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:

Thanks HEaps mate!!!!!!! ill give that a go, i was going to leave real early one morning! and take a mate and a set of spark plugs with me and of course the appropriate tools for the job!

Thanks RB power, ill try them at 65%

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

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
