Pretty certain the second cable quadrant is for criuse control not TPS . I have never seen an FJ20 std with a flex plate on it yet .

You maybe right about the cruise control.The car was an DR30 RSX with n/a FJ,auto,cruise,power windows,mirrors etc etc

Ive still got the auto box but it soon tired when i put my turbo donk in front of it.

There is nothing very exciting about these switches . I had one in bits years ago and all they have is a dual contacts for open and closed throttle . The vane type air flow meter does the rest . The genuine MR30 manual shows you how to set it .

Thats the whole drama here mate, the wolf doesn't read the standard TPS, just because it is only an on/off switch basically, i need a true TPS for the wolf to work on my motor!!

Adam you should be able to get away with running 14psi through your motor, Josh was running that and his was only just starting to lean out really high in the rev's, so if worse comes to worse get a malpassi or something and wind a touch more base pressure into it!! Do it all on the dyno though :)

And Joshs died didnt it

Yeah Josh's died from a injector that was blocked last time i heard from him...Like i said if your that worried get a malpassi and stick it on the dyno and get them to wind a touch more base pressure into it so it doesn't lean out up top....

BTW my car runs now :) Started her up sunday night, getting wheel spacers today for it and it should be able to move under its own steam for the first time in over 12 months :D :D

      Not that I know from experience, but in theory you'd want your gate spring to be as close to target pressure as possible, so you'd go with the higher gate spring?

      Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?   Edit: Actually I might just swap the spring and see what the logs say after another few pulls, as we know it's still spiking without the Mac valve in the picture so I need more data without the Mac valve trying to combat the issue.

      Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you?

      I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.

      Infiniti Q60 Navigation Update

      Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
