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

    • Ok i will get those 310mm. I found one but on a different site. This is the description on those...is it ok? Technical parameters: - Axle: front. - Disc type: ventilated. - Number of holes: 5. - Disc diameter: 310mm. - Total height with center: 54mm. - Thickness (new/min.): 30/28mm. - Designed for brake calipers manufacturer: Sumitomo.
    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
