No...nothing additional....It can be programmed into your Map. It's referred to as a Throttle Hijack. This is how the guys at Fast Intentions are able to do a stand burnout at the 1/4 mile prior to staging.

Here's a short vid of the Throttle Hijack enabled via EcuTek. I had this done after my run with the GTR. Big thanks to Seb at Specialty Z. I shot him an email after my runs the night I raced the GTR regarding my issues of properly doing a stand burnout in order to warm up my drag radials. As you can see during my GTR burnout I could not do a standing burnout due to the ECU killing the throttle once it sensed the brake pedal. I also tried pulling the brake fuse like others had suggested but that didn't get me anywhere either as I ended up with the same issue of power to the motor being cut everytime I applied the brake. Seb responded back with the Throttle Hijack option as a solution. Here's a vid of it enabled into one of my maps.

VERY nice dude! So this is essentially another option other than the line lock. Did you have to add any sort of mod or just an update from Ecutek?

Just an update. All u need to do is get with ur tuner and have them enable the throttle Hijack into ur maps

I figured I would share some videos until I get her back on the road. All video filmed in Mexico and no racing involved.

BP Kit with precision 6766 1.15AR
1150cc injectors
cjm-s1-e fuel return kit
E85 flex fuel sensor
Ecutek
13 PSI on E85
hp/tq unknown as I didn't hit dyno ( Any guesses? )





30 to 140 mph pull while logging for tuner




Seeing how my new RE11's worked with TC completely disabled...




Testing ecutek launch control and traction control




A quick pull after installation with only 8psi wastegate pressure and open dumps before installing recirculation tubes.




Just playing around to catch spool and open dump noise. I miss it and may put dumps back on..

Seb with specialty Z did the remote tune on it. I have flex fuel, speed density, AFR and overboost protection, launch control, throttle hijack, and the list goes on. I recommend him hands down.

sounds sick man

Hard to beat race grade TC. Tech has improved so much in the last few years, it just everyone has left the platform to better things. We now have huge improvements with Ecu tek, motec M1 but no one wants to spend the money on developing the software and now emtron is on board to make a full plug n play stand-alone. Cjm and specialty Z now have the Dct which will be huge and a company pmc I believe is make a awd Dct 370. If there just this crowd need to nut up. I believe myself and a few others don’t have to worry about headlift anymore, questions now is where is the limit of the cast block.

I think i've seen you mention stuff about software before but.
Assuming a harness adaptor for a Haltech or Motec what software still needs to be developed?

When I contact haltech they said that VVEL is full supported and their ECU's are perfectly able to control a 370z with custom harness.

It will be the crank if the block holds together. 1200whp is going to be the limit for the rod bearings also. We will start to see rod bearing wear somewhere around there also. That will mean anything higher will need aluminum rods and will require more maintenance.

yeah basically replacing or rewiring all the OEM controls and displays (gauges) is a given unless you want to repeat what vitviper did and reverse engineer the entire car CAN bus. which is definitely possible, you can program motec to accept any can spec you want IIRC. High performance academy has a course on can bus that includes reverse engineering if you want to stop waiting for someone else to do it for you guys :D:D:D It's on my list to take.

Aside from that:

You can do cruise control via can keypad (aftermarket ecu controlled). you could also rewire the steering wheel controls to a can transmitter (similar to whats used in can keypads)

I was thinking about the possibility of taking https://www.demon-tweeks.com/no/summ...system-663360/

and wiring the outputs to the the same can transmitter to talk to ECU.

the Motec c1212 is a really nice looking dash I would probably use to replace the OEM one. because reverse engineering all the CAN for the oem system is honestly too much work.

other things related. a bosch motorsport ABS unit is definitely the way to go, it will output CAN codes you can read in the ECU to do traction control (wheel speed)
also you can disable it via CAN keypad if you want an ABS button.

you can see a lot of that coming together via motec here



definitely way easier to rewire the whole car tho than to integrate with oem can. but i've never reverse engineered a CAN before so I don't actually know how long it will take.



lol

It would be great if they would do it but I don't there is enough demand to justify the cost. If I do end up taking mine out in favour of the c1212 I guess I could probably give it a try but at that point there's not much incentive for me to do it, seeing as I'd have replaced my dash already /shrug



lol

this is also pretty interesting if anyone has any C++ knowledge. Though I'm sure there are can bus interfaces for most languages. I know there is a nodejs one.



Another EDIT:

VVEL control kb article is here for anyone interested

https://support.haltech.com/portal/e...lve-lift-elite

when i got my email back from haltech they said



I'm not sure if they meant they support the whole CAN protocol or just VVEL, so I've shot them an email to clarify.

yes that is very true. Though we have a couple people here that are intent on being on the "cutting edge" of what's possible with the VQ platform. and IMHO, a custom harness and ecu is what that looks like.

ok thanks for confirming what I said above guys!

Looks like it's perfectly doable even with oem gauges/sensors. Y'all just want someone to do the wiring work for you so it's easy to plug and play. Good luck!

That’s all hearsay. Mark based that off the De platform.
