Ordered a new TPS today, no good news so far about my dodgy Power FC, so hopefully that might help

Dont know what to do with this Power FC really, I'd be really pissed if I bought another one and it did the same thing.

You really need to come and see me, I'll hook my gear up and have a look for you. I owe you a favour.

Its over in Perth at DMS Electrics (FC-Hako) with them looking at it. But so far They seem to think its something to do with the actual program and not an 'issue'

I'm not sure what other programs you might have that will go any further into the Power FC? I have FC-Pro and have logs of what it is doing, and the only thing that is different between my 2 power FC's is the ignition timing. There is a small spike in TPS voltage at the point where timing goes from 10 degrees retarded to normal IGN timing, but its 5mV.

I think they are going to send me over there V5.11 Power FC to see if I have any luck with it. If it works fine then I think they were willing to do a swap

I'm not to sure apart from that, do you have any other programs for the Power FC? I dont have it on me at the moment however

I just use to FC-Datalogit software.

If its not the program, I can actually have a look if it is something else. I've lost count on how many Powerfcs I've tuned. Ran into and fixed all sorts of problems. Another brain always helps in trouble shooting.

I can't really mack much of that out because I can't see the colours well. But anyway, if you need another brain, let me know and I will organise a time to catch up.

On another note, Benny, you might like this:

has just posted a new topic entitled "Nissan 200Sx - 4X4 - Rb30Det." in forum "RB30 conversions".

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi all.

Anybody interested in following my build?

I have an old S13, converted to RB30DET, and currently is being converted to 4x4 using different nissan parts, and custom work. Parts used comes from R32/R33/Z32.

All work is done in my parents garage with the car on jacks.

(

Yeah it didn't quite convert real well. At the moment they are telling me to check my AFM as the engine load looks a little erratic. Haven't had time to compare my logs to theirs fully but will play with it when I get the unit back

Sooooo block and girdle have to go to get the crank tunnel looked at now. It's looking up on Number 2 main. Not real happy, This engine is turning into a pain in the ass. Hopefully its not going to cost much if it has to be tunnel bored.

Yeah lol, hey Benny i replied to your message on FB but can u reply on here? I can't use my data on my phone anymore i've gone over my allowance thingy and don't want to pay the fee lol.

Need to know what winch you want, if you want tyres with the rims and what your contact number is so i can get the boys next door to call you.

cheers

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
