Hi Guys,

New to the forum, Owner of a 1995 R33 GTR V Spec.

Having abit of trouble setting up Nismo AFM's and 900cc Delphi Injectors(Only just installed)

Previously had 448.9hp at the wheels with Nismo 600cc injectors and standard AFM's

I think my dramas maybe with the HKS evc-s boost controller (I hate the thing!)

does anyone have any advise or tips to setting up the boost controller correctly, currently gets to 21.8psi and goes crazy.

and or are the 900cc injectors over kill for this set up? I still have the nismo injectors so can put them back in if needed.

Modifications are

3.5" full system turbo back,

Forged built engine - CP Pistons & Spool Rods

Nismo AFM's

Delphi 900cc Injectors

HKS 272 Cams

Ported Head

HKS 1.5mm Head gasket

Garret 2860-5 Turbos

Apexi Power FC With hand controller

Tomei cam gears

Split Fire Coil Packs

ARP Bolts throughout

walbro 460 fuel pump

Tomei 1.5mm Block oil restrictor

any advise would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers Ben

The PowerFC needs to be setup properly for the AFMs and Injectors too as Grant said otherwise funny shit can happen. Get the tuner to have a fiddle with the controller once fuel/timing is sorted to try and hold a constant desired boost level as each controller is a bit different and can take some time to get it working properly.

Not sure what you mean exactly after 21.8psi it goes crazy. 22psi for that motor/setup is perfectly fine, a graph or any information on what is happening can help. Torque or power curve dropping off? Boost dropping off?

The EVC just controls boost

The PFC controls everything else.

So if you have a boost issue, it's the EVC. If it's anything else, that can only bee the way the setup is in the PFC or something else is up the creek like fuel pressure (if it's fine to a certain point of 21.8 and goes wild for example).

All of that though, tuner/workshop can easily diagnose... It's basic 101 checking time if that is the case. Gonna be hard over the internet.

    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
