ive just fitted a new fuel pump and need to tune the fuel curves as theyre rich as hell and all over the place

what would be a better option, the SAFC or a remap?

given i will be modding the car a bit in the future....

im running a bosch 910 pump and a garrett T04E with ex gate + all other normal mods (zorst, pod etc)

thanks!

Does diconnecting the battery reset the SAFC as well as the ECU?

no you can even remove the s-afc and it will keep teh same settings

some things to consider when using an s-afc you will need a boost cut defendeer if you plan to run more than 12 psi and timing changes could help you get more power.

. If your aiming for 160-70 rwkw then s-afc is fine 200 + then look at the power fc

No need for PowerFC for me, I'm not aiming for 200+ at all. I dont often drive that hard so it makes no sense!

I think 170 - 180rwkw is my target.

OK, if the settings are permanent, then I'm happy with that. Only thing is I'd like to have it in an inconspicuous position where it's well hidden! I dont want theives breaking my windows, and cops breaking my balls!

the e-manage is discrete, and for $450 is cheaper than the S-AFC with the options of upgrading it.

rev 210 tell me where I can by a emange with harness software sensores etc for 450 brand new.

nengun flogs the e-manage for $450AUS. The harness and software are extra, but I thought this guy just wants the functions of the S-AFC. If so the e-manage in its $450 form does the same thing. Anyway you can buy the E-01 boost controller later on and do away with the need for the harness and software.

Even if you wanted to use it in the same fashion as an AFC, wouldn't you still need the software to tune it?

thats only another 250 from here in australia... which makes the total 665 which is about what it is just to buy the e-manage unit itself... u do the math :D

no you don't need the software to tune it in afc mode.

The software allows FULL mapping of fuel and ignition blah blah blah just like the PFC etc.

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
