Hey guys i am about to book the car in to get one just wondering if anyone has one and can comment on how they like it dislike it? i know a lot come down to tuner but i am just tossing up between this and the autronic SM4 ??

RB26

Blitz 660R turbo

stock intercooler

exhaust

256 cams

looking for a nice streetable setup, hence i was looking at the wide band with the haltech if i go for that ?

I only trust the STD ecu and PFC when using the STD cas if you want a 1 deg sensitive control. On most setups I'll try using the cas but if I get too much timing scatter I go to a crank trigger setup. As for sm4 vs haltech there is no comparison the autronic has been a better system for years.

i dont like Haltech after finding out that the ecu doesn't deal with knock. And in my opinion knock is one major part of tuning. In my case i tune on my own. i dont like the idea that i have to buy a knock microphone now.

So go with Power fc mate better and easier to tune. D-jetro or L-jetro

hope i helped

Well you know the turbo setup as well trent :) would you say they are on par with each other? i just dont want to fork out and then a new ecu come out!!

HAHA its coming together hey? good to see! keep us updated :)

If you do decide on the PFC d-jet we have i will leave the tune in it to give you a starting point.

Thanks trent, yep trying to have it ready for power cruise :) I am not looking forward to pulling twins off though :P

Will the djet run twin maps as I want to change from 98 to e85 there isnt any 85 for 4 hours if I drive home so twin maps is a must :) this was why I was looking at haltech autronic, will the autronic run a wide band ? I assume so ?

You cant really run dual maps with the djet - not without datalogit and a laptop. I know it may sound pretty crude but on some of the xr6t e85 tunes I've done remotely I just add 28% extra fuel and 6degree more timing - this is as long as I know the 98oct tune was correct and I will generally get within 1% of my desired fuelling. You could probably do the same with the djet by adding global corrections to the 98Oct tune.

The autronic will accept pretty much all narrow and wide band sensors available - apart from ford narrowband 3V. You can also autotune.

Does anyone know if Autronic have made any progress toward calibrating the sm4 knock control module for rb's? I was told they were doing the calibrations in March last year but no word since...

I'm pretty sure that P-FC's don't have any knock control either, well if you don't count flashing a light as knock control.

    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
