Rb26 Pfc Working On Rb20/rb25

[sl33py]

What exactly does the missing VCT mean if you have stock cams? I know it doesn't affect those with aftermarket cams.

[paulr33]

it means it will never engage VCT

it could leave the car with a sluggish flat feeling

i will have to test it out fully before i can comment

[sl33py]

Damn, that sounds bad

Paul, I want a PowerFc PRO for my R33 series 2.

Can you make it happen?

the only hope would be an rb26 powerfc pro with the same loom

let me test the plain vanilla rb26 powerfc first

[paulr33]

out of curiosity, what feature do you want ? you can get the gizmo launch interface to do spark cut launch control

I'm still following this thread with much anticipation

[Tebie]

im keen for a RB20 one...

[paulr33]

nengun have completed my order and it should have ems tracking in a day or so

theres about a 1 month delay on orders from apexi

so if want a new PFC be prepared to wait a month

[paulr33]

my fc is in melbourne customs, so shouldnt be long

Still watching and waiting.

hi,

given a recent influx of information i see very little need for this to continue.

please read http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=167846 in detail

it covers that 25t PFCS are still available, just in low volume which means all the factory stuff works, no need for loom and VCT works

it has a higher price tag sure but its not too bad. my 26FC & loom & changes was going to be near 1250 anyway at pure cost and parts

i will think about rb20 however and cubes testing this

[paulr33]

fc arrived today

nice shiny new

PFC GTR33L is the model no#

will be sure to open it up to get some board pics and start testing soon

i am busy this weekend but maybe during the week

[vitz_n1]

rb20 are still not available through ap engineering though??

stick with it!! still quite a bit of interest for rb20 items. and there will be a few after the rb25 version i would imagine, as it appears this would be a cheaper option.

stick with the rb20 pfc Paul. Still plenty of people who want it.

[paulr33]

i dont have an rb20 here so i can either try and find a donor car

or we can wait for cubes to try it when he gets his 26 FC

pm sent paul

[paulr33]

no progress yet, my 33 has a flat battery as im not driving it

so i cant test if the 26 fc boots up on the 25 without any changes (dang)

will get car sorted in the next day or so and begin testing

got some pics of the latest 26 FC

have noticed some changes when i opened it up

theyve gone for a newer style 78F4 which is tiny compared to the older one and its not in a normal cpu socket, its directly on the board

also some other minor changes on the board and much newer reversion FC 21 A0 is the board version

will be interesting to see what version hand controller and firmware it has.

the packaging looks updated a little and better than what i recall my 25 being

stock ecu vs 26 fc and loom adapter

loom adapter close up

long shot of loom connected up

26 fc serial # and model #

main board long view

the smaller cpu is on the right half way down

you can also see the plug in socket (white) about half way down on the board

assuming some sort of internal flash upgrade / change port for apexi staff

main board version #

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
