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

:P

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.

    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head. (me)
    • Ha ha ha, so they stopped the bearings spinning on the one you want, but then decided the crank hub should slip instead 😛   Stick to RB, at least you can work on it yourself. And now it doesn't smell of vapour   Also I still believe there's a chance your new flap doesn't "pop", as even though the engine might breath hard, it has a direct path with no restriction to the inlet, which when on boost should pull a bit of suction for you. If you do get pressure in the catch can id be very intrigued. Time to put a boost gauge on it, and a session at the track, then solid cover your vent and do another session
    • Oh nah, S55 doesn't eat bearings, just the crank hub slips lol.
    • When’s the tow ball on the 33 coming? 🙃
    • I welcome any basic question that can help haha. Yes it has 2 unis but the driveshaft is a one piece and the unis are welded without a slip yoke at each end.   What's funny is anytime I've ever had wheel vibrations it's always been in the front so I automatically assume it will lead to steering wheel shake and not chassis vibration. With that being said, I never considered looking at my rear wheel balance... I have doubts though as this wasn't an issue before I pulled the motor and trans but is still very much worth a look. I'll do that tonight after work. Thanks.
