IS300 with G35 accelerator pedal installation and Drive-By-Wire configuration


**page under construction**..but it's functional for now, I'm updating it when I have time, I have a mechanic background NOT a web design background.

YouTube Video here G35/350z Accelerator Pedal Pinout(multipled Nissan/Infinity's use this sensor, pins are the same, wire colors are different). >br>Wiring described at #:## of this a href video
pins 1 and 3 are sensor ground.
-(NOT chassis ground), connect to the ECU.
pins 4 and 6 are 5v in.
-connect 5v from your ECU.
pin 2 is sub pedal sensor signal 2 (APS2).
pin 5 is main pedal sensor signal 1 (APS1).
connect pins 2 and 5 to your ECU input.

note 1: "ECU" mentioned above refers to your engine management.
note 2: this setup is preferred as it has a cheap replacement sensor that's easily sourced ($20 for OEM).

Advantages/Disadvantages described at #:## and #:## of a href this video
Advantages: Direct bolt in to firewall and cheap sensor that's easy to source and replace.
Disadvantages: Requires bending pedal arm forward 30 degrees and CANNOT be used with OEM IS300 ECU.

Fitment instructions
Step 1: Bend pedal arm forward 30 degrees.
Step 2: Source two 1.5 inch m6x1.0 bolts.
Optional extra steps
Step 3: Install a 2 inch long m6x1.00 stud on the top pedal mount hole on the firewall (makes installation easier).
Step 3.5: Ignore steps 4-8 if you can weld. cut both pedal arms, weld the IS300 lower on the G35 upper. Done!
Step 4: Remove your IS300 pedal pad with a punch tool.
Step 5: Grind off the G35 pedal 90 degree tip
Step 6: Grind off excess around the pedal arm bottom end to allow it to fit into the IS300 pedal pad.
Step 7: Fasten the IS300 pad on the G35 pedal arm with old coat hanger or thick copper wire in a "U" shape
Step 8: Use epoxy to hold everything steady, the wire holds it on the pedal arm, epoxy just ensures it stays still

FR-S/BRZ APPS pinout
Pinout from HPAcademy:
Pins 1 and 4 are 5V from your ECU
Pins 2 and 5 are Sensor ground
Pin 3 DBW - APP2
Pin 6 DBW - APP1

note 1: "ECU" mentioned above refers to your engine management.
note 2: potentially the same pinout as the IS250/IS350 from 06->, needs verification.
note 3: APPS1 and APPS2 can go to either APPS 1 or 2 inputs on the Haltech ECU. It will determine which is which during calibration.

Advantages: The foot pad matches the IS300 brake/clutch style. No other advantages come to mind except how easily the parts are to find used on eBay.
Disadvantage 1: Custom mount needed in order to adapt to your firewall
Disadvantage 2: Sensor/Pedal assembly are one whole unit. Expensive to replace if it fails.

STL (3D print) file on the left.
This is something I found on STLfinder.com. It's for the IS250 06/07, but the bracket looks similar to the BRZ/FR-S mount points, so it may work or need some slight modification to fit a BRZ/FR-S pedal.

Bosch DBW pinout
Applies to most Bosch DBW (except 52mm). Verify with part number listing (link below) for other Bosch DBW TBs
Pin 4: Motor+
Pin 1: Motor-
Pin 2: Sensor Ground
Pin 3: 5v Supply
Pin 6: TPS 1 signal
Pin 5: TPS 2 signal

Note 1: Data sheet calls for 6v-16v supply signal, this is referring to the voltage to the DBW motor and not the sensor supply voltage. Verifiable via Haltech's 82mm Bosch info sheet.
Note 2: Using this throttle body requires an adapter (see website below)
Note 3: TPS 1 and TPS 2 on the DBW can go to either TPS 1 or TPS 2 respectively on the Haltech ECU, the Haltech determines which is which during calibration.

Advantages: Bosch reliability, plus all of the drive-by-wire advantages, and it's easy to source a replacement if needed.
Disadvantages: Engine management is required and adapters can be pricey unless you can source a cheap one or know a welder who will weld the flange on your manifold.
