[steven]

G'day

Hi mates, i've got a Apex'i SAFC (Bule screen one) , just wonder what is the good setting for R34 GTT?

My aim is just a little performace, because it's for daily work use. (Fuel)

This is my setting now:

*Hi-Thrti * *Low-Thrti

1000rmp+2% 1000rmp-2%

2000rmp+2% - 10%

3000rpm+2% -0%

4000rpm+3% +2%

5000rpm+4% +3%

6000rmp+5% +4%

7000rpm+2% +1%

8000rpm+2% +1%

*Throttle

LO HI

25% 50%

*Dec.air

Thr....%

Nei: 1.0%

Ne2: 1.5%

Cheers

hmmmmmmmm I would be taking it to get it dyno tuned all settings are different but as a guide most people take fuel out as skylines tend to run rich.

Throw it on a dyno is the only way to tune it accurately. My first dyno session we where taking -20% out at 6000rpm, now its about -8% with the FMIC and extra boost

You will need to tune it on a dyno and richen/lean based on your A/F ratio. You cannot just add it in with "feeling". If you get it wrong, you will definitely destroy your engine. Every car is different, exhaust, air filter, boost level, all can cause differences and therefore your setting may not be able to be used for on other cars, also you can't just plug in the numbers that your mate has on his SAFC just because the other person has an R34 GTT too.

Decceleration Air is only needed if you have an atmo-venting BOV (aftermarket).

Thanks meggala ! Anyone got a SAFC on their car? please tell me what's your setting.

cheers

[steven]

Thanks guy. How much would you think it charge for that?

cheers

[rs73]

Mine still on 0%, untuned...... trying to book a time on dyno sometime next weekend and should have a result by then. It's a R33 GTS-t though, not R34 GT-T so I dunno how are you gonna compare it.

Cost varies from place to place, but a group dyno day (run only no tuning) will cost around $50-100, and tuning maybe somewhere $100-150 onwards depends on how much needs to be done. But I don't own a workshop so ring around for prices. I could be wrong.

[steven]

Thanks guys. I'll try to tune it on a dyno .

Again Thanks for the advice.

I have an r33 GTST with an safc, your looking around $110 an hour on the dyno + wateva you organise with the workshop for tuning, usually on the dyno for around 1 or 2 hours give or take depending on the car. Get i professionally tuned dont stuff around with it yourself, if the car runs lean you'll get detonation and you dont want that!!

[GTS-t VSPEC]

1-2 hours to tune an SAFC? Who's tuning it, a cripple? Even our apprentice at work can tune them in about 20mins.

Also will SAFC loose it memory if your battery go dead?

[rs73]

No it won't..... unless your battery has been dead for an extended period of time, there is a chance that it will eventually loose its memory. And that would be a very long time I'd say....
