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

    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
