Hey there,

I have a GTR34 V-spec and recently something weird happened where the computer thinks its at the rev limit at 1500rpm and 6100rpm yet lets you go past. Basically at these two points it starts to cough and splatter as if the fuel lines gets blocked. We have checked everything eg. fuel pump, injectors etc and it would seem its the Power FC.

The question is does anybody know anywhere in Melbourne that can check them out to confirm if its screwed or not? Plus is there a way to reformat them instead of purchasing brand new or is it better to buy a new one?

If anyone has experienced anything like this happy to hear!

Not from down there, but from what I hear Race Pace is quite good. They will be able to check out your tune to that it is right. It could be certain load points on the grid that need to be tweaked.

They could re-do the tune from scratch if you can afford it too.

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
