Gents,

Anyone here have any experience with the IMPUL ecu for the V35?

Thoughts? Results?

I've finally purchased a V35 and it comes with one of these already installed. Just curious as to what sort of improvement they are over standard.

Cheers

Brad

Hi Brad

Mine has an IMPUL ecu. It was pinging its tits off so I went to SAS to have it re tuned but the Japanese owner had it sikaflexed in!!! Two days to get it out. They retuned it for me and although it made no extra power at 170rwkw but at least no pinging.

Cheers

Geoff

I have the impul ecu fuji exhaust some high flow cats , i made 161.4 at the wheels. I did notice that the rev limiter goes further but im gathering nothing in performance wise. Due to my dyno chart my power starts to fade at 6000rpm's anyway.

I have had no experience with pinping and always use v-power fuel.

Geoff after they re-tuned it how much did that cost and did u notice anything different other then the pinping stop.

I dont know why people are putting these in their cars for the price and get nothing performance wise back !

I didn't put it in, it was already there and I think they are good with higher octane Japanese fuel. Anyway as for mine it was simply remapped and made no more power. No difference in feel just stopped pinging so I am happy.

i am planing to get aftermarket ecu, not the piggyback kind.. Wondering how can you find out which can buy used in our v35?

I dont know much about aftermarket ecu..

I am ok with the price on haltech that are for sell in this forum, but how do i know it can be used? coz there must b some difference about fitting, coz people wont b selling example apexi power fc for specific skyline models...

reason to buy is i am going towards supercharger in few months, and wish to get a few basic stuff before the final supercharger..

hey danny

in terms of the ecu i am in the same boat as you

i have found an american company who will provide the supercharger kit with the orisis ecu with a pre-tuned map but i dont think its a good idea as they run on different fuel etc. and id rather get it tuned for our car specifically.

the 2 ecus i am considering for our car are:

1. Haltech Platinum

2. EMS

reason being these are a 1 ecu fits all type of system, and the other is that australian tuners are very familiar with these 2 ecu's

keep you updated mate on the supercharger etc.

When is the speed limiter exactly supposed to kick in? In my old car I got up to 160 at Wanneroo Raceway, if I take this car there 180 will come and go if it's not limited, does it cut in as harshly as the rev limiter, right on 180?

and where does the ECU live? In my old car it was under the stereo, I'm guessing around there or glovebox sort of area?

Found this about the G35, I guess it's the same but mirror image being RHD?

ive hit the speed cut on the v35

the speedo actually went past 180, kept going past say to around 200km/h then it cut off

wasnt too harsh, just like u put ur foot down and was just a total loss in power then no response for a few seconds until the speed dropped, then the power came back on again

    • I used the radium thing, makes the whole parallel assembly a lot more compact compared to any other way of doing it 
    • Racetronix also sells those ethanol content sensor bypass blocks. Adapter, Flex-Fuel E85 Sensor High-Flow Bypass, In-line No Sensor (ADF-FLEX-NS): Adapters - Flex Fuel | Racetronix Ethanol content sensor are originally designed to be on the feed line. These bypass blocks are meant to be ran in the feed line and not return. The continental ethanol content sensors have a 3/8" ID and not 5/16". This is why they are ran on the return line directly in conjunction with a low threshold sampling value VS in the feed with one of these blocks.    Haha we think alike, I used both original feed/return for 8AN feed, and one of the Hicas lines as a 6AN return. I also capped off and left the other Hicas line as a spare. 
    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
