Paul,

Would a dodgy AFM cause major knocking in the range of 70-90?

unlikely so i would say no, read the PFC FAQ

theres lots of topics covering knocking and how to test and deal with it

Does a power fc'd skyline need regular "tuning", like changing the oil every 5000 ks?

of course

normal maitenance should still apply for the car

if the car is putting out significantly more power than std more attention should be given to service intervals and quality of fluids, items used etc

Is there a way of disabling one cylinder through the power fc making the whole engine run on 5 cylinders?

Went to get my car tuned, but they never tuned it as my engine was running 5 cylinders.

there is no such feature, the only way you could achieve this would be to unplug one of the coil pack leads

Hey paul,

I've notcied that on my powerfc controller that my knock "figure" has disappeared... I still get the knock bar I just dont get the knock value. Any suggestions?

This problem only happened when i was driving home in flooded roads and I had hit something which made a pretty big thump but at low speed (mabye 10-20km/h) which has then caused my immobiliser light to come on whilst driving and now my alarm/immobiliser doesnt work.... Would this have something to do with the missing knock figure because I havent touched the pfc controller since I got it tuned...

Hey guys i have just put a power FC In my R33 and i am having trouble with the fuel and ignition map when i adjust them and then select previous and exit the maps then return to the maps the adjustments i made are gone just wondering if any one can help me

when viewing knock in 1 CHANNEL display press UP for digital top score

i've replied to your pm - when you edit a value on the INJ or IGN map you need to confirm the change with NEXT (PREV will back the change out)

so edit the value, press NEXT and it will save the change you have made

front mount plenum

KKR480

intercooler

full hightflow exhaust

injectors maf and pump is stock

so here is my problem i cant close westgeit because of othervise boost goes up now i have arraund 15PSI but turbo opens at 4500 RPM and eache run up i have erraund 90 knock, fc is absolutly not tuned just moving timing at 6 degrees and thats all

if you can help or give some nmaps that i could enter in fc it could be great or suggest someone who can help me... car is runing well its much faster than M5 E60 but still FC isnot tuned and i know its not good for engine

Please Help

Any other recommendations for a unstable and sometimes high idle (1000rpm)

I have leaned the idle right out and it definately helps when rolling to the lights as before it used to rev up and down. Now at idle, sometimes its fine at 700rpm but generally its around 900/1000rpm and sometimes back to 700rpm, but the majority of the time its high, seems to have a mind of its own.

Any recommendations as i dont want to reset it.

Hey,

With a r32 gtst and rb26dett ecu.. I am having troubles with speed read out. It sais up to 900km per hour when only doing 100 sometimes it works good and others none at all. Any idea??

when you encounter the high RPM issue check out SENSOR SW CHECK and see if anything out of the ordinary happens

maybe leave that screen open and watch if you see the issue about to occur

other than that all i can suggest is maybe clean AAC, check leaks etc, check TPS, check throttle body

read the nissan service manual for idle related issues and lastly a reset as a last resort (get someone to copy the tune before you do)

Not sure if this has been asked but I don't have time to read through 21 pages so...

Can the 3 or 5 pin harness for the boost reading work on any pfc or just the d-jetro? Also, what else do I need to hook it up apart from this harness? Vacuum hose etc??

hello stranger

:P Small world isnt it!

Im quite sure you can use the boost reading on any pfc. I know mine is 3 pin and the socket is on the back somewhere. In my pfc boost controll kit it came with the sensor, which is wired in and hooked up to the manifold pressure. Im unsure of the signal type this sensor uses and what else you could use but i imagine there'd be something else out there. . . .

    • LOL.... a good amount of people (not all) on that continent seem to know everything and like to measure things in bananas, football fields, statue of liberties instead of the metric system lol.
    • I assume the modules are similar enough, so if you've had no issues I don't see why I would. I have tried to find a wiring diagram for the FPCM / fuel pump circuit, but I can't find it anywhere. Otherwise, I would just do some wire cutting and joining at the FPCM and give the 12 V supplied to the FPCM directly to the pump instead. If you know anyone that could help with wiring diagrams, I'd be very happy  
    • If it dies, then bypass. The task isn't difficult. I have one running on a standard R32 FPCM. That's after nearly 20 years of it running an 040, which pull substantially more current than the Walbro. They're not the same module, but I'd hope it indicates that the R33 one should be man enough for the job. I think people kill them when putting proper sized pumps on them, not these little toy pumps we're talking about here.
    • Silicone spray won't hurt anything. And if it does, that's an opportunity to put some solid steel spherical bushings in, so you can really learn what suspension noise sounds like, If you're going to try it, just spray one bush at a time, so you can work out which one is actually noisy. My best guess is that if the noise started only since putting the coilovers in, then it is just noise being transmitted up through the top mounts of the struts, and not necessarily "new" noise from bushes. But it's almost impossible to know.
    • Are you saying the 34 is SUV height, and not that we're talking about an SUV here? (because if we're talking about an SUV, you don't fix them. You just replace them when something breaks. Not worth establishing sufficient emotional connection with an SUV to warrant doing any work on one). I wouldn't jack my car up on a short little loop of 10mm steel rod poking out through a hole in the bumper bar, front or rear end. I realise that we're probably not talking about that type of loop at the front, being the one under/behind the bar on a Skyline.... but even for that one, trying to jack up on what amounts to a thin piece of steel, designed purely for withstanding a horizontal tension force, not a vertical compressive force (and so would be prone to buckling/crushing) and, my most particular bitch about it - located RIGHT AT THE EXTREME FRONT OF THE CAR, applying a load up through the radiator support panel, etc, with almost the entire mass of the car cantilevered between there and the rear wheels? Nope. Not doing that. Not on the regular. That structure out there in front of the front crossmember is not designed to carry load in the vertical direction. Not really designed to carry any load at all, really. The chassis rail that the tow point is connected to would be fine loaded in tension, as per towing. Not intended to carry the mass of the whole car, especially loaded all on one rail, with twisting and all sorts of shitty load distribution going on. No, I will happily drive up on some pieces of wood, thanks. That can only happen on driven wheels, and they are at the other end of the car, and this problem does not exist at that end of the car. And even then, I have been known to drive up on at least 1x piece of 2x8 each side at the rear, simply to reduce the amount of jack pumping necessary to get the car up high enough for the jack stands. What really really shits me about Skylines is the lack of decent places for chassis stands at either end of the car. You'd think they'd be designed into the crossmembers.
