Car is R34 GT-R.

Installed these and car ran briefly with only a correction factor change (set at 48%) but I'm not sure what the latency should be. The car wants to start and almost does.

Other factors to consider, also installed Walbro 460LPH pump with direct battery feed via relay. Have confirmed there's fuel in the rail and that the pump is priming/supplying fuel and getting full voltage.

I bought the set from Kudos which come in a Sonic Performance bag and have part number BSS1000.

Closest I've found is this but I'm not sure what voltage the 34 runs as per that table - http://nyet.org/cars/info/ev14-latency/1000cc.png

Why?

Or, organise the tuner to come to you and set the settings and do some road tuning before the dyno.

Or, drive to tuner on current injectors and baby the car. Change injectors there. Retune.

do you have a wideband?

scale the injectors to the right percentage then set the fuel map where it idles at around 100, now adjust the latency on the fly till the idle afr is at around stoich

Take into account the injectors are not connected to the same pump as before on same voltage now.

Your new pump is hard-wired to battery now meaning the first 2 load cells @ idle will need even less duty cycle again as the squirter is under more rail pressure now.

Latency settings need to be correct before starting the car.

Your plugs will now be wet.

I Wouldn't be touching a single adjustment on a ecu without wideband connected.

It's like crossing the motorway blindfolded.

I got the car started last night after leaving it for a while, but I put the PFC settings back to where they were - which should have been way too rich. It didn't want to rev cleanly and would hunt after dropping back down from revs. I turned it off and the penny dropped. These are high impedance injectors...

Is there a generally accepted way to remove the resistor block?

Just to get it to the tuner. No big deal if I can't will tow it. I always like to have a go where possible.

I wouldn't think it would have any effect other than giving less voltage due to increased resistance in the circuit. (My ohm's law memory is sketchy but I thought higher resistance meant less voltage and given the injectors are being fed through the resistor block, will be seeing less voltage than they want).

Which will be why the car actally ran with the injector percentage scaler put back to stock in the PowerFC.

When I spoke to Sonic Performance they said it won't have caused any damage but the injectors won't flow properly until the resistor is removed.

Ahh, lower current not voltage. cheers.

Either way, less amps isn't going to "hurt" the injectors as far as I'm aware?

Read that something fried on an RX7 doing the same thing I think they fried the ECU not sure how but I read it last week on the RX7 forum it was in regards to the ballast resistor someone left it in when they should have removed it.

I don't believe that statement is correct... the job of the fuel pressure regulator (FPR) is to control rail pressure.

Regardless of what the fuel pump OR fuel pressure being pushed into the rail, the FPR will control the rail pressure to maintain 3 bar of fuel pressure going into the motor (taking into account the plenum vac/pressure).

The only instance where the fuel pressure is all over the shop (using the factory regular) is when there's so much flow it cannot return fuel quick enough.. usually caused by running surge tank setups with twin pumps.

Can't imagine it doing damage to components, injectors may not operate 100% properly maybe?

The resistor pack was just to fool the ecu thinking it was driving high impedance injectors. It was the fashion at the time.

you are right. I went back to edit my brain fart but I'm flat out busy at work right now ;/

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
