Power Loss On Downshifts, Bouncing Idle And Slight Hesitation At Specific Rev Point -R34Gtt


Recommended Posts

I wouldnt be best placed to comment - hence my posting - waiting for the gurus GTSBoy, Scotty, BadGaz, XKLABA and others...does it (my maps) look alright?

that map looks fine to me, RB25 motors all have that timing "wedge" which then decays as RPM increases

It looks odd to me though, but then again I wouldn't know if its normal as you said..

Is this a tune or log?

Yeah the data looks fine and your shown us all your other fuel corrections..... AFM... Noticed someone is having a sale on afms in the for sale section.

things I've suggested already in previous posts.

  • get a datalogit kit
  • get a wideband
  • produce a log

myself and other members will analyse - looking at the timing map & fuel maps is one thing, but they both look normal to me.

Here's mine for reference (but it's on E85):

28 pages of information condensed into one simple action plan...this is all that you need to do before anything else.

I have been monitoring AFM voltages with the commander - idle is always alternating 1190-1250V ish, and I had to switch my afm warning off in powerfc because high rpm/boost runs always bring on the engine light at 4.8V+ in 2nd and 3rd. AFM voltage peaks too much, AFM settings is actually 100% for every voltage readout uptil 5.12V in the afm calibration table.

Datalogit kit is money wasted just to diagnose a problem, I dont even have a laptop haha, will a wideband with gauge just do? Johnny I wana borrow your AFM for 30mins on the weekend lol

saturday arvo works - you will owe me a 6 pack of James Squire or so

another easier way, buy an ECU that uses a MAP sensor.. you won't have these AFM issues and reversion issues

I found that 'wedge' on the timing map is because of the two timing values 30 on the N20 cell highlighted here (highest rpm/ lowest load). I can smooth that out- dunno why they left such a big jump but I doubt that will make the map any 'better' - when does anyone ever reach redline at min load?

Overrun/overrev on downshift.

Also, and by the way, when you say "wedge" do you mean the ridge of high timing running along the top, or do you mean the little dip right at the end closest to the viewer?

Not exactly a map tracer but this table shows where my map tracer cells roughly are during a normal drive(top yellow blob) and then downshifting (bottom blob) this is where they go and the car becomes an ass for 4-5 seconds...

Edit - I would probably move that second blob 3 cells down - thats more where it goes to.

    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
