as soon as i read it (with no knowledge of the pfc) i would say vacuum leak somewhere

check all intake hoses to make sure they're connected and tight

a constant hunt for idle suggests that air is getting into the plenum not via the throttle body and so the idle goes up - the idle air controller then stops airflow - but the idle goes down - and then it increases it, but air is leaking in still, so it goes down

meh...but you say it happened after you put the pfc in???

I dont think its vacuum leak cause this happens to my car too with the power fc in. But right now its all good as i put the standard ecu back in cause low in funds to get Power FC tuned. Paul recommended to get the power fc tuned or use higher octane fuel.

when i put my pfc in and before it was tuned i was cruising around with z32 and fuel pump and idle was up and down then after tuning it was much better just a little bit up and down so i tried cleaning the aac valve and that sorted it out so i would give that a try.

used this as a guide:

make sure you get a new gasket before you take everything apart or you'll be stuck and also i took it back to tuner after doing this so he could get idle right with pfc and manual reset and it was all good after that.

Mine also does the same after install of PFC. I did mention it to hyper drive since they did the install and tuning, they said no probs we will check it out when its in next. Well car goes in on the 12 Dec so i will post back what we found the problem to be.

He did mention that perhaps when we change to the Z32 AFM it will dissapear or perhaps the new piping they made up to the AFM could be a tab too close to the turbo could also cause it.

Like most things can be this or that so i wait on the result next week when i get car back.

But it looks like a common fault with PFC i guess since a few of us have encounted the same problem after install.

Cheers.

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
