Hi all,

Quick question regarding the Power FC boost control kit...

I've just bought the kit that was previously on an sr20 which has a factory boost solenoid..

Now I want to install the kit onto an rb20. The Apexi Solenoid has a positive and negative wires which I need to run to the power fc, the only thing is I'm not sure where to...

I believe it goes to the plug next to the hand controller as there are 5 wire slots available and three go to the boost reader(Sensor)...

IE...

SOLENOID PRESSURE SENSOR

FREE FREE BLACK GREEN RED

Can someone tell me, who's using a power fc that didn't have a factory solenoid where the aftermarket solenoid goes to...

IE...

SOLENOID PRESSURE SENSOR

GROUND POSITIVE BLACK GREEN RED WIRES...

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me :P

Cheers

Dan

i think i am after the same info

but not sure

I currently have a PowerFC in my RB20... but using a Greddy boost controller.

I have a mate who has the boost solenoid from an AVCR which i hear is exactly the same as the one from the PowerFC Boost Control Kit, and i want to connect it up to my FC..

But it only has wires coming off the solenoid. with no plug. so i need to find out where the wires from the solenoid connect onto the PowerFC. like the exact pins..

Cheers :(

I have an SR20 so hopefully is similar. The 2 wires from the apexi solenoid need to be connected to the wiring for your FACTORY solenoid (as PFC uses the stock wiring loom to adjust it, the factory solenoid is then redundant).

The apexi pressure sensor then plugs directly into the PFC unit (next to the HC plug).

There are 2 "versions" of PFC, each uses different boost kit (the wiring from the sensor is different), older version has 3 pins/wires, newer version 5 pins/wires.

Hope that helps.

The RB20 Power FC wasn't really designed for use with the Boost Control Kit, but you can use it. The RB20 (R32 GTST) PFC is basically the same as the R32 GTR PFC, but AP Enginnering modified it to work on the RB20. That is why it still has inlet temperature correction (like an R32 GTR) even though RB20 's don't have an inlet temp sensor.

Enough history, how do you connect it....

RB20's have a standard map sensor, so you don't have to connect up the one that comes with the Boost Control Kit.

If you look at the pin outs on the standard R32 GTR ECU, you can see the wires for the standard boost control solenoid. The pin out is basically the same on the R32 GTST, there is just no wires for the boost control solenoid becuase R32 GTST's don't have them. That is where the Boost Control Kit is wired into the Power FC.

Hope that is of some help.:cheers:

Thanks heaps for the replys :P

The sr20 boost kit has a plug for 5wires that fits into the FC, ie next to where the hand controller fits, however the FC for the Rb requires a plug for 3 wires... So thats definetly where the Map sensor would be wired to...

As for the solenoid, thanks heaps sydneykid :(

I have all the pinouts and wiring diagrams for the RB20DET, but having trouble finding a pinout diagram for the RB26DETT. Anyone able to help me with a site or a copy.

Also have an air temp sensor here that im hooking up to the PFc, so need to know which pins are for the boost control solenoid and air temp sensor?

Thanks ppl:thumbsup:

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
