All the information is usefull.... but its a deregistered cefiro that me and my mate have got...its not going to be chasing the fastest of times at the strip...its a car that me and him can take to the friday night drags and have some fun...becuase it cant exactly get street legal here in NZ.

I just wanted to do somthing that "i" thought would be cool...but was wondering about the performance etc because i still want a fast car!

and about the gt3040....its the turbo i have sitting in my shed...i dont have a couple of grand to spend on a new one...but the gt3040 can still get the job done. that brumby is pretty much what i was going for but just wanted some advice

cheers

Sup ,

I think it would give the car character :laugh: and also raise the chances of blowing a comp wheel from someshit getting stuk in it lmaoooo

(BITCH TIME)

Im also slowly starting to get sick of idiots giving shit to people who are "modifying" their cars.. mostly these people giving shit because they cant afford to do it them selves but honestly ... its becoming a joke u cant post anything on this forum with respect to doing some fun mods without being hounded by 50 year old jaguar enthusiasts who are STRICT on keeping their car FACTORY because all the smart engineers built the cars that way for a reason!!! ITS HIGH FOR A REASON ITS GOT BODY ROLL FOR A REASON BLA BLA BLA PUT SOME BLODDY COILOVERS ON IT N SHUT UR MOUTH sorry im just angry lol venting...etc.. what im saying is.. MOST of Nissans profits are from the modification aspect to their performance cars.. reason they dont put fkn heavyduty clutches in their cars.. COZ THEY KNOW they gona be profiting from all the clutch manufactures making HD clutches for their cars... hence u drop a patch and u need a new clutch... woah massive bitch ok im over it...

(BITCH OVER)

night boys :mad:

Couldn't agree more. If humans never considered a few dumb/off-centre/left-field ideas, where would we be? Good on him for thinking about something. Leave the boy alone!

(and so WHAT if someone wants to do something for looks. Looks is okay.)

No disrespect but you think Nissan make money on companies like Exedy, HKS, Blitz etc making clutches on their cars? You honestly think Nissan don't do something to a car because there plan is the car will be modified and some how they will make "MOST" of thier profits this way? So Nissan didn't put a $3000 triple plate carbon clutch into your R32 GTS4 not beacuse it would make no sense to do so on a car rated at 140kw, but because they knew you would modify it, go out and buy a super expensive 800HP clutch and this in turn would make them money?

I think you need to do a bit more research on the construction/engineering aspect of designing something.

R.I.P.S in NZ have built an r34 drag car with the turbo half sticking out of the bonnet and have a duct that goes directly to the turbo inlet, you can see the turbo, its like right there spinning away... These guys have built a fair few cars and mostly drag, so they might know what they are doing...

Bonnet%20hole%207.jpg

i got a spare fibreglass bonnet which i will be cutting into, and making like a ramp piece to guide air down to the inlet. its not my daily bonnet so just something to do at the drags.

Instead of running a pod, the other option like i have seen fairly often is a strong mesh cover over the inlet so it will stop most large-ish things getting in.

    • Thanks! Will get it looked at before winter 🥶 other than that she's a mint ride love it aye 
    • FWIW a lot of the local owners that do a big build tend to have cars that are perpetually broken. 
    • I just got this system but haven’t installed yet I got a Moroso sealed box (defect reasons) which will be set up same as their pic The quality is high grade, the correspondence I had with the owner (former head designer for Rockford Fosgate) was unbelievable, guiding me with what I needed. Even told me not to buy some things as it could be sorted in a different way at his loss. Just a bit of a bite with the exchange rate and don’t purchase gear in 1 hit that goes over $1,000 au, lol I forgot!  
    • Thanks mate for that reply. Very helpful.    it’s a 2022 400R so would most likely lose those features as you say.     I did a quick compare of a rv37 nav and heading for sale in Japan to q50 model. I’ll pop pics below. Seems  Japan spec head into top, nav unit second below it   below pic Q50 aud delivered     differences seem to be Aus delivered has a different plug top left hand side of head unit- not sure what and where it goes.   and nav unit Japanese tv37 had an extra plug put    Again I’m really not sure what each of these differences mean!       the actual plugs on a v37 and q50 screens look identical on both screens… pics below for comparing. (One screen was is a us delivered one) but should be same gps signals etc as Australia.    If it were as simple as swapping a nav unit from q50 aud delivered im interested -just want to figure out what the missing plug is for before spending big $ on a second hand part for it to not work, and I guess with the head unit, if the band expander does the job (I got a 20mHz so should get the range I’m after) so should narrow my issue down to nav unit only.  I’d love to know what the extra cable on rv37 does and if I eliminate that part what it’ll do to the setup,    and also, if I can figure out what that head unit plug difference is, what does that cable do and where does it got can it be altered or re-plugged?! Excuse my ignorance what is ACP/AA, what does that stand for? (Apple car play? Android air play)? so If I swapped head units to save using a band expander, I’d likely lose those better features to have an oem Unit operational. Better to use a band expander and retain AirPlay options and newer version of head unit     provably best to band expand it, and focus on the nav unit. th isn’t  a big deal/ would be cool to have it working  from what I can tel we use a PAL Signal and Japan uses a NTSC signal  I don’t know if there’s a co better or if the screen only reads NTSC, or if it’s the tv module that needs replacing… no big deal don’t need it but more of a curiosity thing on that!   Thanks for the info re tyre sensors, helpful and great to know.  I was reading the online manual off Japan website and it seemed to make it sound more confusing than it is  I guess a rim replacement would require the sensors to be moved to a new rim to carry that option over?!     Thanks for the info regarding diagnostic mode. I appreciate your help mate. Trying to brainstorm here to find a solution to get as much gadgets as I can working! I plan to get my local Nissan tech to have a look too who used to be at an Infiniti dealer back in the day to see if any thing they have or idea can find a soliton. But hoping anyone here has gone down the same route to make life easier!!   i guess identifying the cable/plug differences and what they do would be a great way of finding out if the units are transferable    thanks again 
    • No idea about the remote start part. If the V37 nav is anything like other Nissan JDM vehicles, you can't get the factory Japanese nav working in australia, a card from a different car almost certainly won't work, those cards are usually matched to the serial number of the DCU.  You could be possibly swap out the components from a AuDM Q50 to get it working, but if this is a new model (2021+) 400R, then you will lose the newer features like ACP/AA.  That said, if you have ACP/AA, just use google maps.. I assume a band expander would be required to get the local radio stations, but don't forget the Japanese FM band is narrower than ours, so you still might not be able to receive all Australian stations. I can't see any reason the tyre pressure sensors won't work here, there is the sensor unit inside the rim and the receiver nearby in the wheel well.  I have never had to change the batteries on my 2015 Q50, so I assume they last quite a while.  A straight battery change shouldn't need them to be re-registered as they are the same unit, that should only be required if you replace a sensor with a new one.   Word of warning, if you ever go into the 'secret' diagnostics mode on the main screen, DO NOT EVER do a 'reset' in this menu, it will erase all of your model specific data in the DCU and you will need a trip to a dealer to re-program it all, which would be particularly painful being an import.  This applies to the AuDM Q50 too.
