I have been told that Apexi PFC doesn't work with auto Skyline.

But than again I read in another tread that this guy had it in his auto Skyline as well and was working fine.

How did you get the Apexi PFC to communicate with the auto ecu?

If it does work, does that also mean the HKS F-con should work to than?? VERY INTERESTING.

I purchased my PFC off of the NZ skyline forum (prior to this forum starting up i think)

I just plugged it in and it worked straight away. (I had it tuned a few months later)

I have heard others say that the PFC will not work on autos but mine has given no problem. Someone did suggest that this could be because it is a series I R33.

craz0, I spoke to the guy that installed the Wolf3D in the auto R33 GTS-t Skyline. He said it was very simple. He simply used the plug'n'play Wolf for the Skyline, then made sure that the TPS and tacho signal's were still routed to the auto ECU and it all works great.

Hope that helps.

If they can do that with the Wolf3D, why can't they do the same with the Apexi and the HKS.

Thanks too Gtst, at least now I know there is anothe ECU out there that can take the auto ecu as well.

Now sorry to whore your tread craz0, but with the extra power etc. Will you also need something to make the auto last? Like a bigger transmission cooler or strenghen the auto?

If the standard trans isnt strong enough I believe a Nissan Patrol box can be installed with very few mods. The benifit I believe is a thicker input shaft and splines. A good place for information about this is SA Race Transmissions and Differentials at Modbury North (SA).

    • I'd be worried about having to parallel park a boat like that. Magnificent car though.
    • This car has run before on this z32 ecu can get the part number for you, I have tried with no AFM it didn’t change anything, I compression tested today 140-150 across all 6 cylinders, also set fuel pressure to 43psi. The only weird thing was cylinder 1 plug was black and fouled other 5 cylinders were just wet with fuel. Spun cas by hand and confirmed injectors are clicking 
    • Since you came here to ask for help, have you thought about answering our questions, that might help us lead you to why it was skipping, or have you given up on getting advice?
    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
