Hi, I'm in search of some information, hoping I can be pointed in the correct direction.. 

 

Car is a s15 coverted to awd using a donar r33 gts4 for parts..  We have removed the abs from the orignal s15 from factory..  How can I get my haltech to read the speed sensor signal from the transmission? The transmission is stock but planning to upgrade to a os88 box soon.. What can I use to solve this issue?

The Nissan speed sensor just sends an AC (actually it's more of a saw-tooth waveform, but it fluctuates +ve and -ve) signal to the (factory) dash. That signal's frequency is proportional to the speed. The speedo head then converts that to a square wave 0-5V PWM signal that is put out on the "speed signal" bus wire that is connected to the ECU and any other CU that wants to know vehicle speed (which in an S15, is....probably not very many. Did they have HICAS?). That signal can be fed directly to the Haltch, the same as it is fed to the factory ECU.

All this is in the factory service manuals.

You just need to read the Haltech manual on what you need to do to configure an input to read a PWM signal like that and connect the wire.

But that's assuming that you are using the S15 dash. If instead you are going to use a Haltech dash then you could probably also read the Haltech manual to find out what you have to do to instead connect the AC signal direct from the speed sensor.

This setup will work and be an improvement over the factory speed sensor (quicker to respond and more accurate).

If you want a simple plug and play option, this will work too.

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • 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.
