Hey Blukie - did you figure this out.  I have standard ECU but getting a cut about the same boost level...

Benl,

this behaviour is normal for the standard computer. The standard computer knows that once 10 PSI is achieved to "cut" the ignition to save the turbo from failure. Because I now have a PFC, mt understanding is that you cut "override" this feature, I just don't know how. Otherwise you can buy what is know as a "fuel cut defender".,

get it re-tune... my tuner set a boost cut on my computer just to save the life of my turbo.. my car is set to 10psi-- at my current setup..that's all i need,..he will tune it up again once i get my new turbo and other stuff.

so yeah..just tell your tuner to allow higher boost.

Hi, just got myself a PFC and my car seems to still cut out when boost exceeds 10 PSI. I thought this "Fuel cutout" was non existent with Power FC's. Is there a particular map I must go to and "correct" this ???????

What car is this?

Power FC's have no excessive airflow protection.

They have no rich and retard programming like the standard ecu.

Get it tuned:cheers:

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).

      EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
