I'm installing a 25/30 using a powerfc into the 240 and have a few questions hopefuly someone might be able to answer...

1 Does a powerfc control air con, I'm not using air so will any problems arise?.

2 What else does the powerfc control beside the engine management?

3 Can these other items controlled by the powerfc be turned off?

4 What kind of signal does the rb25det manual speed sensor produce?

5 Does the signal run from the sensor, through the dash speedo then to the ecu?

6 Is the signal multiplied or divided along the circuit?

PS: Using the hand controller :D

cheers some good reliable info there, actually its more than I needed but thats a good thing. I like this...

Are there any cool tricks with the PowerFC? Free mods etc?

A handy trick PowerFC owners use when they take car in for a service/work to be done they set the rev limit to 3000rpm and remove the hand

controller. This prevents the workshop from taking your car out for a fang on the roads and driving it like they've stolen it as the PowerFC

will cut the power at the 3000rpm rev limit interrupting the joy experienced by the joy rider of your precious car

      I refer you to this thread on PF, by someone who knows what he's doing. Paints a good picture of the humble AD09.

      I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.

      Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!

      I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
