where do you live

yes

no need to disconnect the battery, its fine to do. just make sure the car isnt running to be safe

maybe exhaust pressure might give away some info ?

no idea, but a maxima isnt exactly a power house

we need to fix this, if we are going to have any hope of it working

i just dont see how the boost control kit would work if the boost reading youve set to be desired and duty control, but the boost control the PFC is seeing is way off like if you set the target boost to be 1.2bar at 80 duty cycle thats fine but if the map sensor signal is wacko and it only ever see's say 0.30bar cos its wrong, then it has little hope of working, or at least i dont see how?

wow lots of reported posts, thanks for cleaning up bec/adz

pretty sure the last digit is auto control logic in the PFC it shouldnt change that i know of, like its it not meant to

how much do you expect to gain with the the copy or the greddy one ?

added boost kit port pinout diagram added firmware / eprom hacking on the powerfc

write a letter to the chief of police explaining how you are un happy that you have been pulled over in your illegally modified import skyline and think its unfair. im sure it will be on the notice board for a few weeks so they can all have a good laugh. in all seriousness, yes they will hassle imports. if i was the chief of police i would be asking my guys to hassle imports also, they are generally illegally modified more so vs your avg mum & dad car

rb20 vs rb25 you can see the 25 is larger

must be good for $200

ok well there is the first problem if the boost display isnt correct then you have very little hope of controlling it correctly, other than guesstimation. what is the part no# on the map sensor? it sounds like you may have a different rated map sensor

can u post a picture of what SETTING, BOOST looks like? or just the numbers? does MONITOR, BOOST show the true values or wrong values? the only time i have boost control not work correctly is when the solenoid was backwards

i had an odd problem where my speedo would go spastic and the hicas light would flash. it was only after a certain rpm. i found the rsm RevW value when reached causes the speed to go from whatever speed to 0 and back again over and over (dance style) and hicas flashing. i had to set the RevW value to 11000rpm to get around it. very odd

actually in the interests of the community i think ill spend some time on it it cant be too hard surely?

wonder how hard it is to adapt a BNR33 pfc to ECR33 that would be ace, with working airtemp

turbo lag comes from the compressor not being efficient until it reaches a high speed, say 50,000+ rpm? when the compressor isnt spinning fast enough it doesn't produce much positive pressure or airflow so the engine just is burning whatever air comes in. as the compressor gets faster and faster from exhaust gas/engine load the compressor beings to "compress" the intake and stuff more air in. when there is little exhaust gas the compressor doesnt spin fast enough, so its referred to as lag. common for the skyline range is nothing before say 2500rpm. past this theres enough exhaust gas to wind the compressor into its effiency zone and usually get around 10psi positive "boost" pressure before 3000rpm. as engine displacment and type changes, along with turbocharger technologoy, engine tune etc so to does the engine lag. so there are a few things you can do to reduce turbocharger lag

yeah its a nice device hey yeah the shift light is optional that i can see on the evo forums theres a video of one dude that has a 2 step spark cut limiter. the video shows the car stationary with 1.3 bar ready to go and lotsa flames out the exhaust

no sorry, never used it. when i get an evo i will get one for sure i see no use it for in my skyline (rear wheel drive & stock ceramic exhaust wheel) from memory youll need or want; stand alone ecu or good remap steel wheel exhaust wheel no cat exhaust temp gauge might be a good idea good traction
