Hiya, I've just found out that no-one in England can map a PowerFC for a R34 GTT because no-one has the right "lead" to connect it to a laptop (they can map GTR's but the GTT use's a different FC Commander version and needs a new lead to communicate with the laptop) and can only use the FC Commander which isn't ideal. Is there anyone who can get me a lead or tell me where to find one as I assume that your tuners have the right leads as they can map your GTT's.

Any help is greatly appreciated and you'll be able to help map the 1st GTT in the UK!

Cheers......................................................IanH

Hi IanH, we use the Commander to tune Power FC's. I have only ever seen two types of Commanders for R34's 415-N001 or 415-X001.

The above link shows the PFC and Commander models for each vehicle, it might help.

Datalogit have a porgram for laptops to tune (and data log) but as far as I know it is only available for GTR's at the moment.

Apexi Power Excel dealers in Japan have laptop programs supplied by Apexi, but the licence fees are expensive. I don't know of anyone In Australia that is a licensed Excel shop.

Hope that is of some use

Thanks SydneyKid - The GTT needs the N001 Commander and I was sent the X001 so I'll have to change that anyway. Even with the right Commander there is still no-way to connect a laptop (and Commander won't be as good). I'm in contact with Datalogit about a GTT version so I'll let you know later how that goes.

Cheers anyway.....................................................IanH

Ian, did you ever hear back from them about a GTT version? I'm probably going to be buying a GTT in the near future and I was hoping to get it mapped with the Datalogit software.

Cheers,

Michael

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
