Help From A Datalogit User With Stock Air Flow Curves

Hi guys, strange results when I changed from stock to vg30/z32 AFM in the stagea.

While the old AFM was standard (as far as I know), the PFC was set to VG30/Z32.

With the actual Z32 AFM, it runs badly.

I am pretty sure the air flow curves for vg30 have been fiddled with along the line somewhere.

My VG30 settings are:

Volts 0 0.32 0.48 0.64 0.8 0.96 1.12 1.28 1.44 1.6 1.76 1.92 2.08 2.24 2.4 2.56 2.72 2.88 3.04 3.2 3.36 3.52 3.68 3.84 4 4.16 4.32 4.48 4.64 4.8 4.96 5.12

VG30 0 4 5 12 22 45 55 78 85 135 200 260 295 320 350 450 500 700 850 950 1200 1400 1600 2000 2200 2300 2800 3000 3200 3500 3800 4500

I found a partial screen shot from Trent which showed VG30 as

0 8 8 17 31 52 84 129 187 257 345

But the settings were not complete and I am not sure if they are stock.

Can someone with standard VG30 settings in their PFC and Datalogit please post up the correct standard values?

Full settings are here for reference:

they're in the sample maps that come with fc-edit. if you dont have them then try re downloading the software. i'd upload a copy but dont have fc-edit on this computer

Excellent call, thanks mate.

I had been using the VH41 setting and the graph shows why it works....vh41 has the same AFM curve as VG30....

For reference, this is my vg30 curve vs standard afm vs standard vg30 curve vs vh41 curve.

No worries.

VH41 curve isnt the same as VG30, with that graph it'd be a much flatter line, higher airflow at low volts and lower airflow at high volts. Sounds like someones messed around with your afm tables a fair bit....

Found my copy of fc-edit and these are the standard settings for vg30 and vh41. You should be able to copy and paste these straight into fc-edit. Top row is VG30. At 2.08V both AFM's are flowing the same amount of air but below that the VH41 is flowing more and above that the VG30 is.

0 5 5 12 22 37 59 92 134 185 249 329 425 539 674 827 999 1197 1418 1655 1937 2246 2586 2961 3376 3835 4335 4883 5475 6114 6804 7546

0 5 13 25 40 59 85 117 159 210 274 344 426 526 635 758 906 1076 1268 1481 1716 1976 2277 2600 2992 3421 3854 4337 4847 5396 6015 6683

Excellent, thanks for checking this out. :cheers:

The numbers you provided above match what I got rom the default map for vg30 so that's good news.

No idea why everything else has been moved around...I'll clean them up over time, for now it just needs to run OK for a few weeks until a proper tune.

      R34 GTR Front Diffuser/Guard Liner questions.

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Hello everyone. I've recently started the research into R34 GTR front bits and running into eye watering prices. On the plus site it looks like some places make 'replacement' fender liners for these cars. At eye-watering-but-less than stock prices. I also noticed there's plenty of diffuser options available too. What I would like to know is if my following assumptions are correct. 1) The OEM guard liners are actually only 'half' the liner. They go together with the OEM brake vents which are a separate item which looks to be quite a large 'panel' that is part of the liner. The GTR bumper has bolt holes along the front. I assume the ones in the vent correspond to the ones the OEM liner does not have (circled?)   2) The V-Spec front diffuser supplants the brake ducts in the above item. I am assuming these still work with the guard liners as there's no alternate part that I'm aware of. I don't see how they go together, so I'm making the assumption that they have to, somehow. I know the center splash guard is different on the V-Spec (and is the price of the damn diffuser alone). How does the liner interact with this? 3) There's alternate front diffusers that do away with it all. Annoyingly, a lot of the clones and CF different ones... have no brake ducts on them. I like the idea of them though. My brakes get hot on the track. These alternate diffusers are a lot cheaper than plastic splash guards. I'm assuming you don't have to/aren't supposed to remove guard liners to run a diffuser. I suspect that quite a few people actually do not run the guard liner because with a front undertray you're getting a lot of 'splash' guarding anyway, and most people remove liners given they're probably running a pretty aggressive setup with a diffuser at the front. It would also be nice to know if anyone has ever run the 'reproduction' guard liners and know whether the fitment is OEM quality or "OEM Quality". Example: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/356254671561 https://carbonetics.net/products/nissan-skyline-r34-gtr-plastic-front-wheel-arch-set Is this knowledge still around?

      Really, effort is pretty low. You hand fistfuls of cash over to someone else and pick it up when done...   And at least this shitbox isn't drinking coolant right?

      Cold compression test after rebuild... should I be worried?

      And most chargers that most DIY people own would put bugger all power back into the battery between cylinders. I've always done it with jumper packs/second battery connected. And that's on any car.   Because race car, and wanting the lightness.  At least in an R33, putting a bigger battery in can at least help shift the weight balance backwards

      OR, Tell the Motec to STFU, you said shift, so try shifting! But then yes, I agree, more sensors needed to. Put either a wheel speed sensor, or a diff speed sensor on it. Then get an input shaft speed sensor too. (I say input shaft speed, and not engine RPM). This way, you can now also log and see if the clutch is slipping (RPM, vs input shaft speed), and you can calculate gear (Input shaft speed / Output shaft speed). At least then if the gear position sensor fails you have a backup. And realistically, the Motec should only worry about what gear you're in for the parts where I'm assuming you have some power management strategies in it for the lower gears. (IE, lower boost, maybe different throttle curves, different ignition curves, etc etc). But it should stop it shifting. Pull the flappy, that f**ker should just attempt the motion! Heck, even on a sequential like on a motorbike, you can keep trying to kick it up a gear all you want, the physically part of the box takes care of not being able to loop the whole way around the box! Only part you'd have to worry is how it gets to reverse.  But that's on the driver... An R32 shouldn't be so smart as to try and override the driver on a gear shift
