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.

    • If it dies, then bypass. The task isn't difficult. I have one running on a standard R32 FPCM. That's after nearly 20 years of it running an 040, which pull substantially more current than the Walbro. They're not the same module, but I'd hope it indicates that the R33 one should be man enough for the job. I think people kill them when putting proper sized pumps on them, not these little toy pumps we're talking about here.
    • Silicone spray won't hurt anything. And if it does, that's an opportunity to put some solid steel spherical bushings in, so you can really learn what suspension noise sounds like, If you're going to try it, just spray one bush at a time, so you can work out which one is actually noisy. My best guess is that if the noise started only since putting the coilovers in, then it is just noise being transmitted up through the top mounts of the struts, and not necessarily "new" noise from bushes. But it's almost impossible to know.
    • Are you saying the 34 is SUV height, and not that we're talking about an SUV here? (because if we're talking about an SUV, you don't fix them. You just replace them when something breaks. Not worth establishing sufficient emotional connection with an SUV to warrant doing any work on one). I wouldn't jack my car up on a short little loop of 10mm steel rod poking out through a hole in the bumper bar, front or rear end. I realise that we're probably not talking about that type of loop at the front, being the one under/behind the bar on a Skyline.... but even for that one, trying to jack up on what amounts to a thin piece of steel, designed purely for withstanding a horizontal tension force, not a vertical compressive force (and so would be prone to buckling/crushing) and, my most particular bitch about it - located RIGHT AT THE EXTREME FRONT OF THE CAR, applying a load up through the radiator support panel, etc, with almost the entire mass of the car cantilevered between there and the rear wheels? Nope. Not doing that. Not on the regular. That structure out there in front of the front crossmember is not designed to carry load in the vertical direction. Not really designed to carry any load at all, really. The chassis rail that the tow point is connected to would be fine loaded in tension, as per towing. Not intended to carry the mass of the whole car, especially loaded all on one rail, with twisting and all sorts of shitty load distribution going on. No, I will happily drive up on some pieces of wood, thanks. That can only happen on driven wheels, and they are at the other end of the car, and this problem does not exist at that end of the car. And even then, I have been known to drive up on at least 1x piece of 2x8 each side at the rear, simply to reduce the amount of jack pumping necessary to get the car up high enough for the jack stands. What really really shits me about Skylines is the lack of decent places for chassis stands at either end of the car. You'd think they'd be designed into the crossmembers.
    • I've got MCA Blues on my V36 Skyline, and while I've managed to sort out issues with scrubbing/bottoming out by raising it a smidge and increasing the damping hardness, the rear end still sounds *super* noisy when driving on anything other than the flattest surface imaginable. It sounds like a small party of flamingos are just chatting away in the back, which makes me think there are several link points in the suspension contributing to the noise. Am I hearing dried out/worn bushings? None of it sounds like metal-on-metal, it sounds more like hard rubber squeaking on metal. It's been suggested that a bit of silicon spray on each bushing might quiet them down, but I'm not sure what material the current bushings are made of (probably factory, I imagine) and whether silicon spray will degrade that material.
    • The obvious answer here is get a ND2/3 RF with the Targa top. The red is nicer, too!
