  1. Hey guys, Been looking at taking out the alarm system in my EP91 and noticed that the guy who wired it up did a crap job! To get power and other things needed for the alarm he stripped the insulation off the wires he needed to use and then wrapped the wire around it and wrapped it up with insulation tape. no solder, no crimps, no nothing. I was going to install something else into the car, but I cant attach the battery looking like it is with all the exposed wires. Is anyone able to provide me with a wiring diagram, or let me know which wires are which for the ignition. Tha
  2. Nah I thought that at the start, but its actually flopping around but does anyone know if you can replace the bearing without taking the transmission out? Cheers
  3. Hi everyone, Are you able to change the diff bearing without taking the gearbox out of the car? The drive shaft is flopping around in the gearbox at the moment
  4. Yeah it does seem crazy, but ill give it a go. its not going to cost me much. If I do try it, ill be sure to post it on the forums here. It could be a cheaper option for people on a budget ;)
  5. I did receive a refund in the end, so happy in that respect. Once I have converted mine to manual I might try going down the track of speeduino. It would only be a few hundred dollars to give it a go. Its a free open source ECU that's built on the Arduino platform. Here is a link for anyone interested: https://speeduino.com/wiki/index.php/Speeduino
  6. Ahh that makes perfect sense. I'm pretty sure its a standard actuator, Are there any other standard turbos that would fit on the standard manifold? So I must have a boost leek somewhere in the high boost line. Is there an easer way of connecting it up without having to connect to that hard line that goes behind the power steering pump? Just to see if that is the actual problem?
  7. Hey guys, I have a standard glanza no mods done what so ever. Before I bought the car the owner before me had replaced the turbo (with a standard one I presume?) So the car runs fine in low boost, as soon as you go high boost it seems to hit the fuel cut. no engine light comes on though. I'm wondering if when he put the wastegate lines back on wrong? Does anyone have a diagram on how to plumb these up? I bought the car cheap thinking this would be an easy fix. How does the closed loop boost work on these cars? because if it works on low boost the wastegate must be open
  8. Thanks Stu, ill have to look into it. Where abouts are you from in NZ? Matt has agreed to a refund after I took it to 2 tuners here, and they both said the same thing, automatic gear box is blocking it. So I have sent it back and they are testing the ECU. so I haven't seen any money yet.
  9. Awesome thanks very much for that, I wonder if the EP82 is different to the EP91 Auto
  10. Hi there, Does anyone have or know where I can find a ECU pin out diagram for a Automatic ECU. I have done a Google search and can only find manual ones. Thanks
  11. Yeah still have the automatic gearbox. I don't think ME was aware they needed a automatic gear box control. And I'm sure they would tell me if their ECU had the function, since I am in contact about the issue I'm having. Still just waiting for my refund....
  12. I have been trying to get a refund - No luck. They say I need to get it tuned. I did look into keeping it Kiwi made going for a Link, would have cost the same amount for the ECU, but I would have also had to pay for wiring it up and tuning. having something that is "Plug n Play" plugging into the existing wiring harness seemed like an easy and cheaper way of doing it. I'm not chasing massive amounts of power, just a little more boost without hitting the fuel cut. I think it is too, but ME is denying that is the problem. It has to do something with it interfacing wit
  13. Yeah I have plugged in the old ECU, but I don't really have the money right now to dyno tune the car after paying over $1000NZD for the ECU. They are far from plug and play. I don't think much R&D went into this ECU or research alone. When I bought the ECU I ticked the box to receive an ECU for a EP91 because I have an EP91. It comes with a 3 plug ECU, if you have a manual ECU it is only 2 plug. Lucky mine is an Auto and is 3 plug. Before I bought the ECU I asked if it works with an auto, and they said it would. I think that's where half my problems are coming from
  14. HI there, Has anyone out there got a standard tune for a EP91. One that has been tuned on a dyno would be great. I loaded on the base map from there website before anyone asks, but it has no power and wont go over 2300RPM making it difficult to drive to a dyno. Has anyone else loaded on the base map from their website? did you have similar problem? Thanks in advance
