N1 Turbos Laggy

hi all,

I recently had a PFC installed and retuned on my 32 GTR. Was previously running an eManage making 285rwkw and was getting around 420km per tank city driving.

With the PFC install the tuner leaned the tune out a little and got 311rwkw but now im seeing 320-340km per tank with very similar driving patterns.

Another situation im baffled with is the lag. Im getting full boost by 4600rpm with N1 turbos :) . Mods include 3.5Inch exhaust from front pipes back (std dumps), std internals, std cams, cam gears, Sard FPR.

Can anyone suggest some reasons why boost is coming on so late and fuel consumption is so crap now.

thanks heaps

in these situations you have to ask.. what changed.

From your description the only thing that changed was tune and possibly cam gears.

therefore unless (by sheer coincidence) your car developed a new problem right when the tuner had it, it must be the tune.

Did you get full dyno graphs before vs after including one showing AFR?

And btw your original power and consumption was very good for the mods you have, so I wonder what you were looking for in going PFC.

Was it laggy before the ECU Change?

If so, its either actuators need upgrading/modifiying to hold shut

Or

They might be N1's with a .63 rear on each, if so then 4600 is as good as it'll get.

Otherwise the economy - probably related to the tune

i changed to the PFC as im going to slowly increase the number of mods to the engine and was told the PFC is a better platform to do this. I got a good change over price too.

the car was laggy before as well. I will post up dyno graphs. The N1s are the factory fitted turbos on my car, its a genuine Nismo 32GTR so not too sure of the exhaust size.

Im thinking of fitting some Tomei Type A cams and dump pipes then getting a retune. what you think?

thanks for the advice so far.

Factory R32 N1 turbos are fairly lagy so thats about right, they are old design non ball bearing turbo...

Agreed :) Im not sure of the requirements/how/what setup they came on in the .63 either.

But ye, R32 N1's are the pits, hence R33s are better, and R34 N1's are the response monster for around the same power

Perhaps some more playing with the cam gears as if its stock housing N1's thats still a bit poor.

IMO cams wont give you much vs the $$$ you'll spend if at all.

hi mate did you get anywhere with this?

I run the same turbos unfortunately and they are pretty bad. but with cam gears set right and a good tune you should be able to bring the boost on a bit sooner, mine is about 4000 for full boost which is still noticeable lag.

only real concern with your setup would the standard dumps. the rest of your exhaust is good but the standard 32 dumps are woeful and would not be helping at all.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.

      Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
