do you have the boost control kit?

when the PFC is data init'd to defaults the boost kit is turned on by default

this means, if yours was "reset" and you aren't using the boost kit the engine check light would remain on until you disable the boost control kit

the PFC has no limp mode or back out mode other than what the stock ECU has

and this is your typical if AFM is dead, cap rev limit at 2500rpm etc - really basic rev cuts and idle protection

it wont know if your fuel pump is being gay or leaking fuel etc

im not sure, it has a setting for boost control i think, but i have a HKS EVC as well, so not sure there.

BTW here are the mods:

RB26

Trust T78-33D

PowerFC w/Commander

HKS EVC5

Trust Manifold

Trust External Gate

Tomei Type-R Poncam

SARD Injectors

Adjustable type fuel regulator

HKS Pod Filters

Z32 twin AFM's

Trust Intercooler

Trust Oil Cooler

3-Layer Copper Radiator

Low temperature Thermostat

Turbo Back Exhaust

My god son get it to a tuner it's obvious that the tune is on default maps - and by the sounds of it if there is no fuel leak than you must be hosing those bores with fuel. If it's got an issue withtge maps not storing than ashas been said check the keep alive batteryinput into the ecu - if it's good get a new PFC.

gave it a basic settings change last night, car is now running fine (albeit with less power and tonnes of lag)

for anyone interested, these were the settings i was given:

Seq.turbo cont ... default = on ..change to OFF

Inj/AirF Warn. ...default =on...change to OFF

Knock Warning ... Default on .....Leave ON

O2 F/B control (O2 sensors) ..Default =on...Change Both to OFF

Idle-IG Cntrl....(O2 Regulation) Default =on.......Change to OFF

then turn my injectors (beleived to be 700cc) down to 75% from the factory 100%.

for some reason the first setting (seq turbo) wasnt there, instead the boost kit option was there. i did everything by the notes, and left the boost kit on just to see, got a huge fuel cut, and sent the knock to 30. turned the boost kit off, and it seems to have disappeared.

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
