I'm on the verge of completing my build, all parts have been purchased and I'm just waiting on delivery of my injectors and fuel pump. Unfortunately I live in a fairly remote place and we don't have the facilities that the larger cities have particularly in regard to getting your vehicle tuned. Anthony Rodriguez will be here some time this week I believe but my parts won't have arrived so I'm missing out on a fantastic opportunity to get my 34 tuned. I'll probably have to wait another six months before he or someone of similar calibre returns.

Ok enough background, My build is something that has been done time and time again so I was wondering is there some common power fc settings that I can use in the mean time untill one of the more recognised tuners return to my area???

My build consists of the following:

- Nismo 600cc injectors

- Nismo fuel pump

- Trust adjustable cam gears

- 2860-5s x 2

- Blitz EBC

- full trust/greddy exhaust including front and dump pipe extention kit and titanium cat back, also no cat.

- power fc

- Z32 x 2

- Apexi pods

- Stock R34 cooler

Engine has just received full 100,000k service including all new belts, plugs, water pump, etc but has never been rebuilt so internals are all still stock.

Any common power fc settings would be much appreciated...

Forgot to add: The power fc is currently tuned to an almost stock setup. When it was initially tuned the car still had stock turbos, injectors, fuel pump, AFMs, air box and cam gears. So the only mods were full exhaust and boost controller I think and it pumped out 255RWKW with maxed out AFMs. The turbos will be fitted next week along with the remainder of the new parts I've acquired.

read the PFC FAQ

perform DATA INIT

set injector correct (in the FAQ)

set afms from the menu

check other sensors

start car and perform base idle (in the FAQ)

baby around until full tune

then drive to tuner when you are ready and get it tuned

Thanks heaps for that Paul I'll go through the FAQ and perform those adjustments as suggested.

My issue that there isn't a suitable tuner in the remote area in which I live and they only come up say every 3 to 6 months and he's coming this week but my car won't be ready as the injectors and fuel pump are still on the way. So unless I got one of the local mechanics with very little or no experience to tune it then I'm going to have to wait the 3 to 6 months (probably closer to 6) without the car being tuned.

So I guess my question is there any more specific settings that are common to my setup with the 2860 -5's that I can configure the power FC with so it will run safely for the next few months until I can get it tuned by a professional??? Or is what I'm asking just not really possible as each car is simply too individual to be using other vehicles settings even with the same engine, turbos, AFM's etc???

Each car is pretty specific mate.

things like ambient temps, boost levels, ambient pressure/sea level etc etc all pose factors that really make things difficult for someone just to 'give' you something.

It can be as simple as cam gear settings. What is best for one car, might not be the best for the next.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
