Alright guys, I didn't start this thread to talk about politics, or to whinge about how much money other people are making. Lets keep it on topic eh?

Judging by the responses so far, I would say that an ECU is the best bet.

O/T maybe some rears for my 34 (1934 not r34)

i missed the part where i said the global recession was labors fault?

you might want to find out how to spell a party's name before voting for them

Where is the part where I say you said the global recession is labours fault.

Nice work there sparky (JonnoHoward)..lol

and its good to see kevin07 sticking with labour tradition and wasting all the money from budget surplus's under liberal. good stuff kev, keep up the good work

What my post says in a sarcastic way is: do you think he has a say in the matter? Do the rest of the planet also have it wrong or are they all following Kev07's misguided Labour lead.

He's blowing all the Liberal parties money...doofus

I speak and write in English, not American English.

I spell colour with a U the same way I spell labour with a U, you can follow the Americanisation of all things if you wish.

Here's a clue

During the early years of the ALP, the Party was referred to by various titles differing from colony to colony. It was at the 1908 Interstate (federal) Conference that the name 'Australian Labour Party' was adopted. In its shortened form the Party was frequently referred to as both 'Labor' and 'Labour', however the former spelling was adopted from 1912 onwards, due to the influence of the American labor movement

I repeat I do not speak American what ever that may be and never will.

Fo shizzle I won't.. :)

nice work idiot... you really are quite simply aren't you...

owned.

now back on topic, to the OP, i still say REMAP, not FC.

I too will be spending this money on the car. Was going to spend on interior, but pretty much scrapping that idea.

I have most the suspension sorted, adj sway bars, shocks, springs, camber kits.

Power stuff...

-full 3" exhaust

-high flow turbo

-fuel pump

-injectors

-blitz spec r ebc

-remap

-rev210 intake mod

-FMIC

-splitfires (not really power)

i think that's about it. Got good tyres, 18" forged rims (GTR), good brake pads, brake stopper thingy...

i'm going to tip in $100, so i can spend $1k. don't know where to go now though? Any thoughts?

I'm really quite simply what? Imbecile.

As I was explaining to your fellow simpleton.

I do not use "American" English, It's a bastardisation of OUR language.

Did you miss that part of the post or was it beyond your comprehension?

Quoted from http://www.alp.org.au/about/history.php <<< the a.l.p

You really are clever aren't you.

Thanks for your input Gonad, appreciated.

Boned!

I'm giving my handout back...

REGO! :P

I think I'll bank the change in protest... or to just continue the trend with what a large number of recipients will do... minimally stimulating the economy.

But in answer to Dreamr33's question, if i were you I'd spend it on suspension mods. Like someone mentioned earlier sways, and a front and rear strut brace, or some second hand shocks in good condition.

well, there you go... a piece of history from 1912, i was not aware of this. But where is this influence now?

i apologise and withdraw my comments (if i could edit)

to the OP, how many k's has your 33 done? $900 prob won't cover it, but will go quite close to doing a 100,000km service

Not 100% sure, Might give Jim Berry a call and see what he can do for me.

I have heard he can do a pretty good set up for about $900. Even if it's a bit more it doesn't worry me.

I just don't want something that is going to be heavy and a dog in traffic.

Looks like I'll be putting the money towards a new set of tyres

yup $500 of ours went on marshal mactra tx's

making a rear swaybar atm, another 25$ for some solid steel rod, and wednesday is dyno-day.

200 change out of that ^ to put towards cosmetic touchups, maybe even panda-style :)

yes, but you still run into the problem of tuning. Yeah, you can just run a new turbo with a boost controller but you don't really see the value out of any of these extra mods unless you get it tuned.

I still say ECU Remap @ Status Tuning, this way whatever mods you do in the future, you can get the most potential out of them.

    • Ok glad you clarified on the frenchy’s options , I was worried about if my oem hoses would fit the new compressor or not if I just bought the bracket/compressor kit ,  didn’t realize they also sold a larger full conversion kit. Hmm may just go oem in that case then to make it easy only because I plan to sell this car to upgrade to a 32 GTR or 34 GTT.
    • 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?
