Ok so today i had my bin file from the CENTRAL 20 ECU looked at, and apparently it has no boost cut, and speed cut removed (knew that one) and 6900 rpm limit.

However what is happening, at 15 psi, the car feels like it is hitting a brick wall, and jolting, and then above 3500rpm takes of fine, no issues what so ever.

Below 12 psi, the car feels fine, a little retard posible but otherwise ok.

This ecu pulle 217 rwkw on my current setup, but over the past 4 months the car just has not felt right. I have done heaps of test for stuffed sensors and consults ect. and nothing there. Car usesd about one tak per 300 km in town.

The car developed a cold start issue, where as it started on 3 cylinders, cleared it throat, and then all 6 fire up. I have checked everything as per this post.

Can somone tell me what i might need to look for.

I will get the car tested soon, but need some ideas in the mean time.

HELP ME, AGAIN. LOL>

i had this issue when i tried a remap

i had a series 2 R33 and i got a s1 remap ecu and it ran like bozz

it was something about the MEC chip being the wrong one

sorry i cant be of much help. it was from a guy on the forums, tashi i think his name was

paul, wog's car's been working all this time. it's only now.

It sounds like it could be a spark issue like coilpacks or sparkies. I know you got splitos, but have you got new sparkies? what gap?

I remember reading a thread where people had problems with highboost and splitos. could be that?

plugs are relatively new, and gap is 1mm, i have had 0.8mm but made no differance, it is being a dog at low rpm not high, humm who knows, but it is certainly strating to piss me off.

oh yeah sorry Paul, the ecu has been in for ages and ran great, only last 4 months being crap.

Ok so i should have clarified eaven further.

The computer has been on the car for ages, and running with the SAFC II to bring the power up eaven more. The ECU is a generic one that is put out with Central 20 cars, so it uses all stock componenst and sensors, with new maps and so forht,

The car made in the current form, with Central 20 ecu and the SAFC II as per my sig 217 rwKw.

The car ran fine for agen but one hot day something went funcy, and every since it is hard to start cold, and the car feels the way it does.

The car WAS tuned in teh car with an SAFC II on a dyno, with perfect AFR's

The car was running fine for ages, say 6 months, only a recent thing.

Nothing has changes in the car mod wise.

DOES that clarify anything?

ok so i gapped the car down to .6mm gap and DAM it goes EAVEN WORSE. I mean below 4000rpm it's like a tracktor, the thing missfires and shit, compleat shit, and then bag wheel spin. I downloaded the rom and yeah i have no airflow limit, so the ecy should be fine.

What can couse missfire/splutering at low rpm.

This suxxxxxx.

Is it possible an airflow meter or a cam angle sensor.

Could it be a knock sensor?

HELP ME PLEASE

It'd say its probably the AFM, give it a decent clean and hopefully you'll see some improvement.

Otherwise the knock sensor could be faulty and making it run on the lower octane maps. Do you have a consult cable to check?

The plugs are 6's and are spot on to look at.

Yeah got consults, pickes up nothing. My voltage on the AFM at 750 rpm is 1.2V i think that is OK.

I did a log of the car this morning and noticed that as soon as it does this and goes funny, the oxygen sensor drops to zero and then bounces back then back to zero,

WHAT THE????

Probably just because its running so rich when it misses, if its faulty it shouldn't cause problems like that anyway. Nothing to lose, unplug it and see how you go for a day. It will run richer and use a lot more fuel at idle/cruise though.

have you checked your silicon hoses on your intercooler for small cracks or leaks?

i had this and the car flat spotted high in the rev range.

go around while the car is on and spray some detergent onto your silicon hoses and see if it bubbles up anywhere.

    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
    • It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.
    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
