so at the moment it has a hks filter and exhaust a profec b boost cotroller

and i want to fit my adaptronic 420c ecu from Australia now this is where the issues start as i have a base and i think the fuel map will be off which isnt a issue but i have been reading that the rb25det has a variable inlet cam ! so i was wondering if you lads can help out seeing as the ecu is from ur place plus you know ur skylines

heres the ignition table

and the bit thats doing my head in the variable cam timing can you please as i havnt a clue

you will need to call the adaptronic dealer in aus to get this info, we don't use adaptronics in Skylines very much.

remember that the r33 vct is different to the VVT on other cars.

You have to set it up to be off from 0 - 1200rpm, then switch it on at 1200rpm and turn it back off again where the car likes it the most, usually around 4700rpmish.

You should try and sell the ecu and buy a Vi-Pec V44 plug in, that would be your best bet.

i think ur right we have mark shead from ma developments here who has a very good relationship with ray hall so v44 plugin seems the way then i take it that will control the inlet cam as its a replacement ecu ?

Yea best to post on the forums for adaptronic, Andy or one of the boys with jump on it pretty quickly for you or even give them a call.

Have you tried the map on their site for the rb25 that someone dyno tuned?

yeh the screen shot is from that map and the cam control isnt filled in hence this thread and adaptronic seem to be helpfull but not to the extent i need ! so i take it adaptronic isnt a favourite in Australia then ?

Yes. There are a couple of tuners on here including myself who have setup the vct on rb25's with the V44 ecu so you should have no issues with setup. Ray Hall will load a map into the ecu with VCT already setup for you if you ask him, if not i can email you one.

You won't regret getting the V44, its a great ecu!

could email a map for me to look at i have downloaded the software i would love to have a look ! if you can my email is [email protected]

cheers jay

I myself am alooking at switching to a VIPEC Plugin ecu for my build, I may just run it in on the Adaptronic then bugger it off for the ViPec

are the adaptronic classed as a bad ecu then?

and does anyone know if the solenoid for the vct is just a on and off operated or is it pid controlled

i would put them in the same boat as a microtech, they work well and do the job. don't listen to what i say though, i do not know much about them.

I remember msnismo had one in her car and she removed quick smart for a Haltech

this is how the vct works

    • I was using the wiring diagram I have So 12.74V is coming into the rear Fuel Pump relay as I measured.  When I turn the key to ON im getting 0.6V to the Fuel Pump plug; which i assume is backfeed voltage and doesnt include the 12V from ignition power.  The rear relay is working and being triggered.  From the diagram I clearly see the rear relay 80 = Rear Relay going into the Body/H loom (R-27) 27 = Fuel Pump plug going into the Body/H loom (T-20) 40 = Short Connector (R-27) I'm reading 12.74V on the blue/black wire which is the power for the Fuel Pump   From this diagram I can see the Ignition relay goes into the front and up to the ignition  2 = Fuel Pump Relay <1M> (R-27) 37 = ING Relay <1M> I started from the pump using this reference Which the way I read it (referencing Nissan wiring color codes) is: Pin Wire Color Function 1 B/P (Black/Pink) Ground 2 L/W (Blue/White)        ECU Trigger 3 SB (Sky Blue) Fuel Pump 5 L/B (Blue/Black) 12V Constant Tested SB to SB on Fuel Pump for continuity - confirmed Tested negative on Fuel Pump to 12V battery and L/B - confirmed 12V Pulled the relay putting 12V between Pin 1 & 2 and testing continuity on Pin 3 & 4 - confirmed relay   So that has me looking at this part of the circuit to understand whats happening here...and im still confused. From best I can tell; the disconnect is back to my previous diagram; between Ignition Relay and Fuel Pump Relay...which yet again; afaik is where the immobiliser should.    Thats what I was trying to explain to GTSboy; im not trying to fix it myself; yet I seem to have to get a Masters in Electrical Engineering (while im busy doing my actual job of DevOps & Cloud Engineering) somehow.  I just wanted more expert opinions; or more so that what I tested is correct and proves it to something around that area; to go back to the alarm tech (for a 3rd time) that he needs to fix it. He keeps telling me its not the alarm. He lives on the complete other side of the city so i understand not wanting to make a trip but as I said before if its the alarm it should be up to him to fix it. But he's adament its not; even though I pointed out the FP was immobilised through the original alarm. To my mind; it seems that the ECU is sending the signal; but the ignition is not getting 12V down the line.       
    • Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.
    • I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?
    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'
