Apexi Powerfc Tuner Interface Issue (ffs)

[allthewaytotheskyline]

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've only had the issue on early model R32 GTR pfc's but there are ways around it.

[Swiper the Fox]

ive had the same issue in the past.

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.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

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

[allthewaytotheskyline]

its his laptop...yeh dont know why its doing that to be honest....its doing my head in.

never read or heard of it either...

guilt_toy im located in sydney...where are you?

he says its not often that it happened and all...i will email datalogit and see where it can go.

is this version thing really that criitical!!

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.

[allthewaytotheskyline]

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.

why doesn't your tuner update his version of the software?

[allthewaytotheskyline]

he is...just awaiting reply from datalogit.

[wolverine]

it should be a simple update from the forum.

if you wait for a reply from datalogit.....then who knows. my experience is they aren't quick.
