Hey, I really Really need some help to get my car running well enough to get it to the tune shop!

My setup is RB20DET, HKS 2530, Power FC, RX7 460cc Red top injectors, Z32 AFM, Walbro 255HP Fuel pump! And the normal stuff, FM Intercooler, 3" Exhaust, HKS pod, HKS BOV!

What injectors % should i be running and air flow %???? Ive tried trimming the map down as it seems to be too rich! but still the idle is up and down and it just isnt right!

Could someone check on their car with a simpair setup! Any help would be much appreciated as my babys been off the road for 6 months now and finnally everythings modified ready to go now!

Thanks

- Luke!

choose z32 80mm afm in the airflow setting menu and leave at 100% air flow......u can pull abit out the injectors..... had my car running on 94% with gtr injectors to get it to the workshop....was running like a hairy goat. Other option is to use ur NRMA road service if you have and arragnge a tow truck......helped me out once or twice.

Let the tuner worry about the idle....thats what your paying him for.

Thanks for your reply, i have changed it to Z32 AFM, also the tuner is 4 hours drive away, so as you can imagine i wanna get the AF ratio as close as i can, so i dont foul up or melt plugs on the drive there, it wouldnt be fun changing the plugs on the side of the road...:rofl:

The PFC will be in closed loop at normal temperature idle, so if the idle speed is jumping around it's not the tune. Usual problem is vacuum leak. So triple check all of the hoses.

Getting a modified car to idle is sometimes harder than getting power out of it. After you have checked all of the connections I strongly suggest you forget about tuning the idle and move on . The PFC will also run closed loop for cruise, so it will get the A/F ratios OK for that. Check how it runs on light throttle, it may take a few minutes to learn. Thne a 4 hour drive should be a doddle, just don't do it in peak hour (leave home at 2 am) and don't get out of cruise mode (resist the temptation).

Hope that helps:cheers:

same set up except for Q45 AFM ... i run mine at 50%  

200Kw here they come !!  

good luck :D

Hey, Does that mean you have 460cc Rx7 injectors?

If so is there any chance you could check out what the injector % is set to? and the pulse rate of the injectors...thanks!

As far as i know S5 RX7 injectors are actually 550cc ... not 100% sure tho

and they are set at 50% duty.. now the column next to it is set at 0.00ms through all 6.

hope that helps

      Are you an oil nerd?

      I think the concept is highlighting the various scenarios where thicker oil helps, and thicker oil potentially doesn't help and only generates heat and costs power, in turn for safety which isn't actually any safer (unless you're going real hot). If anything this does highlight why throwing Castrol 10w-60 for your track days is always a solid, safe bet.

      Jason should have shown a real viscosity vs temp chart. All the grades have very little viscosity difference at full operating temperature.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Yep, if you are applying filler it sounds like there is something wrong with the body lol. Safe to assume there is going to be a lot of sanding going on if your still applying fillers.  Picture a perfect bare metal panel, smooth as glass. You lay down your primer, it's perfect. (why are you going to sand it?) You lay down the colour and clear, it's perfect. No sanding at all took place and you've got a perfectly finished panel.  You won't be chasing your tail, sounds like you were prepping to start laying filler. If your happy with the body after the sanding, there is some bare metal exposed and some areas with primer, no issues at all, start laying the filler. You are safe to lay filler on bare metal or primer (of course check your technical data sheet as usual for what your filler is happy to adhere to).  This isn't a 100% correct statement. There is primer that is happy to adhere to smooth bare metal. There are fillers that are happy to adhere to smooth bare metal. Just make sure you're using the right materials for the job.  Typically if you are using filler, you would go primer, colour and clear. I've never seen any instances before where someone has laid colour over body filler (maybe this happens, but I haven't seen it before). So your plan sounds pretty normal to me.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I don't think there's any way someone is push starting this car.. I honestly can barely move it, and moving it and steering it is just flat out not possible. I'm sure it is, but needs a bigger man than me. I have a refurbished starter now. The starter man was quite clear and consise showing me how nothing inside a starter really should contribute to slow cranking, and turned out that for the most part... my starter was entirely fine. Still, some of the wear items were replaced and luckily it didn't show any signs of getting too hot, being unfit for use, etc. Which is 'good'. I also noticed the starter definitely sounded different, which is a bit odd considering nothing should have really changed there.... Removed and refit, and we'll pretend one of the manifold bolts didn't fully tighten up and is only "pretty" tight. GM only wants 18ft/lb anyway. I also found a way to properly get my analog wideband reading very slightly leaner than the serial wideband. There's Greg related reasons for this. The serial output is the absolute source of truth, but it is a total asshole to actually stay connected and needs a laptop. The analog input does not, and works with standalone datalogging. Previously the analog input read slightly richer, but if I am aiming at 12.7 I do not want one of the widebands to be saying 12.7 when the source of truth is 13.0. Now the source of truth will be 12.65 and the Analog Wideband will read 12.7. So when I tune to 12.7 it'll be ever so slightly safer. While messing with all of this and idling extensively I can confirm my car seems to restart better while hot now. I did add an old Skyline battery cable between the head and the body though, though now I really realise I should have chosen the frame. Maybe that's a future job. The internet would have you believe that this is caused by bad grounds. In finding out where my grounds actually were I found out the engine bay battery post actually goes to the engine, as well as a seperate one (from the post) to the body of the car. So now there's a third one making the Grounding Triangle which is now a thing. I also from extensive idling have this graph. Temperature (°C) Voltage (V) 85 1.59 80 1.74 75 1.94 70 2.1 65 2.33 60 2.56 55 2.78 50 2.98 45 3.23 40 3.51 35 3.75 30 4.00   Plotted it looks like this. Which is actually... pretty linear? I have not actually put the formula into HPTuners. I will have to re-engage brain and/or re-engage the people who wanted more data to magically do it for me. Tune should be good for the 30th!
