I'm not trying to hate on your FI dreams kamal...but you gotta decide when to pull the plug on this thing and how much farther you want to go.

Agreed it's no faster than the neighbor's kid on a skateboard if it isn't working.

Still it's hard to figure out, he's got to have the worst electrical/electronic troubles on a G/Z that I've heard about.

What year is your car? Is it an 03? Check this website out:

There was some sort of recall on the crank sensor due to an improper solder joint. Maybe it will help you. Its under the engine and cooling section.

I wish you the best of luck Kamal...

Maybe you should try to get some Karma on your side, have some one say a prayer for your car or give a donation to charity, lol. I'm serious believe it or not.

thats a great idea.I have contacted Infiniti already and the only thing they say the recall is for is the gas nozzle hoses or something.. No luck there.


Mikey, thats a good idea bro. I think my car got the eye. Thanks for the well wishes. I will say a prayer for it, please everyone here say one too. Thanks

What dealer have you tried to take it to? Try Kearny Mesa Infiniti on Convoy. VRT brings in their cars all the time.

I REALLY dont think this is that big of a deal. This car is REALLY not that hard to work on. Its really simple. Hook up a untouched harness WITHOUT the SS box and start the car. If this doesnt work hook the car up to the cipher tool and check for codes!

^ its not that easy. Only 1 code comes up and thats the crank position sensor. Weve taken out the SS box and tried to run it but it still chokes at 4000 rpm without SS box and stock injectors...

kearny mesa is the biggest $hit hole ever. The guys there didnt even wanna touch the car. Its still under warranty period. They did however try directing me to VRT. My car now is at another shop where they are trying to work on it. Hopefully they can get the problem fixed. If they cant, im taking it to VRT. I could keep tossing it around to different shops but that means a crap load of $$$$$! Everyone charges like $100/hour of labor... Im in the wrong business

Bro it is that easy. This shiet just doesnt happen. Just hooking up a TT kit wont make your car run like shiet! The only thing you have messed with is the wiring. Did you do a clutch and flywheel? Could also be the flywheel. Pull the motor out, thats four hours. Pull the harness with the motor. Check ALL connects. If you have a flywheel pull the tranny, that a hour tops. Check the flywheel. Put the stock flywheel back on if you have a aftermarket one. Its just problem solving. I'd have that shiet runnin in no time!

BTW if you do have a aftermarket flywheel and they put it on wrong. I would make them give you your money back!
