Before i take it to a tuner...just got a power fc second hand from another r33 skyline...ive noticed it was mapped for a vg30 airlow meter when i started her up...it didnt want to idle....i changed it to the coresponding AFM and she started beautifully...i also noticed the car was completly cold and it didnt give me that warm up rev? (that higher than usual rev like normal ecus do... is this normal for a PFC?) and another thing once it acutally warmed up... i took it round the block for a drive and everthing seemed fine....switched her off and tried to start it and she wouldnt start again? :confused:

Any PFC gurus out there that could possibly figure this one out? as its all new to me and any info would be greatly appreciated :headspin: :headspin: :)

its always fun picking ur brain sydneykid :)

what compensations would u have to make if i have a slightly higher comp then normal, larger injectors, cams etc in terms of fuel.. more? or less? or it should run?

it was a tune form croydon.... i wouldnt want to throw away the $800 the other fellow paid do i? :wassup:

Worth a try, first job is to list his mods side by side with yours. If there are too many differences it is usually better to staret from scratch (ie; the default Apexi maps).

In the second menu from the top you'll have to change the settings to 4 door mode aswell to compensate for the extra weight :D

Thanks for the tip....:)

whilst playing with the hand controller next to the function for extra doors............ i saw a function saying VL goodness please select :shake: :shake:

:jump:

Do you know the exact mods that the other car had, Steve?

Put yours on one side and their's on the other and let us have a look at it. If they're vastly different, i reckon it's probably best to reset it back to factory....oh and don't forget to turn the Apexi Boost Control setting off.

Oh and cut off those unneseccary doors, dude.

    • So I actually had the cover off my car today, here is a (bad) pic of the setup. I have an oil cooler thermostat block, the temp sender is straight in there. The pressure sender has a short AN line to a T piece which is mounted (hopefully cable tied counts as mounted....) on the chassis. BTW every fitting you could ever imagine exists....just depends what they cost and how many you need. Raceworx AN adapters are here: https://raceworks.com.au/fittings/adapters/, I think you said you need BSPT to AN (https://raceworks.com.au/fittings/adapters/bsp/tapered/an-to-bspt-adapters/) and AN to NPT (https://raceworks.com.au/fittings/adapters/npt/) BTW, braided line is super simple to make. It looks intimidating, is not.
    • Perfect day for a pie, really needs a soft top in this weather though
    • Prime parking, she is a little girl...LOL
    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
