

Don't waste a button on stop cruise control.  You will never push it, just tap the brakes .

Make it increase cruise speed.

 

 

 

Also why have an Enable/ Disable button? Just leave it always enabled.

 

So now you can have an increase cruise speed and a decrease cruise speed.

to be fair, the straight is about 500m

I agree up and down cruise are good things, probably the most often used buttons in the fuga.

The problem with can buttons is you really need a pdm as well for most useful functions. still, a good toy, life would be easier in the gtr if plat pro supported can can pads, i run an old fashioned switch and button custom panel

Good points, will rethink how I use the buttons. 

Might not even have cruise control as I need an IO expander. Used up all the inputs on DBW setup and all the sensors so none left for brake input.

Haven’t got any DPIs left? You can put the brake or clutch pedals onto any type of input 

Used up everyone single DPI, AVI. Even sacrificed the power steering input lol.

DBW uses up 4x inputs.

Plus the dbw drive wires that can be used for other things as well 

Once you go DBW, you don't look back. Great idle quality, AC doesn't cause idle quality to degrade.

The factory air leak valves are so slow to react, with bigger cams your motor is very inefficient at lower RPMs the compressor engaging is enough to stall the motor.

Nissan should have used stepper motors like JZs or 4Gs, instead they installed a two slow reacting air leak valves lol.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
