hi guys,

i have read the PFC faq.. for all RB26 owners.. wondering if you have set the O2 sensor reg. (on or off).. this is below the O2 feedback setting which i have also turned on.. initially it was off and after 30 mins of ecu learning.. it sounded like wrx with its zorst note.. on a side note, car is currently leaking oil from driver side somewhere so further testing on hold atm.. any pointers on where to look.. check oil filter and no sign of oil there.. perhaps a tear in one of the pipes on that side that leaks under load..

cheers

nesh

it should be on, and is on by default

it enables 02 feedback, which is fuel economy correction/adjustment on light cruise

the ecu will look at the stock 02 sensor sensor on light cruise and use that information to save fuel

hey paul, thanks for the reply.. wen i resetted the pfc initially, O2 feedback sensor was ON, however there was another setting below it, O2 sensor reg which i assume is a regulator etc.. this was OFF by default and i was wondering if that could be the cause of my weird zorst tone.. car doesnt hunt on idle but clearly lacks power.. do u think i need to reset the ecu again and have the O2 sensor reg. turned ON and then have the car re-learn over 30mins? sensor status on the hand controller shows all clear and working..

ah you are correct wise one

the BNR32/BNR33 powerfc has

02 feedback

and

02 reg on/off

the 02 reg on/off translates to

"Rides in BNR32 as for the customer who < Ant > Please set."

the only thing i can think of that would be related would be the fact the bnr32 uses titania 02 sensors, whereas the bnr33 does not

so it guess its some sort of extra mode to make the bnr32 units work corerctly, as bnr32 and bnr33 have same powerfc but different 02 sensor types

umm i guess only way to find out is to turn it ON and see if it makes a difference.. was reading PFC hand controller manual for RX7 and instructions for resetting of PFC via controller said selecting YES followed by Ignition switch OFF -> ON.. i didnt do the final step wen resetting my ecu as i was following ur guide and i think it didnt list it.. i hope i wasn't running the car with the previous map still on it as it was tuned for 370kw+..

i think you will find that the 02 feedback is mainly for emissions ;)

if you turn it on you get worse fuel economy and the car runs around 13.2 - 13.8 a/f ratio.

i even tested this theory on the RTA epa test and you can see it only changes the emissions and makes it run richer.

i have mine turned off at all times but had it on when i passed the emissions test :O

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
