hey guys was wondering if anyone south of the river has datalogit for sale or they could borrow out.. or even lend a hand at getting to the bottom of a random knock at a few points of my power fc tuning map ... i would prefer to get to the bottom of the knock by the professionals since im not entirely sure its a tuning issue since ive had it knock a few times with the standard ecu in at around 12 psi on a hot day, but after getting messed around multiple times by x speed n cypher, kind of getting to the point where i cant be bothered with them any more and would like to give the car a run with the datalogit n possibly a wideband 02 sensor to try and get to the bottom of it, any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Hey jarrod

I have FC datalogit with upgrades etc.... have you got a laptop?

I would be willing to let you use it as long as I'm there.

cheers

Road tune styles.... least this way you can learn about your own PFC.

The reason behind me buying the Datalogit was the same reason as you... GETTING THE F^&KED AROUND by "high performance specialized import super spec tuning work shops" and paying top dollar for the privilege.

thanks heaps syslink67 ill give u a email, and yeh my sister has a lap top i should be able to borrow she has serial and usb :)

yeh the tuners i went to in perth was terrible, i was getting sick of the run around aswell, i bookd into x speed with a 5-6 week bookin got there they recon the wrong fuel was in the car n it was knockin to badly to tune and i would have to drive it around n drive out all the fuel, honestly it took me and a mate about 15 mins to get it out so they could of easily done it n charged me a lil extra just for the sake of getting it done that day, made another bookin but they rang up to move it or something so i gave up with then, booked it into cypher had my fmic n blitz i colour sbc installed, was meant to bring it bak on the weekend for the tune, got there and they claimed it was too hot, followin fortnight was meant to go in the guy they borrow the dyno from was in sharks bay still, next fortnight they were just like look take it to i think its hyperdrive or something in malaga.. in the end i pretty much just boxed my power fc after months of runnin around.. they seem to want to work on the big paying customers more.. sorry if we cant all bomb our cars over night :S

and jason as to the differences i couldnt really tell you that, i know most of the tuners use datalogit from what ive heard and seen in perth, i have both tuning programs on my computer, the fc pro that apexi uses looks way to complicated and my version all the errors that come up are in japanese i think and you cant do much without the cord, the datalogit program on the other hand is pretty user friendly, been able to do heaps of things with it without the cord.. look at other skyline maps etc

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
