^^ there is no difference i have personally taken a PFC out of a S2 R33 and put it in my S1 R33 the differences are with the turbo on the engine and igniter's on the coil packs for the S2 the actual ECU handles the engine the same way

hey thanks man for clearing that up for me, good to know that someone has tried it too, so once again thank you, you are a legend :)

Had a search through this thread and cant find an answer, basically i have just had my power fc installed and instead of having to take the kick panel off every time i want to check something through the hand controller i would like to leave it in the glove box, is there anyway to lock the keypad so that buttons dont get pushed by other things in the glove box?

Hi

just after some help from anyone

I just got the power fc boost control kit for my car.. its the right one the A001 or whatever.... Now i know the map/pressure sensor plugs straight into the power fc, but where do i plug the actual solinoid into?

From what ive managed to find it seems as though on an RB25 you plug it into the stock wiring loom where the stock boost solinoid went, but i was under the impression that this provided constant power but no earth till the car hit 4500 rpm... Can anyone else help me out with this?

car is 1994 R33 GTS-t With Power FC (standard) and hand controller. PM's welcome :)

Cheers

Callan

W0rp3D - hand controller is fine to go in the glove box

Boostin96 - the plug goes straight into the standard boost solenoid plug its near your power steering reservoir

Cheers mate

so is this pin on The ecu slightly different to what it does on the stock ecu?

cause i thought it just earthed at 4500rpm?

ahh i see

so it basically serves a different purpose going from std ecu to power fc

eg. Stock ecu - earth at 4500rpm

Power FC - open solenoid at x amount of boost

or something along those lines anyway.....

Cheers for the help :P

Anyone else know anymore?

I'm fairly happy that that is right but cause its the same thing that i was gathering from pauls FAQ and a few other posts

just wanted to make sure it was a different function on the power fc

Hey i was jsut wondering quickly..

Is there anyway that a Power FC is avaliable for the R32 RB20DE (NA) at all??

Or if they are avaliable? ( Because i have heard that they are Very rare to get :S)

Thanks!

SLi32

its covered in the FAQ

there is no N/A version for R32 - you would need to buy R32 RB20 PFC, which is ap engineering

it will need to tuned before it will start correctly, as it will assume GTST AFM, Injectors and engine maps

that being said, you could correct it manually on the hand controller to make it start and drive OK

then you could drive to the tuners if it was a long way away or you couldnt wait

Hi Paul,

Ok, so I got my R33 RB25DET back from the tuner with a new turbo installation with the following:

Garrett 3037 turbo

Top mount manifold

SARD 550cc Injectors

Bosch 023 Fuel Pump

FMIC

Profec B Spec II BC

PFC

and more supporting mods...

Although they done a good job with the turbo/piping installation, the tune im not too happy with and need some advice on.

My problem is, when my car is cold, the revs surge from around 1300 to 1800rpm (this goes away when the car warms up), the tuner said he had no idea why this is happening and mentioned that the PFC doesnt have a cold start tuning option (if this makes any sense)?

The other thing he said was at high revs it knocked too much, so he reduced the timing right down to around 15deg IGN timing and now its very sluggish. He said that getting a high flow cat might fix this problem?

Im not too cluey when it comes to tuning and ECUs, so if you could shed some light on this situation it would be appreciated.

Cheers.

Mick

PS. I just checked the Injector latencies on your PFC docs, and im not sure if the tuner set mine correctly, they read 70% and -1.30ms, souldnt they be 67% and +0.052 for SARD 550cc in RB25DET?

very quick question

got mt PFC installed into my R34, ever since then my engine light wont go off the dash :) asked the tuner he said it's running fine etc and has no idea why it wont go away, he said the only time it goes away is when he loads a fresh map onto it but then comes back straight away ?

    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
