Hey I am currently getting my R32 tuned and currently running into some problems tuning.

Its a GTST rb20det. Running bigger injectors fuel pump turbo etc with a manual RB25 box and Power FC Pro.

Car will run fine in gear but won't rev while it's in neutral.

PFC settings have been checked and appear to be fine.

Any one have any ideas why it would be running fine in gear but not in neutral?

Hey just some more information... its a really weird problem....

What is happening is when the rear wheels are turning the car is operating fine and it will rev in neutral. such as like after putting it in gear on the dyno then letting it slow down(rear wheels still turning) it will rev okay...

As soon as the rear wheels stop however it won't rev in neutral

Is it possible that this has something to do with launch control on the pfc pro?

*EDIT

He thinks it may be he launch control on the PRO as it only happens when the wheels are not moving. Does anyone know how to access this through the hand controller as he says he cant find the option in there. He has tuned plenty of normal PFC's but none with the pro.

what was actually wrong with the launch control settting?

was it lower than idle or something ?

the launch control RPM setting under SETTING is a ceiling RPM limit.

it should only really affect it if you hold the throttle down. ie: while the speed = 0km the rev limit is that alternate setting, i gues it would only be a problem of its too low, or under the idle limit.

Will look when the car comes back but as the link indicates I believe LC isn't ID'd as such on the controller. Tuner has worked with plenty of PFCs before but not a PFC Pro so wasn't sure how to set it. I believe that LC was set really low, which was why we were getting problems.

yep, that's the problem. the stationary rev limit is not always instantly apparent. glad i could help but when you said PFC pro, and wont rev in neutral (ie 0 speed) i knew instantly what it was. i will bill you later for problem diagnosis. :(

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

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

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
