Last time I looked they did...did a really good job of binding up on the dipper at Bathurst and spearing them off in to the kitty litter

Sports cars are a nice handling over all package.....the viper is a large powerful engine attached to a chassis built manily around 2 bits of railway track

LOL RAILS...

did u see the lotus come over the peak too fast hit the strip and bounced off a wall and into the service road..??? 900kg 1.8L toyota engine ftw...the donut king cup thingo..

was a good race.. EVOS wer crazy.. and did u see the FD3S behind everything..?

FD3S are a sports car.. good overall package.. but they are kinda gutless.. like the RX8 bahaha... waste of engineering.

The power fc needs to be modified to work on an auto car, you CANT run a power fc out of the box on an auto car. Yes it will work, no it won’t work right.

SydneyKid on these forums made a post in the tech sections explaining what needs to be changed to work, he runs one on his auto Stagea

Power fc's dont run on auto cars...

This is true. I think his biggest problem will be with the Power FC.

My advice consist's of the following, seeing i owned a 4 door r33 auto at one stage.

1) Post in the WTB section of the SAU forums and let people know you need an R33 Series 2, Auto ECU.

2) Disconnect car battery and remove the Power FC ECU and hand controller (if it has one) and replace with your second hand r33 S2 Auto ECU.

3) If you already have a boost controller, i'd piss it off pretty quick and reconnect your boost lines into the stock boost solenoid to ensure either of the two items above arent causing the problem.

4) If the problem is still there and your running a stock ecu and boost solenoid, i would then locate another wastegate actuator and replace your current one. If your actuator is allowing your gate to open quickly, your turbo will spool around 8-12psi in an instant shot and give you a massive amount of boost spike.

However, you mentioned you had issues at 5,500rpm (Wastegate not opening soon enough), and now it spools to early (Power FC problem, Wastegate opening to early...Way to early...)

I'd seriously give the above a fair go.

Good luck. :rofl:

Welcome to the forum.

You said that you had a loose wastegate? how did you fix it? I'd be definitly pulling the power fc out like the others said as they obvously not suited for autos .If you cant pull the fc out for now take a few degrees out of the timing ( get one of your mechanics to do it, thats if you are desperate so it doesnt ping might, make the car not responsive). What fuel have you been putting into it ?Hopefully nothing under bp ultimate.I wouldnt be running any boost controller until your problem is fixed so get that wastgate sorted out or your chances of engine damage will be up there.

Good luck

      Engine Issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Resizing injectors in Nistune can be done a couple of ways, and there are a couple of ways that you can make a mess of it. The tuner needs to be really aware of the effects of whichever approach he uses (either K, or TIM). They are both easy enough to "get the injector size right" to run the engine. But little details like old start enrichment and hot start are affected differently, depending on which boxes you check.

      Engine Issue

      Pretty safe to say almost everyone that has tuned their own car has experienced this issue. The difference being that we have our laptop in the car and when it happens, it's literally 10 seconds of tuning to sort it.  Would you be happy to plug in your laptop and sort this yourself? It is a very simple process and there is no risk of harming your engine (if you are worried about that).

      Yeah thats the next step now, either they wil or i will take out for a drive to work and go straight their after work and see is we get the same issues 🤞  thought i try my luck here too, never know someone else might have had the same issue but thanks for the reply

      Basically your tuner needs to drive it for the 30 min (or whatever) to create the same conditions then check the ECU settings and sensors at that time. They may not be excited to because that takes them 30 min rather than just opening the bonnet and seeing the problem straight away.... Hot start is generally not as tricky as cold start, but there would be a table for fuel enrichment vs coolant temp as a starting point

      Yeah, they all cant say anything for sure as everything is working fine . Said unable to find an issue untill it stops again. Could mist likely be CAS wiring or IAS valve issue but again not 100%
