I have a set of the McKinney tubular manifolds for the swap and they clear the steering rack...didn't clear the head or coolant neck on the passenger side though. Had to trim a small tab off of the head, and shorten the coolant neck. They sound bitchin' though!

Good info man! I've got a ton of notes on my swap that I'll put up when I have some time to go through it all

Same pinout. The only thing that changed was the IPDM and the only thing that would be different on the harness are F1-F2-F3 plug wires. ECU pinout is the same.

As it turns out, This is way easier to wire in to an S13 as the relays are already set up for it.

For those of you that have gotten their ecu's flashed, did you have to ask for anything specific other than getting NATS removed? is there any other ecu functions you need disabled so that it doesnt get pissed when you don't have a bunch of the other accessories and whatnot that the Z would normally have?

Also, i've got a flashed '05 G35 automatic sedan ecu and engine harness. i'm trying to figure out how or why i'm not getting spark. could it be because i'm using the sedan/auto ecu and harness? everything in the harness seems to be the same minus some extra transmission stuff.

The Auto ECU and Harness should not affect anything. Did you follow this guide or did you wire it up yourself?

It usually not getting power to the junction boxes. Test for 12v and ground in the corresponding places.

Quote:
Junction Boxes
Now there is 4 junction boxes intertwined in the VQ harness that splits up 12v and grounds to all the sensors, and coils.
Pin number in parenthesis

white/blue (JC3) 12v hot to:
Ignition coil x 6 (3)
Evap Vent Valve (1)
Intake Valve Timing Solenoid x2 (2)

Red/Black (JC4) 12v hot to
O2 Sensors x4 (2)

Red/White (JC4)12v hot to
Cam Position Sensor x2 (3)
MAF (2)
EVAP Purge Valve (1)
Crank Position Sensor (1)

Black/white (JC1) Ground supplied through ECU
ECM (67)
MAF (6)
MAF (3)
Power Steering Pressure Sensor (3)
Coolant Temp Sensor (2)
Refrigerant Pressure Sensor (3)
Evap Pressure Sensor (1)

And I bumped my rev limit up 200 or so rpm, removed what would throw codes for Evap, and the dude from Z1 question what motor mods I had... i.e....z1 intake, free exhaust, plenum spacers, manifolds...etc.... I'm thinking you can use Osiris to maybe base/shelf tune.

ZFever and Z1 both shelf tune those ECU's when they do NATs removal. I went and had my car tuned at UpRev after my swap, and other than smoothing out the powerband a bit, they said they couldn't get me much more power. Most of the things they would've done, had already been done.

Any reason you decided to go Haltech and not use the stock harness? I've got a donor car and am about to put a VQ35HR in my S13 and plan on pretty much using all Z electronics. Did you just want more tuning capabilities?

The stock ecu plus Osiris (what everyone uses to disable nats) is plenty capable for any NA car. The only time I see a $2500+ stand alone would be for a more then stock block FI build.

I am currently in the middle of this swap and having some issues getting the car to run. I followed the write and got everything wired in accordingly. Nats has also been removed. But i dont get any fire(spark) from the plugs and am also getting nothing from the fuel injectors. Ive tested power and grounds at the coils and am also getting signal, but still cant get any spark or fuel.

Here are a list of codes that i am getting,
-------- ECU --------

Found: 7 codes!
**********
P1212,ABS/TCS Communication Line
**********
P1610,Lock Mode,unregistered key used 5 times, BCM or ECM is malfunctioning
**********
U1001,CAN communication line
**********
P1564,ASCD Steering Switch
**********
P0183,Fuel Temperature Sensor A Circuit High Input
**********
P0462,Fuel Level Sensor Circuit Low Input
**********
P0447,Evaporative Emission Control System Vent Control Circuit Open

Any help or insight would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
Clayton

That p1610 doesn't sound right. That sounds like it is still looking for the bcm which will stop your car from running.

Ive also tried contacting UpRev about these codes, to try and figure out why it would throw the p1610 with NATS disabled. They pretty much to me to go F' myself.

Would the p1610 still show show with the NATS system disabled?

I don't have it. The rest of them I do. It shouldn't be there. It wouldn't call it an issue with uprev but more of an issue of who flashed your ecu. Who was it?

I am the one who flashed the ecu. I bought the package from uprev and had them send me a Rom file nats disabled.

I knew it wasn't "their problem" I was just hoping I could get a little more support out of them in trying to figure things out with the ecu and eliminating anti theft.

I'm assuming you have the tuner version. Everything I have been told is that tuner won't allow you to disable NATS that a authorized tuner/distributor can do that. That is why I had to go to z1 instead of having the full version at y disposal.

Are you getting injectors to fire? My first thought when you said not getting spark was getting the correct power to the junction boxes.

Make sure you have 12v constant at white/blue wires.

I have the tuner version and Uprev sent me the a stock rom with nats removed. I was able to get my car to fire last night after playing with some settings. but now i cant get the car to consistently to run, its seems to be all in the details. Turn off certain things to not trigger certain fault codes. And im not sure which things are turned off and what stays on. Its something associated with the BCM.

I called around and no one wants to share that information with me, which is understandable. They could potentially lose business if that information were to get out.

What would really help is if someone with the tuner version could send me a rom so that i can see what the way its configured.

That would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
Clayton

Ive figured out that i need to pay someone to remove the BCM functions... kinda sucks but as long this car will run after then im happy. Im actually in the middle of calling around to have that done.

I would highly suggest to see what Z1 motorsport could do for you. Probably the best Osiris dealers/tuners out there.

It may be in your best interest to sell the tuner version and just buy the flash. Unless you are going to do the tuning yourself, letting a Osiris dealer do all of it is cheaper.

The Idea behind purchasing the tuner version was so that i could "learn" to tune. Plus i have a good friend of mine that tunes and he was going to show that side of things. I figured what better car to learn on than my own car.

Ill pay a little extra to have it set up correctly and then go from there.

Can't you just give ecu pin 3,119,120 12v power from a single
relay? I'm doing switch panel and already have 8 relays.
