Hey guys

Recently put on my hiflow r33 turbo

i have

power fc

AVCR

FMIC

Hiflow cat

3" exhaust

12 psi

Hiflow turbo ( plain bearing, 270thrust bearing)

I havent had the car tuned after install of hiflow, wasnt sure if i need to or not

I did have 205 tyres on at the time of the test and tune, but when i went down, it felt like each gear was maxing out. I was nearly in 5th gear at the end of the strip.

i changed the boost back to 10 i think it was fine, felt a bit slow, but it went right to 6000rpm, whateva my shift light was set at.

Will the power fc need to be tuned, for the hiflow? Letting more air in? need more fuel?

AFM maxing out?

I did a 14.2 was the best at 100.31mph 60ft 2.2269, Reaction was .552

With the help of little bit of wheel spin

Not sure whats doin

Any help is appreciated

I'm sorry I read this 3 times but I don't understand the problem.

when you say each gear was maxing out at 12psi, are you saying that you were going really fast?

or was it cutting out?

either way, if you now have a turbo that can ram more air in to your engine, OFCOURSE the ECu should be tuned to accomodate the right fuel and timing to go with it.

you don't mention any injectors or Fuel pressure regulator or fuel pump in your list of mods so I would suggest at least get a fuel pump and the regulator to make use of the new turbo.

I'm just not sure what it is you are trying to ask...

it feels like its cutting out,

i dont have a fuel regulator or fuel pump at the moment

but i have a walbro fuel pump that i will be putting on soon, maybe this weekend.

Everything is the same as when i had the stock turbo on, havent changed nothing.

So yeah looks like im goin to get it tuned, hopefully soonish

was the PFC tuned with the stock turbo?

at what boost?

what power did it make?

If I had to guess, I'd say maybe your AFM.

more air is comming in and the AFM is out of resolution and the engine is misfiring/cutting out as it is not tuned for that level of AIR FLOW.

but answer the questions above please..

cheers

pfc was tuned with the stock turbo at chiptorque

Made 201rwkw

at 12 psi

And pretty much just have put the hiflow on, and havent changed anything.

I have heard from matty spry, that will having a hiflow, i should be right with using the standard afm, as im not goin to be goin bigger turbo later on or cams etc. And that he can tune it too it , hopefully .

well think about it quickly.

stock turbo at 12psi was able to push enough air in to the engine to make 200rwkw.

the turbo now has been hi flowed.

basicaly as the name suggests it flows higher amounts of air.

so if the boost controller has not been touched, 12 psi on the new turbo actually flows MORE air.

and this has caused your cutout/missfire issue.

it will have to be tuned to supply right amount of fuel to go with the new amount of air.

I'd definitely chuck in the pump you have.

now.. I don't have an RB25 so I don't know first hand, the limit of the RB25 afm.

I'm sure others will.

Actually, if you take a quick look at the RB25 turbo/dyno thread ( http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=55845)

you can see what power people have and what mods.

if you can find what power people have before a Z32 AFM is required, you'll work out if you can use the new turbo to it's max potential with the RB25 AFM or not.

other than this, I'm pretty sure that without a FPR, your injectors are going to be maxing out soon.

oh.. get some fatter tyres and better that time man.. :D

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
