The 1.3 Turbo Battle####

Eurgh you guys don't know how happy I am with driving the car down the road. Was hilarious. The LSD makes her a hand full I must say. Mini skids all the time woop.

Aye hopefully I'll resolve the pipe size issue... reduce the engine feed pipe again coz lathe and T in a bleed as frank suggested. Hopefully job solved :)
Worst case scenario put mech pump back on :)
Well let's just hope it works ey. I want to be taken out in that beast. Let me have a sneakky go? You can have the same. :)

I'm just routing for yours now :)
Ta lad :) nearly there... Nearlllyyyyy. Of andy is not up for letting me borrow his cat I will rip the one off the daily. But its bigger :/ @ frank mine is a 51 plate 1 litre. Is it still fine to use?

All I have exhaust wise is the backbox delete pipe I just made, unless you wanna wrestle with 20 yo bolts...
 
Lol .. That would be fun haha okay maybe try the facelift once frank gets back

Yea I've got my fingers crossed :) Hard to work like that but I need the luck :p
I'm pretty overprotective of this micra. I'm less attached to Nissanubaru :rolleyes: but I dont mind passenger rides ;)
 
I have just realised I haven't soldered this thing back on.. Its the neutral sensor no? Does that place any part to anything?

oily turbo could've badly contaminated the primary cat, O2 and wideband so it doesn't work so well?
I am thinking the second cat is damaged after the miss hap along time a go. But its working somewhat. Its no doubt not helping that its not been really thrashed down the motorway for an hour or so to really clear her out.

I'll try find a link to a post I made prev bout how the neutral switch affects idle speed at various speeds.

Not now cos busy working myself to death for tomorrow's deadline before I then begin another long period of fixing the car.

Guys when. Putting the clutch in.. I am correct that the raised face on the clutch goes towards gearbox yeah. All this Joe and damaged clutches are panicking me

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 4
yes chris, else the cushdrive springs catch the f/w bolts
 
Is psychic I was just thinking if anyone is ever going to catch up on that one lol. Been worrying about every clutch change I have done since joes lol. I saw that u answered a question years ago after a search on the forum has anything changes for you km this frank. My neutral sensor isn't connected reckpm that could alter the way the engine is managed making it a little rich as if its actually got load? Thinking it is in gear?

my a/f/r gauge does,nt seem to respond differently to the disconnected speed sensor chris, i doubt if the neutral switch does either.
its probably more for idle control input tbh (and not emissions sensitive)

just found I mentioned bout the neutral switch & IACV on blog post 470 & 474

just noticed summin interesting bout the IAV

with the clutch engaged, whenever ur travelling above 5mph and in gear, the ecu keeps the IAV open so it idles at 1300rpm

if either ur speed drops below 5mph or you pop into neutral, then the IAV closes and idles back down to 700rpm

i'm guessing the iav opens the throttle abit in those situations in order to ensure the engine can run at idle rpm whilst overcoming the slight additional load of being in gear and driving the wheels such as during slow traffic jams. without the extra throttle opening via IAV the additional driving load under closed throttle would simply lower the rpm below 700rpm and more likely to stall

Hmm okay then. Just me worrying then. Will hook her up anyway tomorrow. As for what Paul mentioned below.

Sweet thank you Paul. Well I best hook her up I do like the high idle in traffic. I was wondering if it did it without load and may have kept idle up in gear but as its not attached it would assume its actually in gear. Possibly effecting emissions. Will hook her up anyway for the luxury lol.

So after battling the car I finally got her out.. Jesus it took so,e work nearly every bolt seized in placed and manny of them snapped in so I had to remove and will replace. Got them all out so not to hacked off. Will fit tomorrow and see if they will test her again for me. Hopefully we will be okay. Up early me thinks to get it over and done with...if failed at least I will have to resolve whatever issues occur.

Oh the main luxury of the evening was the exhuast pipe bolts. Obviously the people who replaced the exhuasts over the years could not be bothered to replace bolts so they were rounded before i got there.

I had to take the blade off a hacksaw to get in the awkward space to one inch punch saw technique the bolts gahhhrrr . Oh well we got there.

the "high-idle in-gear whilst moving" feature requires the neutral switch and speed sensor connected to the ecu.

on my turbo map, the speed sensor causes the ecu to lean-out under 4-5th gear for some reason (low rev high speed triggering an odd effect in nistune)

so my speedo sensor is usually disconnected off
(got a switch on the wire nearby so I can turn on the speedo sensor during heavy traffic for the high idle in gear feature
and then once traffic has cleared, I switch the sensor off to ensure correct mixture during 4-5th gear)

That is a bit odd. Clever idea. I should write these things out and ask Ed if they will effect my setup also

its ed (fusion) who highlighted the speed sensor/closed looping effect chris, i think its there to stop fuel enrichment all the way up a long hill in 4th and 5th (which would kill the cat)
