Bit the bullitt the other day and finaly got the Det Sensor replaced on my Z cause I was PI55ED off with it being in Safe Mode all the time!!!

A new det sensor cost £170 from Nissan and new wiring to the ECU + labor etc cost in total £674.93p!!! Car is now running full boost all the time (When it reaches temprature anyway!)

 

Was really hot in Cornwall today too and no more safety boost!! Am well happy now she's back to normal, forgot how much of a difference in performance the car makes between full boost and safe mode..

 

The old det sensor was cracked and also had mega green corrosion on the terminals, the wiring to the ECU was also old and brittle.. It's a big job to do and expensive but to anyone that's having safemode problems I can say you won't regret having your det sensor replaced and a healthy Z that's always gonna give max boost when you want/need it!! Gonna get it dynoed again soon so will let you all know what BHP / torque difference it makes!! :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :duffer:

674 for a det sensor !! fookin hell !! where did u get that done ????

I fixed mine too... 4 pence for a 1megohm resistor to bypass it :D

 

I will get it replaced if I ever have to have the engine out, but Im happy enough with the bypass.

 

Your right though, the difference between Safety mode and Normal is unbelieveable

674 for a det sensor !! fookin hell !! where did u get that done ????

 

That was with the labour involved too dude!! As the whole head has to come off to get to the little bugger as it's right in the V!! The new wire from the det sensor to the ECU was also uprated using gold multistand wiring the all put in a heatresistant magneticially sheilded cable covering... Prevention is better than cure!! Imagine putting the whole lot back together then still getting CODE 34!! Didn't wanna take any chances!!!!

My ol' lady is a debt sensor...
