who claims your econo goes out the windows :woot: to my knowledge this is lies

after personally driving same car with cat and without mine hasn't changed from a cat

My mate had no cat on his GTR and he reakons that he got really bad fuel economy....so thats where i got that bit of information from steve

maybe the bad econo come from putting his foot down all the time to hear the improved note?

i know thats what happened with my old stato...

my fuel economy isnt the best right now any way, i told simon when he tuned the fc not to worry bout fuel consumtion.

as its not a daily.

if i drive it on both days of the weekend, i easily eat through a tank of ultimate.

my knocked out cat is no probs at the moment! but saying that after i knocked it out i did blow my turbo! but i did put a jazma exhaust on to keep the noise down and i like it quiet! but since the exhaust is already restricting, it doesn't pop flames and smell, and the noise was the same but i did see a bit more top end in my rev range!

more of a reason to hybridge! gt30 woo anyway mine only blew because i was trying to squeeze as much out of it as possible til my cat started to restrict the turbo from spooling anymore! so after knocking out the cat the turbo had nothing restricting it and it span away

had it all fixed today, 3'' one peice dump front pipe from turbo all the way to first muffler, onto the hks rear cannon style muffler.

took out the cat all together as it was pretty much blocked (seen it for myself)

sounds much better, rob did a great job, highly recommended!!!

all up including the dump pipe,extra pipework, flanges and gaskets etc it come to $525.

:down:

nice and cheap craig....now just dont let a cop have a look at that mate....

i dont plan on it lol...

i cant remember who said it, but someone on here said i better hope a cop doesnt hear the screamer on the way to get the new pipe

well, as i was driving past ttp on the way to rampage, guess who pulled up next to me at the lights, yep, the po po.

i was already thinking of excuses and shitin myself, then i noticed they had the windows down, i was sure i was going to get done, it sounded like a bloody tractor!!!

but..they didnt even look at me! thank god.

then i realised, they pulled into maccas, so it was obviously breakfast time, so they had better things to do than pull me over.

it got my heart going thats for sure.

i had a gasket leak on my 33 and it sounded just like yours.....similar to a tractor.......and i cop pulled me over....he thought it was a worked up motor.....i was like duuude wtf lol......i was on the way to the mechanics as well.....dumb cops

mods, please delete any info in relation to the possibility of getting my car defected from this thread.

due to sapol making there presense felt here,

i will be keeping all future modifications to my car, quiet.

thank you in advance, craig.

    • Right, here's a video of the basic operation at least.  This is what you can expect day to day when you turn the car on and it boots from standby.  The only thing from a media point of view I haven't gotten working is for it to autoplay plexamp when it turns on from standby (it works from cold boot) but that's more of a plexamp problem as it will autoplay other music players.  Also attached is my one stray cable.  It's part of the screen's wiring adapters but there's just nowhere for it to go in my car.  I've just now done a bit of research and found a matching port on a 2010-2014 head unit with BOSE.  Mine has no BOSE so that's that case pretty much closed I think.  Plugging in the Infiniti AC panel basically did nothing for me, so that's a dead end as well.  Next port of call is to mess with this CANBUS module and see what I can find from it.  I found this resource containing the DBC files for a 2010+ G37 : https://github.com/icecube45/Dash_InfinitiG37/blob/master/InfinitiG37.dbc I'll now have something to go from when I try to extract my CANBUS data so I can see if the HVAC Mode, Fan Speed, Temperature, etc. match and also the gear shifter position.  It's a pretty big assumption that it's just mismatched CAN signals but considering all the devices in the CAN network are talking to each other (AC can be fully adjusted just with no info on screen) it might be a safe one.  I will report back WhatsApp Video 2025-02-26 at 12.49.10.mp4
    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
    • To be fair - you see the same thing for every clutch. There's always someone making an installation error.
