I'm at Turton St, just off Mains Road - the street that everyone hoons up and down everynight!  Actually i keep hearning a Skyline that has the same 'bad rattling' noise as mine - must be the R33 series 1's!!

I used to go to school off that street. Back in the day...

I'm at Turton St, just off Mains Road - the street that everyone hoons up and down everynight!  Actually i keep hearning a Skyline that has the same 'bad rattling' noise as mine - must be the R33 series 1's!!

I used to live in station rd there in Sunnybank where it crosses turton st HAHA.

the salmon-creamy low set accross the rd from the shops up the end there. and no my gts doesn't have a rattle, but it has a bloody throaty howl.

I wish my Skyline had a throaty howl, but im saving the cash to help my man hurry up and freekin get his mark 1 escort up and running! He's putting a twin turbo RB20 in it so atleast something with have a 'howl' to it - the things you do to keep a man happy! but god damn it i want a throaty howling skyline. Hey yeah with the Chilli night - i work just round the corner from Hyperdome and if anyone feels the need to drive to Commercial Dr (behind Nutrimetics) to the Childcare centre and do a few 'skiddies' - feel free - i give you permission!! But i can't make it that night - you won't believe me . . but I'm having dinner with Tom Cruise - no wait . . .. it's just my mum! Doh! But if it's an ongoing thing - might make it next time.

Im at hillcrest.

See a few of you guys around, Cya34 all the time on beaudesert road, DAN666 mostly on johnson road, seen dangerous davo once, shy32 (unfortunatly) hehee just jokes sylv!

I got a pretty stock looking 33GTR with turbos that are too laggy, so if you race a midnight purple 33 that doesnt look like its making any boost till about 7000rpm that would be me :P new nismo turbs coming soon though.

Hehehe, is that where I saw you??? I thought I was doing well too... :P

Yeah dude I've seen you before, cool us Southys rule, next time stop me for a chat.

Cheers

Every time I see you chris your always goin the other way, plus you seem to be flogging it, dont know what your fuel consumption is like :D

Your partner is cya32 hey? I used to see it parked at the child care centre place all the time, I saw her coming out of the shops at sunnybank once and I beeped and waved cause I thought it was shy32.. then I realised it wasnt, ooops.. she just gave me funny looks

Yeah I know it's always the way , next time I'll stop.

Me, flog it?,:innocent: never, but my fuel consumtion is crap lucky work pays for it (GOD I LOVE MY JOB).:cheers:

Yeah CYA32's my girl, she used to work at the child care but works down in Logan now. She'd take that as a complementif she knew you thought it was shy's, she loves shy's 32 and so do I.

Cheers

Chris

    • I'd be installing 2x widebands and using the NB simulation outputs to the ECU.
    • Nah, it's different across different engines and as the years went on. R32 era RB20, and hence also RB26, the TPS SWITCH is the idle command. The variable resistor is only for the TCU, as you say. On R33 era RB25 and onwards (but probably not RB26, as they still used the same basic ECU from the R32 era), the idle command is a voltage output of close to 0.45V from the variable resistor.
    • It's actually one of the worst bits of Nissan nomenclature (also compounded by wiring diagrams when the TCU is incorporated in ECU, or, ECU has a passthru to a standalone TCU).... the gripe ~ they call it the TPS, but with an A/T it's actually a combined unit ...TPS (throttle position switch) + TPS (throttle position sensor).... ..by the looks of it (and considering car is A/T) you have this unit... https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/2262002u11 The connector on the flying lead coming out of the unit, is the TPS (throttle position sensor) ...only the TCU reads this. The connector on the unit body, is the TPS (throttle position switch) ...ECU reads this. It has 3 possible values -- throttle closed (idle control contact), open (both contacts open, ECU controls engine...'run' mode), and WOT (full throttle contact closed, ECU changes mapping). When the throttle is closed (idle control contact), this activates what the patent describes as the 'anti stall system' ~ this has the ECU keep the engine at idling speed, regardless of additional load/variances (alternator load mostly, along with engine temp), and drives the IACV solenoid with PWM signal to adjust the idle air admittance to do this. This is actually a specific ECCS software mode, that only gets utilized when the idle control contact is closed. When you rotate the TPS unit as shown, you're opening the idle control contact, which puts ECCS into 'run' mode (no idle control), which obviously is a non-sequitur without the engine started/running ; if the buzzing is coming from the IACV solenoid, then likely ECCS is freaking out, and trying to raise engine rpm 'any way it can'...so it's likely pulling the valve wide open....this is prolly what's going on there. The signal from the connector on the flying lead coming out of the unit (for the TCU), should be around 0.4volts with the throttle closed (idle position) ~ although this does effect low throttle shift points if set wrong, the primary purpose here is to tell TCU engine is at idle (no throttle demand), and in response lower the A/T line pressure ... this is often described as how much 'creep' you get with shifter in D at idle. The way the TPS unit is setup (physically), ensures the idle control contact closes with a high margin on the TPSensor signal wire, so you can rotate the unit on the adjustment slots, to achieve 0.4v whilst knowing the idle control contact is definitely closed. The IACV solenoid is powered by battery voltage via a fuse, and ground switched (PWM) by the ECU. When I check them, I typically remove the harness plug, feed the solenoid battery voltage and switch it to ground via a 5watt bulb test probe ; thing should click wide open, and idle rpm should increase... ...that said though, if it starts & idles with the TPS unit disconnected, and it still stalls when it gets up to operating temperature, it won't be the IACV because it's unused, which would infer something else is winking out...  
    • In the context of cam 'upgrader' I mean generally people who upgrade headers/cams - not my specific change. I mean it makes sense that if I had a bigger cam, I may get more false lean readings. So if I went smaller, I'd get less false lean readings. To a point where perhaps stock.. I'd have no false lean readings, according to the ECU. But I'm way richer than stock. My bigger than normal cam in the past also was giving false rich leanings. It's rather odd and doesn't add up or pass the pub test. Realistically what I want is the narrowbands to effectively work as closed loop fuel control and keep my AFR around 14.7 on light sections of the map. Which is of course the purpose of narrowband CL fuel control. So if I can change the switch points so the NB's target 14.7 (as read by my WB) then this should be fine. Haven't actually tested to see what the changed switchpoints actually result in - car needs to be in a position it can idle for awhile to do that. I suspect it will be a troublesome 15 min drive home with lots of stalling and way too rich/lean transient nightmare bucking away for that first drive at 2am or whevener it ends up being. Hopefully it's all tune-able. Realistically it should be. This is a very mild cam.
    • Messing with narrowband switchovers is a terrible bandaid. I don't want to think about it. You are a cam "upgrader" only in concept. As you said, your new cam is actually smaller, so it's technically a downgrade. OK, likely a very small downgrade, but nevertheless. But the big thing that will be the most likely suspect is the change of the advance angle. That change could be equivalent to a substantial decrease in cam lobe duration. I haven't gone to the effort of trying to think about what your change would actually cause. But until someone (you, me (unlikely), Matt, someone else) does so and comes to a conclusion about the effect, it remains a possibility that that is the change that is causing what you're seeing.
