Sorry to kidnap your thread craz0 but this will only take a sec...

Steve-SST: Does the wolf plugin use the AFM for tuning?  If it won't idle without the MAP plumbed in, I'm assuming it doesn't?

Plugins come with a MAP tune but they have a MAF function but every ones used the MAP sensor.I will tune one on the MAF to get a base map if any one wants to use the MAF, but why bother.

I hooked up the Wolf 3D and it doesn't want to start everything seems to be fine, I pluged in the MAP sensor and nothing, the Injector lights on the side of the ECU dont flash at all. Anyone got any ideas?

The picture attached does anyone know what it is? when I have the Wolf pluged in it you can hear it motoring away with the reds on but with the original ECU in it doesn't do it.

The PFC will work fine with the manual because it doesn’t need the auto ECU as for witch one to use well that’s up to you and what your tuner knows.

They both work well the PFC just doesn't talk to the Auto ECU and the Wolf does.

I was running a motec in my auto for a bit. The PCM gets its signal from the engine ECU for the lineal TPS and also the 3/4 throttle position for kick back. Its just a matter of bridging those across. OH, dont forget the speedo signal either.

I can't get into diagnostics mode for the auto. I'm sure I followed the procedures.

I'm running a microtech lt-12 on a series 2 r33 auto. While it works fine when cold - as soon as it warms up the auto refuses to drop into first gear unless from a full stop, or I select it manually. Refuses to do kickdown reliably, it does kick down but not far enough. It always wants to run in 4th gear as well at low speeds. Seems like its always one gear two high.

I wonder if I need a series 1 auto computer?

Also on reading this thread - it seems I need to splice some wires, I havn't spliced anything

and been running for 2 months now.

I'll need to get more info on how to do this splicing.

i dont know too much bout the skyline auto's but the toyota guys leave the standard comp in place and run another comp as a pigiback .... worked great in a mate cressida...

there is a guy that has built a unit (standalone from ecu) with two buttons upshift and downshift these shift the box for you and work great to but i dont know if it'll work with a skyline box (dont see why not)

only shit thing is it will always be like that as in you loose the "auto shift" most performance guyz dont mind though :)

AP Engineering moddified the PFC to suite the auto Toyota JZX100's, so I would say that the Toyota Auto's would be easier to do. That or the Auto Toyota is more popular then a Auto Skyline and that's why they did it.

Send me your specs and i will send you a good map with the Idle stepper setup also.

hey steve, do you mind if I get a map with the idle stepper setup as well?

Because ive plugged in my wolf and it runs the car fine, but it sometimes stalls on idle or at very low rpm. Just need a map so I can drive to the workshop safely :wassup: without having to worry when power steering is going to give out...

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
