Hi All,

Hopefully someone can help me out or let me know if they have seen this before.

Ok i have GReddy Profec B-spec II boost controller & recently purchased the GReddy Remote Switching System so it can be attached to the steering wheel to be able to flick the controller between low and high boost at the push of a button without having my hand(s) leave the steering wheel or gear knob ......

Now the problem i am experiencing is when its all plugged in it doesnt seem to work at all ..... at first we thought it was the switching system but i went back to the shop i bought it from and we tried a few of them with the same result.

What happens is as soon as you plug the switching system into the back of the profec B (it looks like a simple headphone jack .... no other wiring required at all) .... the controller beeps and flicks over to high boost ..... then when i push the button on the switching system it wont flick back to low boost ...... the light on the button lights up when its pressed but the light on the transmittor doesnt seem to turn on at all .....

Now after trying a few with the same result the shop concluded that my controller must be a dud and there is nothing wrong with the switching system. I am hopefully meeting up with a friend in a week or 2 as he has a profec B which he bought from a completely different shop to me to see how the switching system reacts with his profec B but i was wanting to know if anyone else has experienced this ? or is there something else i need to do ? Any help would be much appreciated.

This is what the switching system looks like http://www.alamomotorsports.com/greddy/grprofecremote.htm

The profec B manual can be downloaded from here http://www.alamomotorsports.com/greddy/PROFEC_B_SPEC2.pdf although i've read it end to end and there is no mention about any extra steps required. The remote switching system simply plugs into the socket number 7 seen on page 14.

      Speaking of diverting threads, my second ever NISMO purchase…. I think they look pretty classy and just wanted to share 😅   PS: 1st was the oil drain plug 😂

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      R12 has not been not available for....decades now. Propane is not a great replacement. (I mean, it's a great replacement, but it is a bit too flammable). R134a being the only way to go forward with an R12 system. The design pressures etc, are close enough to R12's to work. The ability to move heat around is close enough to R12's to work.

      Out of curiosity, what's the reason for converting? I think @R3N3 might have the Frenchy's kit in the R33? I somehow think of you as the ambassador for realistic and clean street-driven setups nowadays

      V35 Overheat + Coolant Boil & Overflow + Engine not Starting

      careful when running the car after a boil over. Ive heard you can lose enough coolant that it won't show the right temps because of too much air in the system (or something like that). Make sure the levels are good before trying again.  Maybe a mobile mechanic can come have a look with their scan tool ?

      OK, just for some extra clarity - there is more than one option at Frenchy's. 1. You can buy the whole kit - with or without the actual compressor. The whole kit includes mounts, hoses, condensor, etc. That's either ~$2200 or ~$2800. No surgery required with this option. 2. You can buy just the bracket (~$600), or the bracket with the compressor (~$1200). Either of this or the above option "without the compressor" is if you already have an Echo comp or you are able to source one locally. Whatever the case, in this option, you will need surgery done on your hoses to adapt to the new compressor. When I said "the Frenchy's kit", I meant the whole kit in option 1. It is obviously somewhat more $$ than a $1500 OEM compressor. But if I had to spend $1500 on an OEM compressor, I would certainly consider spending double that to renew and significantly update everything forward of the firewall. Another option is to rebuild your original compressor. My R34 comp is currently dead and I will be most likely doing that to it if the spare one in the shed is also leaky.
