Hey guys got my car tuned today with my recently installed safc 2. Running a turbotech v2 boost controller.

Some strange things going on here

1. AFRs lean initially even though SAFC 2 was setup for no correction

2. I set the boost the night before on 11psi but first run shows levels just under 9psi and then it goes to 11 again after. Is this the tuner removing it initially to minimise risk of problems before tuning.

3. Graph on initial run is much smoother than the final tune the hump at the end is my main concern, is this just the limit of the safc adjusting fuel and effecting timing or bad tuning or something else.as.i notice the boost drops off then almost mirroring the peak hump.

It just seems weird to me besides the AFRS are better.the boost, power and torque curves look better on the initial run.

at the end of the day you have given the guy a piece of shit solution to a problem.

when you tune with a safc you can only move the afm voltage up and down, its never going to be good like a aftermarket ecu.

stop complaining, and buy a decent ecu. congrats you have now learnt your lesson, just be glad a new engine is not needed.

i am not complaining saying "why isnt my graph perfect" i know what an SAFC does and that its not as good as a standalone, but they have been proven to produce good results for my modifications.

So if any people with previous experince having SAFCs it would be most appreciated.

Basically the SAFC is just removing the R&R and changing the mixture slightly. It is not optimising the modifications therefore the end result is whatever the engine combo spits out.

Also Anthony is a tuner and a very capable one.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
