hay every one,

2 quick quistion is it true if you get a aftermarket computer,pfc/heltec/motec/ems/ect,ect,ectin the r34

do you loose the function with the :Traction Control

I ask cos i got a new ecu put in,then he told that i will loose this function

an also the engin light,the tcs,an the slip lights in the dash permanently stays on

is this right or have i been screwed an he has'nt done it right

also now it takes about 4-7 sec to even start,

were as before it turnd over straight away.an when it does start the frist three sec it sound like its going to stall

after that it goes to 1500 revs until it warms up then drops to 900 revs

does it sound like he has'nt tuned if properly

thanks

did you get a new ecu or just a chip? I got a chip & tune done in my R34, and NOT a problem in the world with TCS or start up. take it to get looked at by a new workshop and a new tune. may make ur car run better & they may find the reason why ur TCS isen't working. and the slip light woulod be shitting me off if it stayed on.

"IF" the ecu has stuffed with the TCS and wont work again, get some wire snips and cut the wire to the Slip light asap. haha

Where'd you get yours chipped if I may ask?

Sounds like a few minor issues. I doubt TCS will work as the stinger doesnt appear to support it. You may have idle issues.

Why dont you ask the shop why it doesnt start up as fast as before and why the lights are always on? If you did then what did they say?

you have to check if the ECU has Plug N play base map on it. If you use chip in your stock ECU or aftermarket with plug N play such as PFC, then the should work fine...

My guess is your car is tuned with ECU which does not have a base map, the ignition delay is caused by poor cold start tune. It is easier to tune while engine is hot and running however cold start is tricky, as by the time the tuner got the approximately right tuning, the engine would have been warm. Then to wait for the car to cool down again takes 2-3 hours, which I highly doupt the tuner will put the car back on the dyno.

This is also consistent with your idling problem, sometimes if the tune is not done properly the car will actually stalls on its own, you got to give it a bit of fuel... you won't have this problem once engine is warm no?

Hmmmmmm, sounds just like the problem I had when I had a Microtech installed. No AFM causes heaps of things to not function as they should. Changed to a PFC with a Z32 AFM and bingo all is good again. Does yours still have the AFM?

it may be that the TCS/ABS computer required signals from the ECU , such as TPS . This is similar to how the auto works .

This means those signals must be replicated by the ecu (which the r34 pfc would do) or you may be able to bridge the sensor outputs required for TCS . this is often how other ecus such as motecs and autronics are installed to work with tricky features like traction control , automatic gearboxes , stability control etc

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
