Hi all,

need to know what version of software the 32 GTSt PFC is ( AP Engineering version)

Need to know, as I am looking at getting the FC-logit software and there site lists the FC-logit software as being the same for all FC operated R32/33/34 GTS's, but they don't know for sure without me giving them the software version

From what I have been told, look under etc->sw version, you will see for example RB25DET v3.11. I am not sure what the RB20 PFC version is as I won't have mine for another week, and need to find out ASAP

Thanks in advance,

Chris

many versions for all models. My R33 powerfc is 2.20E, while most are 5.13, 5.20 etc... Also, mine can be read with the GT-R datalogit software. But in the end we downloaded my rom, sent it to datalogit, then they sent back a dat file to use with my specific ECU. took 2 weeks to get the file. Hope that helps in some way.

Hi Chris, I am in Perth for 2 weeks so I can't just pop into the workshop and check the numbers for you. But both myself and Targa Tom are using Datalogit with our R32 GTST PFC's. I sent my PFC to Datalogit for 2 weeks last year and they used mine to write/check the software. Tell them to send you the same versions as they sent us.

Hope that helps :D

Power FC has arrived, and I plugged it in last night - stupid thing is I forgot to take note of the version :Oops:

Will have another look tonight and send them a email to confirm

The plan is for me anyway is to go halves with a mate who has a R33 with a PFC, but not sure if the software will work on both yet., so we can both use the data logging at drags and track days etc

I am going to pop around to Tilbrooks over here, as they have the GTR and GTS software, if it works, then I will look at getting it.

For someone who has no idea about tuning, the software is pretty expensive, as you cannot make full use of it

If I had my own dyno and AFR meter, sure, it would be worth it.

Still tossing up who to tune it, Tilbrooks with the laptop software (if it works) or Boostworx via the hand controller.........

What does everyone reckon?

The FC-logit software has data logging functions, it also allows you to save various maps onto your PC and load them, rather than have to re-do the whole thing via the hand controller which takes ages. It also allows it to be tuned via a laptop rather than the hand controller, and there are a few more functions that you can access from what I can gather

Will look at both places when the time comes, but Shaun has produced the goods with so many cars of late its hard to ignore. Tilbrooks, well I have had the majority of my stuff done there in the past ( before the Mick Dynasty :P ) and Mark is a top bloke and looked after me in the past

Let me know how much it costs, im starting to get a little gun shy at the cost of it all, PFc + hand controller $1440, $300 for AFM and $500 for tune. So Total $2240 and no laptop software, im guessing with Datalogit all up close to 3K...

You don't NEED the Commander if you have a Datalogit system. But I like them anyway, because they save more than their cost on extra gauges and for quick diagnosis they are hard to beat. ;)

Yeah, after a short drive, I can see the knock sensor and water temp becoming quite handy ;) Great for a quick reference to see how everything is, would be good for a track day so you can see how hot your motor is running.

Pity it doesn't have air inlet temp as well, that would be just fantastic

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
