Hi all

Have just got my hands on a brand new Power FC (the new releases that Apexi have bought out) and it seems to work fine in the car, but will not let FC-Edit talk to it. I get an error something like:

'FC-Edit is unable to communicate with RB25DET version 7'

It then performs a scan and saves it as a file. I've sent this off to the FC-datalogit guys, but I'm a bit unsure how that is going to turn out as I have inherited the FC-Edit I own and am using an FC-Hako. I'm more then happy to register it and pay for software rights etc, but just waiting to see what the outcome is

Just wondering if any of the shops/tuners have come accross this yet and if there has been a fix provided yet

Hopefully it will help out others in my position also as I couldnt really find any information on this when I searched for it. I've plugged the new power FC in and I'm keen to be on Version 7.00 and not have to go back to my version 2.20E unit :P

For those of you playing at home

you need FC-Edit version 2.130k for the new Power FC's to talk to FC Edit :)

The guys at FC-Datalogit were very helpful. So hope this helps someone out one day.

I wasnt able to just save my old map and then write all to the new PFC, but it wasnt to bad, just had to write the IGN and INJ table, then do a bit of mucking around in the settings to get them to update. Injector settings had to be changed manually but.

i had them make version 2.130 a few months back for me as quite a few new pfc's are filtering through. there is a new tps vs ign feature that wasn't always active in all versions..

Sorry to revive an old thread, but I'm facing the same issue

Have gone online and managed to find 2.130, have mucked around with 2.128 and 2.130 for 2 hours now but we're still getting the same error message, does anyone have a link for 2.130k?

I'm assuming the 2.130k is the one that talks to the latest Pfc right? Not the 2.130?

Yep you need V2.130k or newer (if they have made a newer version since then)

I think I just emailed them and they just sent me the new version. With FC-Edit when you try and connect it makes some sort of .dat file (should notify you it is doing this because of incompatible version etc) and sent that off to them and they emailed me back the new copy of FC-Edit. Not sure if it will work for you, you may need to provide proof that you own the software. But worth a try

Thanks mate

unfortunately it's not my datalogit. With so many plug-in options recently like nistune or adaptronic etc, my tuner hasn't come across any r33s with the latest PFC.

he did shoot off the .dat file to datalogit, but the fc datalogit team normally takes around 1 mth to get back to his emails, so I'm just trying to see if there are quicker ways to get access.

we also tried logging into his datalogit yahoo group, but his ID has since been unregistered.

Anyway thanks at least we know he definitely needs the 2.130K and 2.130 won't work

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By 677_GTR · Posted

      Hi guys, I’m new to the GTR scene. Picked up an R33 GTR earlier this year that needs a lot of love. I’ve been going through the hot side, changing all the gaskets and while it was all off I managed to score a set of -9s. It still had the stock ceramics so I was pretty happy to get the 2860s.  I live in a small country in the pacific with 0 performance car scene. No dyno’s no performance parts, let alone stock parts for a skyline. I order everything from Australia and do it myself. This means I’ll be running the stock ECU. Maybe down the track I’ll get an aftermarket set up and do a remote tune.  Will the car run -9s on stock tune safely?  I have a very heavy foot so I really hope so 😂   thanks guys

      Leaking Rear Subframe Bushing?

      perfect, no rush to address the leaking bush then, it's not doing much/anything

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm not sure if it will bolt up, but.... I'm reasonably sure that the ID of the runners is somewhat smaller on the NAs. So it probably wouldn't be a good match at the flange where the top and bottom meet. So that would be a reason to not do it. And the skinny runners would be the bit you're keeping, which would be a reason to no do it. You'd want the big runners if you were doing any work to swap stuff. Why not just use what you've got, like nearly everyone else who has +T'd an NA? You don't need or want the TCS throttle or other stuff that is specifically DET inlet/crossover.

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      Makes sense. For actuators, if the pressure itself isn't adjustable, that would mean I'd need to think about 2 different actuators with 2 different pressures on paper in order for them to work at the same time if the turbos behave differently. So measure the difference in psi needed to move both, and then get an actuator to match that difference. Assuming I cant get rid of it by adjusting the arms.  You're exactly right, never happens in gear 1 or 2. I can occasionally get it in gear 3 if going uphill but its very small. Only ever in 4 and 5. Seems kind of backwards that one of the points of VCAM is faster spool but if it introduces shuffle then it actually slows spool down.
