Hi guys need to advice please.

I got a SAFC in my car and i did a very silly thing. I just want to know the perofrmance difference between tuned SAFC and factory setting .(When i bought the car it already came with the SAFC with tuned setting)

So i press "initialize", then eveything should be back to normal/factroy setting right....then turning the ignition off & on again.

However, the TCS light and Slip light come on all the way when my car was ideling.

Then i enter the tuned data setting into the SAFC again. guess what happan? I was unable to start the car, it was started like 1 sec and then off. and the engine light was on all the way.

I wonder what's going on? Any idea guys?

Now I'm scare to drive out now as the TCS and slip light on all the way. I wonder how could the SAFC deal with the TCS?

By the way do you suspose to enter the data while the car is ideling?

cheers

steve

Ummm doesnt that mean you cleared the tune that was on there? and your now gonna have to get it retuned?

Now the SAFC setting is back to the factory setting. And i don't want to retuned it as i already got the tuned data on my car.

The problem is even i enter the tuned data into the SAFC, there still have problem..... the engine light will pop up.

And if i use the factory setting, the TCS light and Slip light will pop up.

So i really don't know what to do ay.

By the way how long it's going to take to uninstall the whole SAFC by the garage?

cheers

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!

      http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.

      Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?

      Intro/R33 owner

      By f00stx · Posted

      Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).

      Second time Skyline owner (R33 GTS-T and now a V36 370GT)

      Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
