Hi All,

I have had this upgrade in mind for ages (R34 GTT manual). I have a few questions. I'm getting the Exedy Hyper single clutch installed next week by mate (who is also a honda mechanic) so thats sweet. I have the following items to install.

Clutch (new flywheel bolts, release bearing)

Apexi powerFc & controller

HKS 3037proS (have started making the custom down pipe)(also have some air intake mods to make)

z32 AFM and brand new plug

Sard 650cc's

blitz boost controller

Cambelt

general belts

and other bits and pieces. (need to get oil/water lines for the turbo - any suggetions)

_ already have exhaust, fuel pump and sard fuel reg.

Can I install the powerFc and complete the start up procedure on the same day as I remove the original turbo? I want the shop to do the rest. Can I install the powerFc then install the turbo/custom pipe and then start the car ? or install not start then tow to shop ? or install and drive? Any help welcomed ! I have read the project32 tutorial for some hinds. :D:D

Your questions are a little hard to understand.

So you want to install the power fc and drive to the workshop to install all your parts, yes?

The power fc has a base map you can drive around on, but no boosting it as it wouldn't be tuned.

Regardless of what you do the fc will have to be tuned to your mods after they have been installed.

Hmmm if you keep standard injectors in there you should be able to drive it completely off boost to the workshop if its not too far on the standard FC map... just make sure you don't give it stick because everythin will be out of wack with that sized turbo on there!

it wont matter which order you install everything, as the power fc will be on the base map which wont change at all till you get it tuned

if you read up on how to set it up for new injectors in paul's faq, you may consider doing them too.

or plan B

forget about installing the pfc

install the turbo and dump pipe, then drive to the tuners on the standard ecu.

installing the pfc takes less then 3 minutes, and the tuner will need to reinitiate the idle learn once the injectors and afm are changed anyway, so let him put it in once everything is done.

install everything.. plug in pfc, plug in the figures for the the injectors and z32 afm... and drive to the workshop

i was driving around for a few weeks with base powerfc map with 740cc injectors, z32 afm and hks gt2835 pros. untill i could get it tune, just drive it normal and everything will be fine

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
