hi guys,

this thread is targeted at people that own/have experience with power fc's...

i have a PFC Pro installed on my s13 running RB25DET... now i am sure that all PFC "PRO" models have L/C ... this should be found by selecting "REV LIMIT" and then hitting the "NEXT" button...

but when i try to get to it, it simply doesnt work... i press "NEXT" , arrow right and all possible keys (that i know of ) and nothing happens...

What am I doing wrong now??

here is a pict taken of my installed and running PFC...

thanks in advance

did that paul... it just didnt work... i have read in a few forums that this is the way to do it... but the solution is/was so simply that it hurts my brain :P

it's the one below engine REV -the one set to 4000- :) - silly huh?

i have no idea whether this is normal for the PFC to have it displayed there, but this is where its on mine... i changed it down to 2000 rpm just to be on the safe side, and it kept the revs on 2000 ... no clue WTF those silly japanese call it A/C ?? ;)

anyway, thats the solution and it sounds ILL !!! :)

the FC A/C and FC A/C (both of them) are idle settings used for when the A/C is on in the car. Each setting is for voltage load and no voltage load ie: lights on and demister. Those settings on the normal FC are 1100 and 1000 respectively so that the idle is slightly higher when you have the aircon and lights on etc.

So I'm wondering if the Pro version simply just has the aircon switch always on, what does it show under SENSOR/ SW CHECK ? How do you select when this "alternate" idle setting is active instead of the normal 700RPM idle?

no problems. thanks. i guess they just wanted to add that feature with as little as effort as possible. would have been helpful if they had of renamed the menu item. so how do you select when the higher idle is to be active ?

this is more simple... its just by the IDLE A/C off/on ... there i can choose what revs i want the car to idle when warm...

but since i have the RB25 wired in my s13, i made a compromise between when A/C is ON or OFF because i skipped the ECU when wiring the A/C... so currently i am happy with 870 as idle...

normal fc users cant set the fc a/c on/off values higher but with datalogit they can. i will test some time this week if the same functionality is achieved by editing the rpm value with datalogit and then manually activating the aircon relay without turning the aircon on

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
