Hi Guys,

I have a R32 GTS-t in the workshop at the moment, I was originally going to supply him with an AP PFC, however the one supplier I know that has one wants to sell it stupidly

expensive ($2300). I have converted a GTR RB26 PFC for him, I only just got it going, it seems to be working fine. Im going to tune it today, ill let you know how it goes. I can

definately say it is 100% possible.

paulr33, im looking into the R33 schematics at the moment for the VCT, if I have any info on it ill make sure I let you know.

Cheers

Rob

Rob,

You're a f**king legend.

Thank you so much for getting involved.

hi rob,

yeah it was nick, i spoke with him last night.

i would like to see the car running just to confirm a few things for my loom.

do you see any issues in me looking (and copying) the base tune date once you guys have done the base stuff?

i am interested in base injector, airflow ramps and stock maps. i can generate them myself if need be.

is he using gtr injectors or stock rb20 ones

there is no ETA. please be patient. my car gets fixed today so i can actuall test and try stuff.

i have the 26 FC at home and my R33. we have come across another potential issue with the 02 sensor setup

as the GTR doesnt run heater but the 32/33 GTST does so it may not work, that is there may be no 02 feedback

don't worry, I'm nudging him :P

I have a powerfc pro here for a GTR that I want in my car asap.

Cubes, Paul also send me your Loom comparison excel spreadsheet. Done well.

Paul, its got to work, because the AP engineering guys obviously worked it out. Maybe a AP engineering ECU as reference to see what they did?

no they grab the older style 25 PFC

it runs 2.3 i am pretty sure and uses N001 hand controller

they edit the internal version, change the map data, injector flip, change the afm ramp and inj settings and remove VCT

Hey paul,

I've been double checking a few things and the fuel pump flow control has stood out as being a problem.

First up how the fuel pump is controlled by the GTST's.

The GTST's essentially run a basic dropping resistor and relay (they call fpcm) that is activated by the ecu to earth the pump out and bypass the dropping resistor resulting in high voltage to the pump.

The R33 and R32 GTST ecu's have pinout 104 activated constantly which is why we loose the high/low function with a pfc in the gtst's.

The GTR's do away with the dropping resistor in favour of 2 ecu pinouts for the high/low control and a 'real' fpcm (fuel pump control module). Essentially the fpcm is a relay thats earthed and resistor thats earthed all in one. It receives a signal from the ecu via pinouts 104 or 106 and activates the associated circuit. One being the straight relay earth the other being the resistored earth.

So whats what?!?! :)

We really need to remove pinouts 104 and 106 and see what they are doing. I would assume as the fuel pump goes high one is off the other is on and as the fuel pump goes low its vice versa.

Which will cause problems with fuel pump control on both prime and running.

----

I think the answer is maybe one or both of the below.

1. Simply bridge ecu pin outs 104 and 106 so the gtst's relay (fpcm) is always active.

2. The fuel pump receives its voltage via a relay that is activated by the ignition switch and the ecu earthing out. So simply splice in to the fuel pumps voltage feed and using it as a trigger for a negatively earthed relay.

When the ignition key is turned the ecu earths its self out activating the new negatively earthed relay; as the fuel pump is now earthed it will run.

I would hope it doesn't cause problems with prime. I would assume not going by the wiring diagrams.

I've pulled the wiring diagrams out of the engine manuals; next time your on msn i'll send them on over to you to have a look.

thanks for the info, i am reluctant to try anything more at the risk of frying my car of the FC itself

i tried it last night, had a constant reboot cycle on the car and hand controller and the fuel pump kept restarting

created; what did u guys do for fuel pump control ?

i am no longer doing this project. i tried it last night and was faced with some possible big risks so im not prepared to continue.

i will sell my 26 FC and the loom adapter if anyone wants to continue or use it for other purposes.

the loom adapater is an inline adapter for Rb26 or Rb26 or Rb25 to Rb25

we have cut all of the other excess junk from it so it suits rb25, all of auto signals have been cut so its only manual loom

ecu is for sale here

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=169959

anyone interested in the loom?

it can be used for any type of inline patching or hacking etc

ive gone and cut all the auto and non related wires to suit rb26

paul using stock rb20 injectors atm...

Car is running fine atm no probs but will see with a few more days of driving, but so far so good.....

And thanks again Rob and Danny at CREATD.....legends :P

Hey Nick, hows the car running?

are you able to get good economy out of it?

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
