guys as I am sure most of you are aware I got an FMIC and have been fitting it over the past couple of days. Everything’s all good with it however the new piping doesn’t come with that little nipple thing (this is the n00b part).

On the stock IC piping I have a bit of rubber piping running to my bleed valve to determine how much air to bleed out etc however the new piping doesn’t have the little nipple thing to attach it too. Can I just take this piping to any metal/exhaust place and get them to make it up also as an alternative I am sure that me and dad could weld one onto it but were do I actually get the nippily thing.

PS: I am aware I have said nipple alot don’t get to aroused people. :boobs:

Leech i had the same issue a week or 2 ago. Just buy a brass nipple from autopro and either bolt it or weld it into the IC return pipe.

have a look at mine as i am sure it doesnt have one either but i have a bleed valve.  Come to trivia

ahhhh what time you going to be out their as you must have somewhere a line that runs to your bleed valve from the ic piping otherwise how does it know how much PSI is going through. i have shit to do tonight but i might be able to pop out for like 30 minutes to have a squiz

Yeah you definately need it, it runs (via your bleed valve) to the boost control solenoid/wastegate actuator...mine does anyway.

yea thats exactly what i thought without that wont it just majorly overboost ??? as it will have no idea how much boost it will be running.

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
