Hi Guys,

I recently took ownership of an R34 GTR with 2350s, upgrade cooler, exhaust, fuel system, clutch, etc. It should be good for over 300kw at the treads and it is. However i have hardly driven it because i have pulled it apart purely to race it, so no interior etc. Had it on the dyno the other day and it would not go past 150km/hr or 6k rpm. We then reinstalled the GTR MFD and it then went to 204km/hr and not past 6k rpm. It did make 316kw though.

My tuner messed around with it for a while and we changed a map from another GTR into it and that got it revving to 8k like it should. However all of the PIM voltage settings have been changed by the last tuner and we think this has caused all of the dramas.

Does anyone have any information on how these work.

I am also after the standard Power FC D Jetro map with all of the PIM settings unchganged. Does anyone have this or know where i could get one from?

I am a bit unsure about the tech side of this, but would love some help as i need to get my car running. The tuner i use is the same guy i have used for years but his experience is with motec, autronic and normal power fc and he has little experience with the FC jetro and the PIM settings.

Unfortunately i am not in a financial or time position to do the upgrade to Motec M800 like i want so need to get this sorted this week,

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Matt

if you want std maps on the powerfc djetro (or any powerfc for that matter) you simply do a DATA INIT to reset it back to default map apexi shipped it with

if you need more help i would suggest reading powerfc FAQ in my sig, all the info is in there

but essentially if you want std maps (blow away current tune) you can do DATA INIT

if you are unsure or want to practice

try

yep

DATA INIT erases every setting on the powerfc back to default maps apexi shipped it with

make sure you do the following after DATA INIT, but before you start the car the first time

you read the powerfc faq BEFORE you do it

make sure

- set injectors if non std

- set map sensors if non djetro std

- set boost control kit on/off

- learn how to do self idle adjust

Thanks Paul,

Your a star.

For my own information what is the purpose of the PIM voltage settings and do they need to be changed from what apexi ship it with?

My tuner was talking about a scale that may be availabe that shows rpm vs voltage?

the PIM is the scale and offset for the map sensor

this allows you to run non std map sensors and scale it accordingly

ie the std map sensor is 3 bar (peaks at 2bar boost) and has whatever offset and scale apexi set it to

if you run a 4 bar map sensor (peaks at 3bar boost) then you need to adjust the scale and offset

because both map sensors only go from 0v to 5v but one is 3 bar sweep and the other is 4 bar sweep

so this allows you to get it so that with map sensor #1 1.2bar is say 2.1v and map sensor #2 is 1.2bar is 1.6v

so its only used to run larger map sensors

if you want more tuning resolution you need to edit the RPM and Load axis ramp to give you more or less load points

so lets say you want 10k RPM limit you can leave as default and change upper ceiling RPM limit

and youll use the same value from 8k to 10k or if you want to use more cells in that range (as most would)

then you grab the RPM ramp in FC Edit (need datalogit) and scale it outself so that the 20 cells range form 0rpm to 10,000rpm

    • 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.
