nope kutsie a local tunner does all my work.

AND nope nothing changed appart from this issue, which will take you 2 days to read as it has been an ongoing issue for the past 5 months.

Far out man. I'm not reading all that :w00t: I've heard too much about it already.

In your remapped ecu, can your consult read all vitals and logging and stuff that a PFC could? Log Errors, dead sensors and stuff?

i told you it would take 2 days to read. LOL.

yeah i have nissan datascan, and no errors what so ever. The car appears to be opperating normally with no issues according to the computer.

Go figure.

I would just like to take this moment to brag and say i got just under 500k's to my last tank :woot:

but i also ran out of fuel and had to fill up a jerry can... it was also 5th gear boring driving for most of it :w00t:

17mm Hg, my 33 idles at 20 - 21 mm Hg, and so do a shit load others I've seen...

Sounds like you have a vacuum leak somewhere personally.

Also, ditch all the little tuneable things, and get one big tuneable thing.

As much as I'm not a fan of the PFC, you should get one.

You should use one device to control one element, at the moment you're using 2 devices to control one element. Not smart. They tangle each other up.

That and you may have lost your map in the SAFC

As much as I'm not a fan of the PFC, you should get one. - That's because you can't tune them properly :(

You should use one device to control one element, at the moment you're using 2 devices to control one element. Not smart. They tangle each other up.

That and you may have lost your map in the SAFC - SAFC's are shit to tune.. they are very rough.. you can never get those flat spots out of them.

ever since i have had my car it has ideled at 17mm of HG, and i have tested every part of the car and found no leaks at all.

The compression is 150 psi across the board and 2.5 psi leakdown results, so motor appears healthy.

I have also replaced the PCV and so forht.

Map still in SAFC checked that, plus the safc is not doing much as teh map on the chip was preatty right on.

Oh did i forget to mention Tune ?

I suppose you should just run it on the dyno with the wideband in the exhaust to tell you what you already know....that its rich. Once thats established, retune to the correct AFR's across the map. So yeah, as Guilt-Toy says, Tune " " " " ".

Maybe an FC is worth your while...? If your not happy with it, then sell the FC(they go for a hefty price) and plug the remapped stocker in again.

It seems your running out of options. You've done and replaced just about all the known possible physical causes, If its not that, then maybe the ECU is not functioning the way it used to anymore. How many degrees of timing is it running?

Well PFC are esentially what i have but the chip is a hell of a lot more expensive, my chips cost $5 ea and tune time,

who cares if the chips cost 20c. you said yourself no-one on your island tunes them so it's not much good to you is it? i mean you are using a cheap signal bender to run your car and wondering why you have bad economy. I would say there is two reasons for the poor economy.

1. driving condition/driving style

2. tuning

you don't have to buy a power FC if you don't want it, but it will be doing a much better job that what you have now even right out if it's box.

had an oxygen sensor on the dump pipe replaced in mine which added 50km per tank. the car was running rich all the time. when you look at it via Consult and rev it, it suppose to go 'rich, lean, rich, lean' apparently

good luck :thumbsup:

OK OK OK

So i sprayed 2 full brake cleaning cans all over the hoses, connectors all over the engine, anywhere where air could leak, and i do mean everywhere.

AND nothing, no leaks that i could find at all, and the vacuum is still 17-18mm HG no more. Unless the guage is dogie, also i amm pulling it form the hose that goes to the charcoal canister, may need to re rout it.

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
