Referring to the photo regarding to PFC settings 3. Does any 1 know why my Air Flow settings would have been changed from the default of 100% to 0.0% in all 8 boxes when I was

having every value as 0.0 means correct the load axis to 0

this will make the car run like ass and im surprised it starts

put them all back to 100.0

http://www.paulr33.com/powerfc-emulator/me...t_afm_ramp.html

the value as covered by the pfc hand controller emulator is correction scaling

this influences the final load axis the pfc uses to select IGN/INJ correction off the maps

I have an EL hand controller in my hot little hands.....however both my cars with PFC at at mechanics atm. I am 99% certain it is the same as the old controller, just coloured and ricier.

updated

added confirmation new EL hand controller supported models (all PFC's except for Toyota JZX100 Auto)

awaiting pics from duncan of new EL hand controller

OK, had a chance to have a look. All functions are effectively identical to the normal HC (contrast page is different but has the same purpose).

The firmware is at least a little smarter, my old HC used to come up blank when being used via a PS2 extension cable whereas the EL comes up with "communication error". But all the actual tuning and monitoring functions are the same as the regular HC.

anyway pics are pretty crappy (no interior light in the race car :thanks:)

attached:

serial number

version number screen

start up logo

el contrast control

even so...it is very ricey and I'm not sending it back :down:

question...

I have a pfc numbered: pfc rb25 9810-0049

Now i took the car to be tuned,but the tuners software wouldn't recognize the computer,said i would need a hand commander unit for him to tune it.

So i borrowed a mates commander which was off a pfc numbered:ecr33 and what ever numbers i cant remember,which worked fine.

Now im trying to buy my own commander,just brought one numbered: fcc nt9607-0464....BUT it doesn't work,just goes to the apexi screen and stops there,but from everything ive read,this unit should work...???

Could someone please point me in the right direction..

check your serial #

FCC NT should work on PFC RB25 powerfc

A hand controller from ECR33 serial # powerfc should NOT work on RB25 PFC serial # as they are different models

ie

PFC RB25 needs FCC N001 which is FCC NT

PFC ECR33 needs FCC X001 which is FCC2 or FCC3

you can buy the new EL version which will work

tryed the hand controller again,with the same result...

Pulled the cover off my pfc and stick on the chip was: fc rb25-2

So i dont know whats up other than buying the new el model..

very frustrating

if you said you used a mates hand controller and he has PFC ECR33 serial # then yours is labelled wrong

its the only thing that makes sense or its a non-std powerfc or something else is wrong

N001 or FCC NT should work on PFC RB25 XXXXXX

X001 or FCC3 should work on PFC ECR33 XXXXXX

the first two digits of the serial # is the build year

so yours was built in 1998 apparently

Has anyone had this type of problem before?? My 33GTR Powerfc Pro is not linking up with my handcontroller or FC datalogit. My GTR has a normal FC running at the moment so i know the hand controller and datalogit are fine, but the pro wont link up although starts the car and runs, abit rough as its a unknown tune from the prevous owner... When i purchased the pro 3years ago, i hooked it up and everything worked fine, i varified it was the PRO and let it sit ever since... Anyone had a similar issue??

i have a PFC pro have had no such drama's mine was brand new

maybe try a full INIT

Thanks for the reply madaz i cant get into the menu to init it unforuntely its funny it worked fine a few years back now nothing...

    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.  
    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
