As topic suggest's, i've got a Wolf 3D V4 pro for my FJ, and my brother just had one installed on his FJ as well, only snag with it was that the wolf doesn't work with the standard TPS as its only an on off switch not a true TPS sensor...Now does anyone know if there is one that you can get off another motor (SR?? CA??) that will bolt up or is it easier to just swap to an XF throttle body at this stage and have one less restriction??? If thats the case, how hard is the XF throttle body to install?? Any cutting and shutting of plenum needed???

Cheers,

Shane

Will it work with the Wolf though Ben?? Arnt the stock FJ throttle bodies fairly restrictive though when u start making some serioius power??? Bare in mind my turbo is good for upto 30psi and 450PS....

If I go programmable it will probably be a Microleb purely so I can junk the flap air flow meter easily. A friend is going to make up some plugs to make it a plug in proposition, and I'll be running a gutted RB30E airflow meter with wires going into the firewall to make it look like its standard, and the ecu will be in a Nissan ecu case.

Stealth :D

If you want something really unique why not use an SR20DET loom and Apexi PFC . That way you can get direct fire ignition and a choise of MAF's ie Q45 from Infinity .

Funnily enough, thats something that me and my mates discussed at one stage, it could be done, no reason why it couldn't just be easier to use a normal aftermarket ecu...

Adam i was looking at the microleb, but for what i got this wolf for really couldn't complain hehehe

My throttle body is from an FJ20E and was auto.It has 2 tps plugs on it for the auto trans.The second plug is the variable type tps that you need.Maybe some other factoy TBs from automatics will fit.The XF TB is a cut and shut job.My engine is close to 400bhp and it poses no prob(im also using wolf ecu)

Thanks Todd i was kinda waiting to get an answer from you about this!! Seems i'll have to go and suss an automatic FJ tps then hey!!

I was just throwing the idea of the XF throttle body around as an aside issue, i would prefer to keep FJ tb at this stage, and hopefully i can suss something to fit it!!

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      perhaps i should have mentioned, I plugged the unit in before i handed over to the electronics repair shop to see what damaged had been caused and the unit worked (ac controls, rear demister etc) bar the lights behind the lcd. i would assume that the diode was only to control lighting and didnt harm anything else i got the unit back from the electronics repair shop and all is well (to a point). The lights are back on and ac controls are working. im still paranoid as i beleive the repairer just put in any zener diode he could find and admitted asking chatgpt if its compatible   i do however have another issue... sometimes when i turn the ignition on, the climate control unit now goes through a diagnostics procedure which normally occurs when you disconnect and reconnect but this may be due to the below   to top everything off, and feel free to shoot me as im just about to do it myself anyway, while i was checking the newly repaired board by plugging in the climate control unit bare without the housing, i believe i may have shorted it on the headunit surround. Climate control unit still works but now the keyless entry doesnt work along with the dome light not turning on when you open the door. to add to this tricky situation, when you start the car and remove the key ( i have a turbo timer so car remains on) the keyless entry works. the dome light also works when you switch to the on position. fuses were checked and all ok ive deduced that the short somehow has messed with the smart entry control module as that is what controls the keyless entry and dome light on door opening   you guys wouldnt happen to have any experience with that topic lmao... im only laughing as its all i can do right now my self diagnosed adhd always gets me in a situation as i have no patience and want to get everything done in shortest amount of time as possible often ignoring crucial steps such as disconnecting battery when stuffing around with electronics or even placing a simple rag over the metallic headunit surround when placing a live pcb board on top of it   FML

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.
