Hi,

I have just upgraded injectors (nothing rly else that would affect anything) on my R34 GTT. I have nistune and so i changed the k constant by going through the injector resize option and changed from 725cc to 1000cc.

This brought the k constant down from like 394 to 285. Problem is my air fuel gauge shows about 20 on the gauge and it runs pretty choppy. If i move the k constant up closer back to 394 originally the AFRs drop down back to closer to 14.7.

But if i rev it just a tiny bit it jumps up again.

Any suggestion would be appreciative! Just trying to get the car able to be moved to the tuners 350km away.

It already had an existing tune and ran no problem.

Thanks :)

Injector latency is different even between same brand. An example is this pair (Denso made injectors). Sard 700cc 0.65msec, Sard 800cc 0.75msec.. so you can imagine the latency difference between 725cc and 1000cc.

Bring you min injector on time up a little - they are probably be operated outside the non linear range of the injector... Unfortunately it is not an exact science... Especially when your not taking into account latency.

Hey guys yeah you were right thanks jacked the latency to 1030. Now its idling perfect at ~ 14.7 AFR and rest of the rev range looks good. Might read a bit more instructions next time ;) There wont be any damages having 20AFR on idle ? Also not having narrowband plugged in is also okay on a 350km trip ?

Narrowband sensors get damaged when they're not powered as the heater can't burn off deposits. It sounds like you're using Nistune, there's are afew ways to ignore O2 feedback, one of them is to set the minimum engine temperature which the ECU will accept O2 feedback (defaults at 30C) to something high 200C where the engine has no chance of getting that hot, this way they will at least be powered.

I have my wideband in its place at the moment, so its not connected at all or screwed inside the dump. I prefer to keep the wideband so i can monitor AFRs on the way there, also just read that i can solder some wires to the ecu to simulatre narrowband signal :O. Its MTXL Innovate one. Or since the AFRs are okay i can just plug in the narrowband so cruise is okay and hope not issues.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
