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 :(

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.

    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
