 Also got my cam trigger to sync quicker,l on crank, the arming voltage was too highPXL_20221015_102840698.thumb.jpg.f5dbd8e6f2089655b32d6f91ddec66c1.jpg

Waiting to fit one of these NZ cam triggers to the white 32. I see your post on the Haltech forum when you were having problems getting it to work. I take it the problem was they were sending the sensor out pinned to the cam signal instead of crank correct ?

If you know it’s going to sit for a while, why not drain the e85 and run some 98 through it. A fitting off your fuel rail and some hose into a Jerry can. 

It gets driven once a month lol...

Even if I drive it once a week, I still add in that additive. So far (past motors, setups, etc.) I've never had injectors gum up or seize, so it might work? (Or it's a scam and I'm donating money to the Lucas Oil execs)

It was initially pinned wrong by NZ Wiring then as I was troubleshooting, Haltech support advised to feed the reluctor 5V power, which is actually incorrect.

The reluctor actually generates it's own voltage. 

I will confirm how I've wired it in a bit. Actually can't remember right now lol.

I got mine after @Dose Pipe Sutututu and had no issues with the pinning of it so may have a been an early issue or someone was a bit lazy that day. 
Cheers for posting the arming voltage too as mine takes a few goes to fire on first crank. Fuel and timing haven't helped so will try this.

You use a link right ? The link you can reassign the cam signal cable to actually be the crank reference signal. On an Elite you can't as it is a fixed pin on the ECU, so they were sending them out preconfigured for link wiring on cas wiring pins 1 and 3.

Yes a reluctor generates its own voltage. Can't believe Haltech told you to supply it 5v !

From what I can see the neg reluctor side needs to be pinned to ground and the pos side signal output pinned to the Elite TRIGGER +, so on a cas loom that would be the 2 outside pins 1 and 4.

The way NZ wiring is sending them out appears that they are pinning the signal to the HOME + which will never work on an Elite unless you swap the pins at the ECU end which you don't need to do.

Okay so some slight digging, you essentially pin it to GND and Trigger 1 (Link ECU reference). Trigger 2 is unused, I suspect that's the home signal.

Rb25Det Cas S1/s2 - Forced Induction Performance - SAU Community

12V is unused in this instance.

 

@robbo_rb180 got mine to start first go yesterday, but it does need a fair amount of cranking. I suspect it "might" want more fuel on crank.

I also went to town with the pulse prime, get those runners nice and moist when it's cold lol

Also tried adding more timing on crank, I think it makes it a bit harder to crank, will drop it all to 0s this week and try again

I'll go have a look and take a photo in a bit

That's the problem for the Haltech that they pin it to Trigger 1, which is actually your home + reference in physical wiring. This needs to be pinned to trigger 2 in the above diagram which is physically crank trigger position +.

I’m interested in this also..

just FYI, these are my wiring notes:

Elite 2500 wiring:

pin B1 = trigger + (black wire on sensor)

pin B5 = trigger - (white wire on sensor)

I also checked this with Scott from Haltech..

is this how you have it?

B5 Trigger - is not pinned from the rb Elite patch loom to the engine harness, but shouldn't matter as the ground wire on the cas loom is also a common signal ground which is also what the Link uses as its signal ground. The engine position should only need to be referenced onto B1 Trigger + so no ECU repining needs to be done.

Ah, sorry I am using one of their terminated harnesses. I checked continuity with multimeter back to the ECU pins to confirm they are connected

Just went to take a photo, I'm colour blind too so can't really tell what the 4th wire is, it's blue and something? LOL..

I'm using 1st wire as sensor GND and the 3rd wire (which is covered in heat shrink) as Trigger.

And yes, I should re-terminate that plug, I have a spare one to go on too - just forgotten about it.

At least I’m not the only one they color blind, going to make it a nightmare wiring the engine up when the time comes lol

When I used to do quite a bit of wiring (when I was younger, didn't have back pain and had plenty of spare time) I would actually take photos and send it to my girlfriend at the time (wife now) and ask her what the colours were LOLOLOL.

That’s basically my plan, every time I cant work it out I’ll get my mrs to tell me what it is

    • Is there a diameter difference in the stock to Nismo? If so, the weight alone won't be indicative when comparing flywheels of the same diameter, since the radius of the flywheel acts on the moment of inertia with a square factor, where as mass is linear. Roughly going from a 4.5kg flywheel with radius 20cm, to a 9kg flywheel with radius 14cm would see them act the same. This calc is just here to act as a brief numbers comparison and reflects no actual RB flywheel diameters etc. it also assumes even weight distribution (thickness) throughout.
    • It seems this could be due to a restructure/team direction change... Or... You're working with a different category of vehicle... Or you've decided you'd rather be able to play with your own cars again...   I'm hoping the latter...
    • had 4 weeks off over xmas and well did some stuff to the shed and BRZ, well short of is I don't work full time in supercars anymore as of yesterday.........
    • Did you get any down time over Christmas, or have you had any since to play with this? Or have you given up and are trying to get yourself a second hand V8SC instead?
    • A random thought I had just before I hit "Submit on this post". If brake fluid, in a container in my garage that has never been opened goes bad after 18 months, why can I leave it in my car for 24 months in an "unsealed container"... Secondly, some other digging, and brake fluid manufacturers seem to be saying 5 year shelf life... Me thinks there line on 18 months for an unsealed bottle is pretty much horse shit marketing spin. Kind of like how if you drive a car and don't run a turbo timer your turbo and motor will die horribly...   Where I started on this though... Someone (me) started down a bit of a rabbit hole, I don't quite have the proper equipment to do Equilibrium Reflux boiling per the proper test standards. I did a little digging on YouTube, and this was the first video I found on someone attempting to "just boil it". This video isn't overly scientific, as we don't have a known reference for his test either. Inaccuracy in his equipment could have him reaching the 460 to 470f boiling point range in reality. In the video, using a laser temp gun, he claims his Dot3 that's been open in his florida garage for over a year gets to about 420 to 430 fahrenheit (215 to 221c) Doing some googling, I located an MSDS for that specific oil, and from new, it claims a dry boiling point of 460 to 470f. Unfortunately they don't list a wet boiling point for us to see how far it degraded toward its "wet" point. While watching it I was thinking "I wonder what the flash point is..." turns out its only 480f for that specific brake fluid....   As for testing the oil's resistance, I might not be able to accurately do that unfortunately. Resistance level will be quite a LOT higher than my system can read I suspect based on some research. However, I might be able to do it by measuring the current when I apply a specific voltage. I won't have an actual water % value, but I'll have some values I can compare between the multitude of fluids. I'll run some vague calculations later and see if I should be able to read any reliable amount of current. These calcs will be based on some values I've found for other oils, and see how close I'll need my terminals together. From memory I can get down to 1pA accuracy on the DMM. I don't think my IOT Power Tester has any better resolution.
