Ah so they managed to make the exhaust work? So proud of my boys :D

I heard there can be issues with PFC + Stagea but not sure what exactly, maybe thats why wiring was sent. Anyway I will inform him that you must have it purrrfect for D Day to avoid being shamed by a safety car.

Ciao!

Hahaha, a "Safety Car" like this one, right Duncan?

I'm waiting to see how you go with Duncan's R34 PFC so I can get mine installed too. I hope it turns out to be as easy as deciphering a few small issues with different triggers being on certain pins compared to the R33 PFC.

I've decided I'll show up for this :P. Put it on a dyno in October so I'm interested to see how different it could be. Hopefully I'll still get around the 145rwkWs I got then :P. I'm told its not bad for complete stock, except for my fully sick rims which add 500kWs to the fuel pump :laugh:

how either of you spoken with Ando??? he got his powerfc up and running without any problems at all.

oh and i'm having powerfc problems too, i wouldn't mind some help from the boys at Hills too! I've tried everywhere, no one can help me :laugh:

I think its just a stagea problem Liz there is some wierd wiring in the early ones.

Mark has a couple of good tools to work with PFCs, the offical apexi stuff, datalogit etc and a dyno of course. If he can't sort it out give up :)

There's a few things to overcome with the Stageas, Liz:

  • We're trying to use R34 PFC's on s2 R33 engines, Liz, which is where one of the issues is.
  • The s1 Stagea ECU, even though it *probably and most likely* runs an R33 program, has an R34 plug, which is problem two.
  • There seems to be a few different parameters run on different pins between R33 and R34.
  • The Stageas have AWD, and in that regard they're the only RB25-engined Nissans to use a turbo motor and AWD together (whether it's the R33 or R34 Neo).
  • Even the s2 Stagea, with the R34's Neo motor, needs mods to the PFC wiring to sort out issues with traction control and the engine light staying on.

That list is the stuff that I'm aware of so far, so who knows what else will pop up.

It HAS been done (I think Millenium Motorsport in Qld were amongst the first in Australia, but they were and maybe still are unwilling to share the information), so there's no reason why Duncan and I won't eventually be able to have s1 Stageas with the R34 PFC - it's just a matter of time and having all the correct information together to make it all happen.

Back on topic, I'm still keen for a run on the dyno, even with the standard ECU still in my car.

you can count me in *if i remember that its on* memory is pretty bad these days... im gettin old ya see hahahaha last time i put her on the dyno it made 165.5 @ the wheels not bad for a stocker with only a front mount on her.......

I wasn't arguing btw.. i was just interested to know.

I'm going to give them a call.. if they can work out that, I'm sure they can help me

Yeah, I know that! :banana: I just figured I'd let you know what the deal was. I wish it was a lot easier, that's for sure!

I agree, if they can work that out (and here's hoping - fingers crossed) then yours shouldn't be a problem either.

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By MBS206 · Posted

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
