Hey guys, as we all know with performance upgrades comes dilemmas! My mechanic will be fitting the 550cc injectors, highflow turbo, nismo fuel pump and FMIC. However my tuner is 20min drive away and need to get the car to him to fit and tune the ECU.

Will my car fire up and be “drivable” for about 20kms with the factory ECU?

Regards,

Sarkis

Hi Sarkis,

I had fuel pump, FMIC and Highflow all running on stock ECU, i'm unsure of the injectors though as i installed PFC and injectors at the same time.

What aftermarket ECU have you got?

IF you got pfc then just program your injectors by using the hand controller and then drive to the tuner.. that's what i did.

Yea might just do that.. however the tuner wants $200 to fit the injectors

Im still tossing up between PFC (cant find them under $1200) or a Haltech (recommended by my tuner) he also tunes PFC but he cant get them anymore...

Cheers

I have never changed injectors before so i wouldn't know where to start... since ill be using a Nismo pump and injectors, if i cand get my hands on a PFC i can take my time and do it all at home and then adjust the injectors so i can drive it there... ill see how i go... cant find a PFC anywhere...

Cheers

my mate just bought a pfc from this site,but man was he lucky i was up late and spottered it... he did pay 1200 tho...

good luck finding 1

i got a brand new power fc in box with hand controller and warranty for rb25det if anyone wants to buy it...i just want wot i paid for it:)

Yea but the PFC is hard to come by these days... EMS or Haltech ECU comes with slightly more options as well as no need for an AFM...

Ill be visiting a few workshops in early Jan and see what they recommend...

I have the Injectors, Fuel Pump and FMIC sorted just need to decide on turbo and ECU... hopfully will see 260+rw/kw

Have a great New Years Eve guys... Keep Safe

Sarkis

No he didnt say 3hrs, he told be he could do it for $200 but would rather someone else to do it... he specilises in ECU installs and tune... He is no tool let me assure you... he has some of the most powerful cars coming off his dyno inc BU5TER

He knows his work very well and would highly recommend J.E.M (Adam)

Cheers

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
