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).

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
