Hey

see thread here for background information http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/S1...Fc-t196648.html

Got a R34 GTT Power FC to plug into my series 1 automatic Rb25det Stagea (same ecu plug)

Is this actually R34 GTT Pfc?

PFCER34 010-0155 ECU

FCC2 NT 020-00584 HAND CONTROLLER

just want to check.

Im hoping it will wire up ok with Andys 51pin volt trick, I think the attessa should be ok

anyone experienced with wiring a Power FC with 4wd (with automatic, I doubt THAT?) ;)

Ive found a few differences between the R34 Skyline ECU pinouts and the stagea ecu pinout, nothing too "out there" by the looks

Im confident the couple of differences Ive found can be handled and rewired, if infact necessary.

I'll have help to install and test, but will leave it in the hands of an experienced electric circuit handyman to make it all work, then tune

auto electrician perhaps? or a south aussie sauer?

Also, please, is the R34 GTT Power FC pinouts exactly the same as the Skyline stock R34 GTT ecu pinouts?

I always thought the PFC was only made for manual skylines/stageas. And plugging it into an auto isn't going to be successful unless you do some wiring modifications.

I think SK had a PFC running on his stagea but he did have to modify something to make it work. It's not a plug and play affair.

Also wouldn't a R33 PFC be more suited to your car? I thought the S1 Stagea's didn't run a NEO RB25det....

there are Stagea's - both manual and converted manuals from autos, both series 1 and series 2, that run the PowerFC with very minor alteration

the stagea ecu plug is same as r34 NOT r33

stagea series 1 dont run the neo, but stagea series 1 and series 2 ecu is the same (plug for pinouts)

I have the Stagea stock ecu pinout diagram and the R34 Skyline stock ecu pinout diagram, wiring mods will be done

I expect that I may lose VVT, thats ok, can tune around it to a certain extent

I expect that eventually the auto will fail and require a rebuild. It is a fact that plenty of R33 Rb25dets AUTO run the powerfc successfully

I could do a alteration to the auto at MV Autos with a manual shift setup for the auto box.

you, SIR, are a legend

thank you

Now Im confident I have all the right info to get this to work

Ive identified the differences between the 2 pinouts, so a simple rewire cut n shut job can be done

I reckon a qualified auto electrician, with full insurance in case they fry the pfc, will be able to do the wireup for me

I dont know electronics and am not comfortable doing the wiring myself

That includes Andy's "secret squirrel trick" using a 10.3V zeneer diode between Pin51 and Ignition and a 400ohm resisitor between Pin51 and Earth

at this stage I wont be going to a mechanical auto shift setup for the gearbox, maybe later, maybe later

yeah the stagea's run the R34 plug

series 1 and 2

I guess my post was a silly question; my bad.

Went to Boostwerx today and they reckon, with the info I have, that they'll have it wired and tuned.. theres a guru auto sparkie floating around they know so they are confident of a positive outcome.

:ermm:

just gotta wait till end of Feb.

      Slight brake pedal stutter after new pads

      Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.

      Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.

      My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.

      Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
