Hi, Guys

Some questions rising during my modification; I have Greddy Plenum with Q45 (infinite) throttle body and discover that I no longer able to use my stock throttle cable (cable is longer), and the throttle position sensor harness is different (alougth both 3 wires), so question are:

1) What throttle cable did you guys use?

2) How you wire up Q45 throttle position sensor to stock throttle position harness?

3) If you still have the Greddy plenum manual, what does it talk about on the 3-12 (page 20)..

all help appreciate...

Phillip

Adzman, I replied to your question in the other thread:D

sidewaymambo, I originally had the stock throttle body with an adapter plate, and we were able to use the stock throttle cable and TPS. I later had a custom throttle body (90mm) made, and we were still able to retain the stock throttle cabel, and used a TPS from a Holden, which we got from Conventrys, as it had the same pin arrangement.

After a while we had a custom throttle cable made, as the stock one was starting to catch as it was at an odd angle. You can have a custom cable made to any size you like.

I would imagine that the TPS on the Q45 would be very similar, with two wires acting as a potentiometer and one acting as the stop switch.

Hope that helps.

Yeah, sorry. The TPS is like a potentiometer, it varies the voltage signal out depending on how open the throttle is. Aslong as the signal range is the same then you should be able to tune the car with the larger throttle body no probs:D

And the TPS feeds back to the ECU right ? What happens to the output of this ?

Does the TPS output combine with the AFM output for the ECU to make decisions ? Is this ECU dependant or is the TPS & AFM outputs independant ?

I don't know if that quesiton made much sense.....? I hope you understand what I mean ?

sidewaymambo,

I am having my TB replaced with a ford item, it has a two position sensor (on/off) and the guy who is fitting it said it is quite easy to adapt the stock TPS to the ford TB

Also, I am using a GTiR throttle cable that fits quite nicely, also you can get the stock ones shortened so I am told.

A Silvia or 180SX throttle cable fits. A GT-R has the same connectors to suit the Q45 throttle body, and have never seen the manual so can't help on the 3rd quiz.

Hi, DoughBoy..

silvis or 180sx, did you refer to the SR20DET or CA18DET? thanks

    • Sharing results from recent Liberty Walk R35 GTR, since they are still considered as somesort of a V36 Skyline. We do them turbos too. This are high flowed SS-1 models with ball bearing conversion done.  Car have managed to pull 485awkws @ 20Psi so far pushing limitations of factory built engine. The build list for R35 GTR enthusiasts as follow : HyperGear high flowed stock turbos in SS1 (G25-660 specs) Custom titanium intake pipes. Vspec performance titanium front pipes. Vspec performance 4" titanium exhaust. Upgrade fuel pumps. 1200cc injectors. Ignition coilpacks Hks intake plenum. Hks intercooler piping. Greddy intercooler. Greddy bovs. Top-secret coolant reservoir. Emtron ecu. Straight E85. Built gear box.  
    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
