sooo ! got my car back ! love it turbo sounds insane spooling up as well sending my ecu off next week to nistune for the tickel and lick lol then ill have to look into AFM Hmm after some reading a z32 could be my next upgrade .

all thats new for me is my dent has been fixed just waiting to paint it nowthumbsup.gif & i also worked out i still have the mines ecu, witch would explain why i don't have the speed limiter & the rev limit has been raised thumbsup.gif

another one? :( i think a mate may have one if you haven't got one already,

as for my car i was going to see if the GTR bar that toffy lent me would fit but i would have had to un mount my cooler & it was dark so ill do it another day, also found a split catch can hose pinch.gif all fixed now thothumbsup.gif

any other 33 owners have surge issues when around quarter of a tank? thinking i may need a new pump or maybe a surge tank

Edited by Autumn33

R33s are usually pretty good for fuel surge because of the nice shape of the tank. I've still just got the stock fuel setup with a walbro pump, loves to drift and I spin out more often than not, haven't had any problems with surge.

Just check that who ever changed it didn't fit it back in the tank wrong , when i first got my white 33 (or my ex's now) it had been changed and they put the fuel pump where the level indicator thingy is supposed to go , if i cornered hard right it would run out of fuel under 1/3 of a tank pinch.gif . And check it's in its mount properly too!

Well today I got stuck into hacking up my front bar, and picked up a huge ass sheet of 2mm aluminium to make my splitter up. ordered some nice adjustable turnbuckles out of the states. gonna have to wait a week or two for those babies to arrive but that gives me time to repair the rest of the bar and start prepping for primer.

also have some bilsteins to replace my knarley old Tein HR's. so the Ol' dusty datsun is seeing a bit fo love atm.

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
