Mate take it to no one but Kutzie at Pro Automotive......  He's been doing them for so long with enough experience to really know what he's doing.  Good job, good price and fantastic support.

Yeah Andy has been doing my stuff for years. Very good with PFC.

check out the update thread in the Tassie section of the Nissansilvia.com forums...

Not only that but personal experince as well.

The biggest problem we have here in Tassie and no disrespect to Andy at all but we really dont have a tuner down here that has enough experince or that is confident with aftermarket ECU's like the PFC, E-management, Microtech, Haltech etc.

Sam tuned my stock ECU (i sent it to him via express post) did the tune i asked for with the readings and info i gave him and its was 99.99% on the money.

Not bad considering he didn't even touch the car (just told me the settings to go with)

So as for getting a tune with the PFC, i'll wait till we fly Sam down for the dyno day or i'll go and see Brad and have a little trip to Launie :D

Just my 2cents so dont go taking it to heart, like i said im going off personal experince and from friends experience and have made up my "OWN" mind.

Cheers B

Does brad Sherif tune PFC? I went to him to get mine done, and he said he wasn't convinced about there tuning ablility, and they can take to long to tune. He said that I was probably getting it done somewhere else cause he would cost to much.

makes it pretty expensive having to go to Melb for a tune.

I think I'll just stick with my old mechanic for servicing requirements and when I can afford to, take it to racepace for a tune. Probably wont bother until we have 98RON at the pump tho.

Who said anything about going to melbourne <_<

We are looking at flying Sam over to do all our cars over here, but seeing as i have a road trip planned i'll be taking ANIMAL with me anyway so i'll stop in on the way and kill 2 birds with one stone :O

Umm i believe a good tuner can have a PFC on the way to a good tune in an hour... can anyone say Benno at Racepace?

should be around an hour or so for a "GOOD" tuner

Where is Racepace?

Melbourne champ

How long is he down for and when? Also who's dyno is he using? how much is he charging? Is he just remapping ecu's or is he open to doing powerfc's and SAFC IIs?

Is there a thread about this?? !!! :lol:

Its pretty obvious that if no one down here is good enough you'd take it to melbourne.

al_r33 racepace is own of the best known workshops for imports in australia. It's in melbourne: http://racepacemotorsport.com/main.html

    • Thanks Dose.....    I appreciate it!!
    • I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.
    • I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.   
    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.

    • Ha ha ha, so they stopped the bearings spinning on the one you want, but then decided the crank hub should slip instead 😛   Stick to RB, at least you can work on it yourself. And now it doesn't smell of vapour   Also I still believe there's a chance your new flap doesn't "pop", as even though the engine might breath hard, it has a direct path with no restriction to the inlet, which when on boost should pull a bit of suction for you. If you do get pressure in the catch can id be very intrigued. Time to put a boost gauge on it, and a session at the track, then solid cover your vent and do another session
