Hey all just thought i would share my recent experience at Willall racing. After waiting a good 5 months for my Power FC it was time for a tune (see mods in my signature). When i called Willall and spoke to Gareth i was actually surprised that i got the car in so quick, 3 days to be exact. Drop the car off on Monday spoke to Martin briefly and told him i was after a nice safe tune and left the car there. Returned 2 hours later and to my surprise it was parked up and waiting for me.

I tell ya what Martin sure knows his stuff because the car pulls like a cut snake right through to redline and all on 10.5psi. So a big thumbs up for Willall Racing if your thinking of getting a PFC tuned in your Skyline.

201rwkw seems about right for the power/mods.. Top work. :)

You'll be used to it within a week or two and start thinking about the next round of mods. That GT30 turbo or something of the likes.

Care to share how much u were slugged for 2hrs on the dyno?

Lets just say i have no change left from $2000 after purchase of computer and install. Money well spent in my book best upgrade i have done yet.

I hear what your saying about getting used to the power but i think i have spent enough at this stage. Give it 6-12 months and i will be looking at upgrading turbo etc.

nice looking car :D i was there monday with the 2 s15's.

Martin sure does know his stuff and that new dyno is awesome, finally showing correct figures

Oh that makes sense now cheers for the comment. What did the S15 have done and what power did it make there if you don't mind me asking. Both cars were very nice indeed got a bit of a soft spot for the S15's.

the one with the kit had. Nismo 740cc injectors, HKS/Garret GTRS, profec B boost controller, greddy plenum, greddy suction kit. That made 200rwkw with a slipping clutch, martin said it should make roughly 220-230+ with a better clutch.

the other made 189rwkw with everything except the turbo and plenum.

The boost controllers were mucking around abit. Martin suggested a new wastegate spring/ actuator. They werent holding boost.

Thats nice power to weight must feel good on the street, thanks for sharing that info. The skyline made 197 on his dyno and 201 on Aussies at Hindmarsh which i thought was very close considering ones a mainline and the other is a Dyno Dynamic.

martin is a top bloke! got mine tuned with him, pulled out around 185kw on 12 psi! not to fussy about the figure but he gave it alot more bottom end which i asked for! at the end of the day i was really happy with how the car goes!

Mid range was the main reason for buying the power FC because the standard computer wasn't overly endowed in that area.

thats a very good figure!! top stuff!! i might take mine there for a retune... when i had my pfc mapped and tuned i only made 200awkw on 14 psi.. it was a reletively safe tune but still i tihnk i got a low reading! is their dyno 4wd or 2wd??

hopefully see ya out and about dude! thanks for sharing your experience and a good reccomendation

:D

Hey mate i didn't actually go into the shed but from memory it is a 2WD dyno from what i recall seeing. I'm sure 200awkw would be nice in a 32GTR nothing like traction.........Would be good to catch up on a cruise or something thats for sure.

good figure champ,

good to see my mates dyno at aussie's is fairly simular to the brandnew mainline at willall.

Ryan how are ya mate from what Michael told me your beast is now running some extra boost and making excellent power. Aussies dyno does seem pretty spot on thats for sure, i know of a gen3 pulling 208 at Aussies and then pull 224 at another place with nothing changed. Should catch up for a cruise in the near future.

I am going to go down the road of a RB20 ecu being remapped to my RB25.....with an ebc low boost on 10 and high boost on 13......would be interesting as to where that comes up as to your powerfc mate......

yea champ! 250rwkw on 14psi. Very usable power aswell...thanks mate we'll have to catch up.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
