hey all,

currently trying to get my power fc tuned and the tuner has advised me that my power fc for r34gtt has a version (same as other pfc's afm's n all) which does not interface with his datalogit or software.(he has tuned other r34gtt's but diff version pfc)

now has anybody had this issue before??? if so how did they overcome it?

he has contacted apexi...but god knows when they will reply with a fix.

cheers, Bass

Weird.. send me a PM, bring your car over and I will connect my datalogit to it to test it if you like.

i wouldn't bother contacting apexi. why would they care if their ecu doesn't work with a non supported, 3rd party application?!?!

if anyone he should be contacting datalogit.

contact fcdatalogit in nz.....

by clicking here

and they will send a patch for the software to your tuner... all gtst/gtt are the same so it should be fine...

also it it his laptop or yours? the problem could also be the usb-serial converter software :rofl:

I had this issue pop up once before. The tuner could connect a R33 but the version he had wouldn't connect to my R34. He ended up doing the tune on the hand controller then the next time I had it retuned after a IC install he had the update and it connected fine.

welll see thats what he is planning to do...he is going to tune on his own powr fc (he owns a r34 gtt) and then save the map and re-write through the handcontroller.

he has began tuning...so we will see how it goes.

ive contacted datalogit...and am awaiting a reply for the update.

til then any help would be great.

thanks again.

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat.

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      By suko · Posted

      Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞

      I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat

      Starter motor replacment teeth count.

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I saw your intro update, are you sure you've actually had a starter motor failure? You mention it could be the alarm causing it. I'm assuming you've got a no start issue, but what are the exact symptoms, as there could be a few reasons it has stopped wanting to start.
