Hi guys, sorry my first post here is a question :thumbsup: I will try to contribute where i can :D

I'm over in the UK, and have a 93 R33 GTST.

The car had the original SAFC with 5 dials when I first got her 10 months ago, and since then I've changed a few things, and today I installed a SAFC II.

It powers up fine, and seems to be monitoring correctly, but im a bit confused by sensor and car-type settings...

I have gone into the etc. menu as instructed, selected Hardwire sensor type, but it then wants to know this:

What do i need to set these to?

I then go to choose the car type, 6 cylinders, fine, but it also wants to know this: (right hand side)

lastly, I have fired up the car, and it idles slightly roughly, and if i push the revs a little it gets to approx 2600 rpm then seems to fuel cut? thats the only way i can describe it. Very similar to the effect my Bee-R rev limiter.

Any help appreciated here, if I dont sort it today I will wire my old SAFC back in :)

have u ZERO'd the maps?

did u look at the Apexi web site...the SAFC manual I have for mine tells u everything u need ot know and even how to setup some basic settings...

I've set the sensor type to 4, hope thats right. I've set the throttle sensor type to ** (none) for now.

I'm still having the rpm cut out problem.

Could this be linked to the knock sensors.. I havnt connected them yet, but the safc is giving a reading over 300. Is this because I have connected both grounds?

There is a DIY on how to install and setup the basics in the DIY section. If not PM predator he will help you out.

4-4 is what I think I have mine set at and second screen appears to be right, 6cylinder and throttle position up. If I had my car here id go out and check my settings for you as mine hasnt been tuned as yet.

Cheers

Chris

      r34's love to squeal

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
