Injector compensation on PFC ??

B-man, what rail pressure are you running? this will make a difference.

EG, sard 550cc injectors are rated at 3.0kg rail pressure, at 2.55kg (stock nissan) they are only 510cc.

your formula is basically correct though.

Also, make sure you adjust injector lag time. If you are running Sard 550cc, it is around +0.08ms

how is the idle going? - I forgot to mention on your idle question thread, but have you tried lubricating the AAC vavle? I sprayed a fair bit of WD40 around the adjust screw and it certainly helped (wound in the adjust until the valve was working overtime to control idle, left it go for about a minute, then would the screw back out and it settle things a fair bit:))

Sorry to dig up such a old thread

Where is the injector correction located on the hand controller?

I am installing some 440cc into my R32 and need to change the injector correction so its at least drivable to get it tuned?

My plan is set the PFC to default, and then add the injector correction so it will hopefully be drivable

Any info much apprieceated

Mine is at 60% Chris and I'm sure it is on standard fuel pressure coz I set the nismo fuel reg at stock pressure,that is unless when I got it tuned they wound more into it.

What I noticed with the standard tune on the PFC and gtr injectors was it ran very very rich and did'nt mind the extra fuel when cold but as soon as it got some heat into it it missed coughed and spluttered and stalled.

So as a fix so I could get it to the tuning shop I went into the ign/inj correction settings and put the inj to 0.650 and it was still rich but safe to drive.

R31 is on the money, the INJ/IGN is the one you want - just divide the stock injector capacity with the new injector capacity, the resultant 0.xx will equate to the percentage you will need.

Also, you have an "injector" menu, you need to put in the correction there too - this is for closed loop (idle, cruise) and cold start correction - you will also see a lag correction, if you have a look here: http://www.ap-engineering.co.jp/el/inj_top.htm from memory they have the lag times and injector capacities for stock (and aftermarket) injectors including the relevant fuel rail pressures. The lag correction is to make sure the injectors fire at the right time.

Most tuners I have been to dont even seem to realise it is there, but it made a big difference to idle and cruise with my 550cc.

Oh, and lastly, the IGN/INJ correction is volatile, so when you stop the car, you will have to re-enter the correction until it is tuned. Its a very handy feature for the ign side of things too - if detonation is up a bit, on a hot day, bad fuel whatever, just pull a degree or two across the map to prevent expensive problems.

Dont be scared to do the correction and drive the car - just dont thrash it :P and keep an eye on the knock.

Cheers guys, looks like a work around thats not too hard

At least it should get me to the dyno etc

I just found a english PFC hand controller manual which takes you through pretty much everyhting you need to know, i will post a link when i can find it again!

That's good but unfortunately as it's for a 13B a lot of the stuff isn't relavent. Does anyone have one for the RB26DETT?

Richard

Apparently thats the only full english manual out, as it was done for the american market

Let me know if you find any other manuals

There are quite a few on www.apexi-usa.com

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it.

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
