Mmmmmm datalogging :rant:

Just waiting on the call for when the dyno is free. There's a race buggy on it and it gets priority as it is racing this weekend, which I'm happy enough waiting for as I have plenty of times spent my hard earned on race entry fees and worked until a few hours before to make it.

gtrken, to use the laptop software, did you have to use a specific dongle? what sort of connection is it? a serial to PS2 cable or something? could you post pics of the dongle?

FC Datalogit is your friend..... :rant:

Cheers

Ken

I still want an ADL though :D

Me too, but they were way too expensive...but plenty of ppl make them other then Motec. :aroused:

I was booked in to do the Motec course last year in Sydney but had to cancel because of work, is it worth the oney....im definetley doing the data acquisition seminar :D

Hey Vics,

Have done a search but can't find any specific info - was just wondering how much it costs to tune a Power FC?  

I was hoping around the $200 mark at somewhere like ICE, is this enough??

thanks

Dude, the only way you are going to find out is to call them

Gerald or Nigel are both champions

9512-7591

does that mean everytime you add for example an intercooler or change your setup in some form or manner, you are looking at $500 to re-tune?

I doubt it, I imagine it's initially more expensive to set up all of your map's properly and once this is done, addition of a bolt on like a FMIC should only need a bit of "tweaking"!

When someone does an initial tune, do they use the base map which is provided with the PowerFC and then tweak that?

Would the base map on the PowerFC need a lot of tweaking for the usual mods like exhaust, intercooler and a bit more boost??

Can the base map settings in the powerFC be retrieved if it is a second hand one (can it be reset)???

When the PowerFC first comes there is a basic map to get the car started so the tune can be performed. Any experienced FC tuner can just sit there and edit these values to get a very basic tune then dyno run it a couple of times and tweek it to get it perfect.

Yes add values can be be cleared. There is a data clear function in settings.

Adjustments and retunes would not cost the same as the inital setup. All you'd be paying for is the dyno time so it would be a lot cheaper.

Back with a result, the dyno map is in another thread I started but my money got me 220rwkw with the mongrel no breed turbo $250-300 is the going rate from Creatd and I am very happy.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
