what software do you have and what cable is it? is it the apexi fc pro software? or datalogit? are you using the datalogit cable/kit or the official apexi one? you can't use the fc datalogit cable/kit with the fc pro software and vice versa. are u connecting it a laptop or computer? it should be whatever com port the cable is plugged into. if you are pluggin into a laptop using a serial to usb converter try a normal pc with a standard com port instead. let us know how u go, keen to see your results

you can't use the apexi box (as in the one that comes as the new package offered by apexi) and the apexi fc pro software (most likely on this site). they use a different cable somehow and aren't interchageable. the apexi cable u have should have come with software

yeah the program you download is for the apexi cable, sold as the package so its the right software and it should work. hmm wonder what the error means? have you tried the apexi fc pro software it may give a different error or something? even those its not supposed to work... have u tried fc ping or fc probe? both are on my site... if they work then you can communicate to the powerfc correctly

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
