Hey guys, I been reading up and apparently the series II RB25det's have NVCS which is like VVT/VVL.. and also apparently it is controlled by a solenoid somewhere on the engine... at the moment, untill I hit 4500RPM, the tourqe is nothing special.. but from 4500 to redline you get a huge rush of power!! its even noticable on my dyno graph...

Heres my question... is it possible to to have the solenoid always 'on' so that you have the advanced timming on bottom end too?? or to even connect a switch to it similar to the "high boost mode" idea???

Anyone got a pic of this solenoid??

Regards,

Sarkis

the VCT solenoid is the hexagonal thing coming out of the side of the head near the end of the fuel rail and the water outlet...

its a simple on/off solenoid which allows oil to flow into the unit on the end of the cam shaft, and change the advance/retard on the cam.

i actually believe that its "on" from about 1500 to 4500 and OFF before and after that.. so you actually sound like you want it off.

you can do a run with the solenoid unplugged and see if it helps your results, but i dont think it will..

im doing a kick off point rpm test at our next dyno day for the NVCS on the rb25. you do a dyno run with stock setup (kicks off at 4500) then plot power w/rpm. then turn nvcs off (make it kick off at say 1200rpm) then dyno run again. plot it on the same chart and the point where the two intersect is the ideal rpm kick off point. im not sure how useful it will be (if anything at all). but still something fun to try.

powerfc users can alter the kick off point via datalogit

right so it does vary a bit on each engine, sweet as.

in the powerfc i can only change the rpm point.

so it comes on always at about 1400 and then off again at 4500.

so you found the ideal kick off point is near 5500 once tuned ?

More linear power curve. If the cam changes to soon you can loose power and torque,if you can changes at 4500 and it needs to be at 5500 for example then you are giving up max power for 1000rpm right in the guts of your curve. Do a power run with the vvt off then do one with it on from start to rev limit and its easy to see where to switch at.

LINKS - Im currently running the Hi-Boost mode on my factory solenoid therefore constant 7psi... my car is fairly stock except for the split dump and 3" hi flow CAT and exhaust + K&N Pannel filter (165rw/kw) and at 4500 - 5000RPM i get a slight pop (at times) from the exhaust and a rush of power to redline! Its not a misfire for sure cause theres no hesitation and the coils + NGK plugs are only 6 months old.. Im definate its the NVCS kicking in via ECU and CAM gears... all i was hoping to do is get it kicking sooner to get more bottom end... i guess ill need an aftermarket ECU...

Do you guys think resetting my factory ECU would help after getting the exhaust or any other mod fitted?? any benifits?

Cheers

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
