guys, just fitted power fc to my r34 gtr. it wont run.....

i have turned off the boost control kit and checked that the ecu plug is all the way home.

i run 700cc sard injectors so i have set them to 63% and +0.02ms in the inj menu.

i am using 300zx afms and they are reading .45volts then .8volts when engine is turned over.

when turning the engine over i get 4deg timing and zero injector pulse in the monitor section of the pfc... bugger..

my car will run with the mines ecu with these afms so they seem okay....

any tricks...???

might need an r34 gtr ecu wiring diag if anyone has one...

someone told me to change injector lag to .30ms would this help.....???

hi markr34gtr,

I'm only having a guess, but are you having the same problem as aurospeed did with their PFC... see http://www.autospeed.com/cms/A_0301/article.html

Apparantley all PFC come pre programmed assuming the Electronic Boost Control is fitted, once they said no EBC is fitted the car ran perfectly.

another thing i noticed was on the ignition switch there is a small unit with 4 wires that was unplugged..

i plugged it in but made no differnce..

could this be the key code reader for the immobiler....

maybe this cuts fuel and timing....but lets it wind over....

funny as it runs with the mines ecu and these wires on the ignition switch unplugged or plugged in...

hmmmz if you can afford a 34 GTR you can afford a proper performance shop to stuff around with it? :)

thats why i can afford a r34 gtr is cause i am a qualified mechanic...

and try to sort out my own problembs not just give up and get ripped of at some workshop.. and they say oh well we cant fix it but heres a bill for 1 grand for our time...

so i think comments like yours you should keep in your head...

there are guys here you all help each other with there experiances........

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
