Thanks JD.

Holy crap, i didnt realise that hose was not secured haha. maybe that is why my hicas light is on lol.

I got so confused about eveyone's directions on that controller, even the picture that was sent with the unit in the mail didnt make sense to me. People seems to put it in different ways. So I tried the manual version, and nothing happened, less boost and nothing when i turned the screw. then did it another way and it was overboosting like mad, so i had to unscrew coz i crapped myself thinking it would break somehting lol.

Anyway, thanks for pointing that out!

That "unsecured hose" is just a protective sleeve for your power steering line. What you have is normal and is nothing to worry about.

I dont care i would order one through ebay if i really had to but if he cant reply to my messages, how is he gonna send the item if i hit "Buy It Now".

I would like a reply just for acknowledgement at least.

try gapping you plugs to .7 or .6 and see if the miss disappears.

I suspect the miss is coil pack related from the symptoms you have described.

Hey guys just put this on my wrx with 181@ wheels on 16 psi, my old controller shit itself couldnt create no more boost. put this on and it totaly kicked its ass, hits 17psi by 3200 in 4th gear and holds it perfect there. im so glad i got this instead of something else... Took me about 1 minute to put it on and about 30 secs to adjust and i was soo happy with this product best 42 dollars i ever spent.

man just installed it, couldnt wait :) warmed up the car then stopped shoved it in on the side of a 70 road then checked what boost...it was a little bit "infinite" for my liking i had wound it out as far as possible and was expecting less than stock. turns out i used the wrong hose and after i figured it out (no net on the roads edge) it pulled to the mark between +7 and 0 on my stock r33 boost gauge.. in 2nd at like 2000rpm! kicks in hard used to sorta build over a second now its just bang. im not one to go over 3-4k rpm so im very happy with the result.

on r33 gtst, it is the two LARGEST DIAMETER hoses that are connected to the controller, everything else you can block or remove. Stock solenoid is taken out of the loop by removing the t piece and its small hose and plugging the other hose with a screw or similar. use the existing clips to hold the hoses to the controller and shazam u pull like a v8. a big v8.

      You know how I know I'm getting old? Because I feel this quote jells with me and SAU Forums, ha ha ha. I've gotten lost a few times as I had muscle memory to scroll to where I wanted on my phone and just click, now I'm lost... Ha ha ha     "I used to be with ‘it’, but then they changed what ‘it’ was. Now what I’m with isn’t ‘it’ anymore and what’s ‘it’ seems weird and scary."

      Rb25 into r31/wont idle

      By MBS206 · Posted

      You don't lose spark if your battery isolator isn't wired correctly and the ECU still has power from the alternator.   Car has an epic wiring problem. Sounds like power connected really really badly in places. Possibly a power pin on a ground pin for the ECU, and constant power in locations that should be switched ignition.   It needs someone good at diagnosing electrical, a good multimeter, and someone with the wiring diagrams to match the engine loom that has been put into the car, and wiring diagrams for the body side of things from the car.

      Front tower strut brace options

      By PNM35 · Posted

      Hi folks, what options exist for PNM35 or what models share the same dimensions and fitment for the front top of tower strut brace. I have seen a few options pop up through Google, the Ultra Racing Australia for one. I have seen some eBay ones that claim they fit C34 and M35 but can't find details if to work out if its true. Also found Taiko / TEMA4x4 claim the one type fits: - Nissan Stagea (2-nd gen; M35) 2001 - 2007, - Nissan Skyline (V35, HV35, NV35, V35, PV35) 2001 - 2007 - Infiniti G35, G35X (3-rd gen; V35) 2002 - 2006 But not sure how true that is. Anyone fitted one or know of someone using one and can confirm what does fit?

      AC Compressor

      By Butters · Posted

      I got the full kit.   The compressor as above is much smaller and lighter.  Also quieter. Bracket is visually mint and much lighter. The dryer and heat exchanger(rad) are one unit. Also smaller and lighter.  Much more room for an oil cooler. The fan I got was a bit Meh and I might change it.   And above all else it is more efficient, tested a good 3-4 degree's cooler than the old system, which is a lot. Disclaimer though - It wasn't a back to back test given different days. It really does feel colder though(always).  And this example is in my car with that crusty looking old compressor, not new vs new

      I did not need to see this! With summer quickly approaching... Did you just get the compressor with the bracket or the full kit with fan and everything? In what way is different to the old OEM one?
