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 ;/

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
