aww man, if farking JAP

okay first plan of action

check with whom ever it was who turned it into a clock concealed timer cos he has obviously managed to install it with jap instruction.

second, why are these boost gauges dead

ecu is not in the boot

its in the passenger kick panel

under the glove box and to your left, just under the factory flare in that panel

it comes off quite simply and then the ecu sits there.

i dont see why the gauges both died at the same time, because if the dash one is electronic then yeah maybe a wire problem, but if the blitz one is dead thats weird cos its a mechanical gauge.

the vacuum line is all that is involved in making it move.

which means the car is not providing a reading to the vacuum line, which means the line must not be connected.

i dont get any other explanation

I think the vacuum hose blew off the back of the gauge,

that would make more sense.

Especially if both the gauges died

i just dont get it hey

if its not resolved by the weekend. i will come round if thats cool. and maybe we can go through the wires and the lines.

yeah riaz, good idea - my dad was getting worried didnt know wat else was going 2 **** up but i told him it was alright and i would get it fix.

And today i notic the chick factory to the skyline. after work my mates rock up with some girls that work at macca's and one ask me to take her home and smile at me like she wanna 2 hook up this was wired cuz she never talk 2 me at work at all.

    • 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.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
