Hello,

I had once bought a Ross Balancer kit from the company, i am sure many of you have heard of them as they are a local australian company, the kit came with two magnetic sensors. Now these sensors have 3 wires coming out of them but I have no idea where to stick them, as a person using a piggy back ecu there is one main confusion. Even if i plug it in the ecu wiring look should i connect it with the stock ecu or the after market?

Is there someone noted in Australia that does this on a daily basis? I am keen to learn. Omega technical factories the new owners have told me to look for someone by the name of checkered performance australia but i only find crazy results in google and facebook. Perhaps all people will also benefit from this knowledge, especially thos who cannot afford a tuner to do this. I was surprized the maker doesnt have a jedi technique on how to install the item they have on sale and I need to get in touch with someone.

I really bought it as i knew stock cam sensor is just retard as poised to die anyday, plus id love to rev past 10K, as my engine is full tomei internals and solid lifters on with 270 degree cams.post-66871-14016840030476_thumb.jpg

There is a lot of discussion on these things (Ross crank triggers) on these forums already. You could do some searching around on here and learn a lot.

Piggyback ECU setups are not going to be a pleasant thing to make work with a crank trigger system. And if you have a crank trigger (with a proper aftermarket ECU) it's generally wise to still have the cam angle sensor, or at least a modified version of it for your sync. So throwing away the Nissan CAS is not as simple as you might hope.

Checkered is not "Checkered" it is "Chequered Performance". Look for STATUS as a user on here. That's him.

Oh no guys, that was the look coz it had been with the garage guy for 2 years, he still has the car. Needs proper cleaning and need to make really organised brake lines. Not to mention these guys are arabs and they kept on doing their thing saying "its gonna look awsome just wait and see". They had it for a long while, i will definitely make improvements once i get it back.

Send Yavuz at Unigroup Engineering an email and ask him if he can give you some insight into what is going on. Whilst i am sure any reputable workshop would be able to help you, Yavuz worked with Ross Balancers to design this crank trigger so he will be able to tell you exactly what you need.

Nah boys thanks alot i just spoke to him over facebook really helpful guy i never met anyone this helpful. He figured i had the wrong parts under 5 minutes.

Now next problem is will ross accept my returns and replacement or not? Never buy from a company during an acquisition. Worst mistake, or luck.

Dont buy these if u run a piggy back or fcon by the way as he says.

    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
    • Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...
    • Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
