lixid, how do u expect to tune your powerfc and car effectively if you dont have a dyno? i mean there is always a road tune, but you just have sooo many different variables to look out for - how can you effectively tune a car whilst watching what the taxi in front of you is doing?

I think, spend the money on a decent workshop (i know this is hard to find) and be done with it. Your better off getting it done properly first time and not have to worry about it ever again.

My new ride comes within 8 weeks or so. I can't wait. PowerFC and front mount to go in, 40 and 60kw atw is a fantastic result guys! who did your tuning???

30-40 rwkw is a good gain so you should be happy with that.

dyno is just getting a result. dyno tune is more costly as it can take a while.

i just got mine tuned at bd4's and it cost me around $270. it can be more and it can be less depending on level of tune. i'd say yours will cost more as they will have to start from the begining remaping everything.

and, no a dyno tune is not necessary as the pfc comes with a basic map but i'd advise you get it to make most of the pfc. otherwise what's the point of getting pfc in the first place

ONARUN

my car looks the same as yours....

you got 60!!!!! that's alot man... i wish i can get 30-40kw out of it.

well

i will go to one of my friend's workshop, which i usually go for service and mods.

he doesn't have a dyno stuff. so it's hard to say how much power increase exactly. and i don't know how much rwkw i have now.

where do you guy usually go for dyno. and how much???

and when you people say dyno. do you mean dyno tune. or just get a result.....

is a dyno tune necessory???

by the way, how you guy put the little pic under you name??

i go to bd4's. just got one done for $270 and that was a light tune.

dyno tune is necessary once you get pfc to get the most out of it. otherwise don't bother with it.

yours will cost more than $270 i think as they'll need to remap most everything whereas mine was just a tweak.

j, as they say, it's plug and play

No way Jimbo,,,,,Unless you can get the 2nd hand one to go back to factory defualts. If it keeps it's memory from the last car,,,you'll have to get it tuned to yours. Onarun told me his kept it's memory when his battery went flat and had to change it.

Oh, sorry, I meant just in terms of installing thats all I'd have to do .... I'd then promptly be taking it to Hills to have it dyno tuned. Just wondering if I'd have to pay them to dyno tune and install, or just the tune ;)

It looks like I'll be able to get one with a hand controller for about $1000, which is a bargain.

Jimbo,,,Get Hills to install it,,,,much safer,,,you don't know what settings the last owner had. The Dyno is the be all and end all of a PFC.

Does he have 2,,,,$1000 for the puter and controler is real cheap buddy.

Jimbo: thats seriously cheap for a PFC AND controller.Make sure there is nothing wrong with it before you buy it.

Good second PFC's alone are going for significantly more than that.....if its all good then good score mate ;)

I will be getting a Power FC after the next round of exterior mods on my car. woohoo

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
