no.

fuel or ignition, fuel cut is the go to default as its softer. ignition cut gives pops and bangs (and on an RB isnt great for the oil pump) and is harder.

powerfc does fuel cut for the limiter, more advanced computers can do either or both as steps (eg kill fuel at 8k and fuel and ignition at 8.5k)

Why oil pump dont like it ?

Im thinking of detonation as i did hit 66 knock at 7950rpm pop pop pop.

I have dejetro i have map no AFM

The only one for ign cut in PFC is pfc Pro n it has launch control too.
Im intrested in how launch control is done and how much more its helpfull

Because the oil pump drive off the crank gets smacked around like a hammer as the ignition cut limiters are generally faster to cut/resume and this eventually cracks the gear in your oil pump losing oil pressure followed shortly by the rest of your engine and turbo dying.

Launch control depends on the ecu, some are just a 2ndary limiter, some do ignition retard and add fuel to build boost. If you have a gtst. Launch control that builds boost is fairly pointless as it just results in wheel spin.

Then it makes more sense.

But be aware that it's not nice on your gearbox/clutch/drive shafts. Revving the car up to 4k and dropping the clutch isn't nearly as likely to break things as Revving the car up to 4k, building 20psi and then dropping the clutch.

It's really a show off thing or drag racing thing, other than making turbo noises at the lights or in carparks it has no practical Street use.

4k and full boost yummm.

I attempted learning to do smooth launch 7k drop clutch swiftly.
But still smelt clutch now paranoid about clutch life left.
Anything under 7k i bogged down. May -5 turbos not helping

I hit 300 knock once. 91ron fuel

Good times

Our pumps came with a hex type shape that cracks on the corners and it didn't sit fully on the crank on earlier models so the edges get worn making a loose fit.

I fitted a collar to my crank to rectify but mobs like tomei use a spline instead of the hex

Good times as in rebuild?


Only 1 piston didn't have broken ring lands when I rebuilt but I'm unsure which incident broke them. It was overheated twice. Knocked to 300 once and ran so retarded once that the exhaust manifold snapped,all studs broke, turbo shaft snapped and engine harness melted

But I rebuilt it 3 years after all of these events so it held up well [emoji12]

Wow that a decent effort.
So did you do a spastic rebuild or a normal one.

Same crank, forged JE pistons, spent a heap on port/polish and modifying the head. Tomei cams,springs,exh gear. New turbo and all the associated supporting bits.

Best case should do about 450hp at treads on 98 or into the mid 500's on e85. Hopefully get it going within a week. Needs a new alarm system
Is it worth the money on the head. Coz that the area i 1st want to mod.


It's not one of the things you need to bother with at the power level -5 will give you. Small duration high lift cams are a better spend (~260 deg ~10mm)

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
