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. :(

      Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.

      I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.

      From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.

      They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
