It appears that the Wolf actually has a lot more features than the pfc.

Here's a quick run down on the features of Wolf v4 plug in for the R33/R32.

Map/Maf Use.

Closed Loop.

Air temp - Fuel/Ign/Boost compensation

Engine - Fuel/Ign/Boost compensation

Boost can be set per 500rpm to what ever value you like, it can also be trimmed to according to tps/air temp, engine temp.

Rotational Idle can be setup by Steve from SST.

Map Switching

Its a good ecu.

Check out the couple of threads that compare the PowerFC to the Wolf3D.

cool about time there was another good cheap plugin ecu. The older wolfs were a little shit, but i've heard the v4's are good. Dunno how they go with fuel economy, heard the microtech uses more, and can't remember if i've heard the same about the newer wolf's

i plugged my PFC in.

BANG. New car.

Wheel spinnage.

awesome power increase.

and after the tune ?? well the tune got me 285bhp

I so love the drivability of the PFC and the hand controller graph views are just totally awesome.

Id suggest the PFC to anyone.

Microtech uses more fuel because it doesn't have closed loop.

i.e as GTST VSpec told me that in closed loop mode it runs up to around 18:1 where as the best you can get from a non closed loop car is what ever the base map is which won't be 18:1.. :D

The dipstick assembly is just an iterference fit in the block hole. If you genty twist it you can lossen it and carefully keep turning back and forth until it comes out. Alternatively you could use the correct size drift and tap it out of the block from below.

OK so how do i get the Crank timing pulley off then. NOT the Crank pulley, the one behind them, in front of the oil pump which the timing belt goes around. Does it come off with the oil pump, cos it seems that the pump is free from the block, but the timing pulley is stopping it and i dunno how to get that off.

Your help is appreciated.

same way you got the oil pump off... tap it off with a hammer. You'll need to take the little key out (the little metal bit that stops the gear spinning on the crank shaft). But have some wood between the hammer and the crank gear cos you don't want to damage the teeth.

My timing gear was seized on the crank as well, and i got a local engine builder to remove it for me, they just drilled small holes in the timing gear from the front, extending from the center of the gear out to the edge, and then just used a cold chisel to create a radial split in the gear, and off it came. obviously a new gear was required.

Have any of you bolted the RB26DETT head on the RB30E?

Im about to do that, I was just wondering if anyone knew the difference in compression ratio?

If the RB30E/RB25DE is 8.3:1, what is the RB30E/RB26DETT?

Apart from tapping the holes in the block is there anything alse that needs doing?

    • Well, I'm tired. I'm tired because about 4PM yesterday, before today's appointment someone immediately bought my bumper. They couldn't get it any other day as they're on the way back to NSW. So I had to do that big GTR conversion I had been planning. Unfortunately, the information on SAU about what you need and how this is done is incomplete. So what should be a simple bolt on affair, yeah, it's not. Did you know if you use all GTR items the bonnet won't close? This little manuever sent me into about 1am the night before trying to dodge a way to get it closed. I will have to revisit this in the next few days  - or maybe not, I may let a body shop figure it out. It all needs to come up and my motivation to pull the bumper off is low. It also seems to hit things in the bay where the GTT bonnet didn't. Yes I used 100% new OEM GTR items. Today, I had the joy of driving to the dyno looking like this: Given I had roughed in the fuel and given sensible but pretty conservative timing, I didn't really bet on having the car drive out any real difference than when it drove in. Sadly due to a miscommunication and laptop fun and games (and almost bricking the dongle, prayers and firmware updates indeed), I ended up using HP Tuner credits to licence the car that was already licenced. So in the end my laptop was used. It turns out my butt dyno is still well calibrated after all this time. The 325kw was on 74% Ethanol, the 313kw line was on 98. The other line is the 'before' line which was 281kw. While the numbers are pretty low, they're pretty in line with what you'd expect. Even if US dynos bump the whole result up about 50KW, gaining 10-15% is similar gains.  The curve of the cam is pretty much spot on with what was discussed as well. All this said, it still feels bad to not see the number you secretly want to see. Even if the car drove great beforehand, and I knew pretty confidently the car would drive out much the same way it drove in due to the nature of a wellish dialled in LS1 not gaining much if anything at all from being tuned from where it was. As expected, the car isn't particularly sensitive to running it at anywhere between 12.0 and 13.0 - And the initial timing at 20deg and 12.0 made 308KW. So 3 degrees of timing, and leaning it out to 12.7 for 5kw, anything above stopped giving any benefit until E85 (which has an additional 2 deg as before). Car itself behaved entirely fine. I found out that 100C = 1.15V! IAT at about 7pm was 19C. I might mess with the bonnet mounting.. but given the REO NEEDS TO BE CHOPPED TO FIT A GTR BAR this is possibly something I may leave gathering (more) dust until it returns to paint jail.
    • It sounds farrrrrrr too cold at your place Duncan... Here I was thinking our 10 degrees overnight is getting cold...
    • oh yeah, reminded this morning....bin lids frozen shut too
    • In my case not, because of total reno. But yeah.
    • Did you use an electronic speedo drive? Does you speedometer read all the way to 180km?
