I have ordered a pioneer navigation system.

I need to know where is the speed sensor wire??

is it ok to use the #53 pin on the ecu ?

also, if anyone know where is the backup wire when we go into reverse gear.

it is for an r32 gts-t

thanks

can't remember the wire for speed. but if you use the APEXI RSM as a guide it will be fine.

as for reverse. drop the light out and note teh colour . find teh same colour wire in the drivers KP and pop the car in and out of reverse (key on - not running.) to verify it. should see +12 when in gear.

hopefully you can get Oz maps for it. (wasn't aware they were relesased out here.)

BobyYoo,

In Canada (from your profile) you should be able to get mapping no prob.

Just be mindful to run the gps sensor to a part of the car that has a clear view to the sky and make sure the earth is good on the unit, if either is not quite right you might run into a few problems.

Just as information for people in Australia looking at doing this - read below.

Pioneer Nav systems ordered from O/S WILL NOT work in Australia for the following reasons

- there is no mapping available compatible with the pioneer

- mapping produced by whereis (as used by most other brands is coded differently for each brand) will not be supported in a Pioneer nav system.

- screen is most likely NTSC not PAL as used in Aust (software usually only supports PAL or RGB)

The other point to note is that most Pioneer DVD/ NAV systems are region coded from the factory. Aust ones are zone 4, america zone 1. Unless your unit has been modified from factory (read NO WARRANTY THRU PIONEER AUST) it will not play Australian release DVD's.

So, having said that, and dont think i am being to smart, but if anyoone does decide to buy this type of unit from america for use in Australia, I hope you get a good deal, as the unit will be mostly useful as a CLOCK for your car.

      Bloody Skylines, they put you through the bloody wringer! Stick at it! Stunning drag strip BTW! Where is it? Can see part of the name on the slip and probably should just Google it!

      I mean the other day I had to walk someone through diagnosing why their timing belt was walking off the cam gears. At least one of the issues was a bent tensioner stud. Local mechanics have found runout on the CAS mechanism causing weird failures. I'm also no saint here I've documented some of the things I've had to learn the hard way. Something I discovered recently is that my CA emissions catalytic converters weren't even welded correctly to align the downpipe to the main cat and they tossed the support bracket that goes from the transfer case to the downpipe to support everything there. I spend a lot of time chasing down these decidedly unsexy problems and the net effect is it feels like I never actually get to the original objective (flex fuel, VCAM, oil control, cooling, etc).

      At times with how you make everything sound, all I imagine Americans doing when they see a gtr is standing there looking at it and bashing it with a gun like how a caveman would with a club and hoping it fixes itself

      I think this is just a product of how the US market works for this stuff. Shops are expensive and there's no real way of knowing what kind of results you're going to get, people don't really have the institutional knowledge. I have heard too much at this point to really put faith in anybody "full service" except maybe DSport and they aren't really a full service kind of shop. If you go to the right place I have no doubt they'll get it right for you. Some locals have set it up right but the cost really is nuts and even now they're still fighting issues. And you know I'm a crazy person who thinks things like twin scroll, relatively short low-mount cast headers, PCV recirc to intake, recirculating BOV, right-sized for ~400 whp, MAF load, validating all of that to a standard comparable to OEM test programs, etc are relevant. For what it's worth, multiple local owners at this point have been stuck in a perpetual cycle of blowing a motor -> getting someone to rebuild it -> some missed detail causes the bearings to wipe and spin just outside of break-in mileage or drop valves or some other catastrophe -> cycle repeats. I usually only find out about this because I'm perpetually helping random friends with diagnosing car troubles, Skyline or otherwise. The single turbo stuff if I'm honest is mostly secondary, it just doesn't seem to achieve the numbers in the ~2000-3000 rpm region that I would expect given the results I've seen here or in Motive's videos. I don't really know what we're missing here in the US to be causing this. Lots of people like to emphasize the necessity of finishing the project first and foremost, but I'm not made of money and I can't afford to be trashing a 15k+ USD engine build with any regularity. Or spending my relatively limited garage time these days unable to triangulate problems because too much was changed all at once. Also, even if it isn't a catastrophic failure I would consider spending the cost of single turbo conversion with nothing to show for it to be pretty bad.

      So whats the deal with the porous block VR30DDTT

      The water pump is know to leak as well. So if the coolant is low checking that first as well as hoses.
