look in the engine bay for a sensor with a vac hose and 3 wire plug.

if thats off its not gonna work. should be drv side

cheers will check in the morn. i think your right cause it didn't work then it did then it didn't so a plug not clipped in all the way sounds like the culprit.

Perhaps.

Mine worked at random times then ceased operation.

Nothing to do with vacuum hoses or clips as all have been changed/cleaned/re-clipped.

It gave 1 final boost reading of 2bar than that was it. lol.

pulled the plug off and sprayed some water dispersant in there and now she's working a treat. must have been the engine wash my mech did when i got it serviced. thanks for the help chris

This is the factory item I am talking about.

It may not have numbers that read up to 2bar.... (sorry for the size, but non of my programs will save the re-sizing atm)

I can't believe you haven't upgraded your head unit yet iamhe

LOL.

Why though?

I have done my iPod install, run all my music through it (in lossless - I HATE mp3) and it sounds pretty bloody good.

Whilst I know that there are far better out there, the sound from the OE Clarion unit is pretty good and is plenty loud enough for what I listed to (no doof doof).

....plus I would prefer to spend the $1500AUD on "fun" mods instead of the head unit I have in mind :P

What unit have you put in?

Is the boost gauge sensor on all NM35's or do you have to fit it? Where would I find it in the engine bay?

I've got the 3 gauge single DIN (not fitted) and i'm hoping to replace my double din with a single din CD player and the gauges...

Would the loom be there?

Hi Scotty. Ball joints are going great btw...

Not 100% sure what you mean. There wont be a signal for the torque split at both the loom out OR the attessa ECU?

So basically that gauge DIN I bought from you isn't going to work... :huh:

The boost and volts will, but we can't find the torque output at the attessa ecu at this stage, perhaps there are 2 different attessa computers, similar to the dash? You might have more luck.

So there isn't a loom that is common across all cars. The cars that have the 3 gauge will have the plug and the ones that don't obviously don't.

Where is the boost sensor located on the VQ25DET? I thought if you didn't have the gauges, you didn't have the gauge sensor. (hoping to be wrong!)

No, you would be surprised how many differences there are between the body looms. Engine loom is all the same, but the boost sensor comes off the harness on the drivers side of the bay where the headlight wiring goes, it is bolted near the strut tower.

Pretty sure we found the plug for the triple gauges, tucked up under the stereo wiring. I will have to ask the owner I forget. I just remember having issues getting a signal from the Attessa computer.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
