PFC HELP reward offered possibly alcoholic (If that is your thing)

[Bunta]

Hi all. I am trying to find out if the PFC is compatible with my A-LSD on my R33 GTS-T. I have searched the treads and come up with no conclusion, It works for some and not for others :confused:. So does any one with a PFC want to come to my place (or me to yours) and plug their PFC into my car and see if I get a LSD error or not, I really want to put this issue to bed! As stated earlier reward offered :uh-huh: Thanks guys!

[NismoGirl]

Did you ring Gav?

[Bunta]

That is my plan at lunch today

[Bunta]

Any one??? Please!! reward still on offer name the price

[NismoGirl]

I would, but we are heading off to Cairns next thursday and wouldn't want to take the chance or anything going wrong with the car.

Sorry!

[Bunta]

Thanks for that. Im in no real hurry, Maybe when you get back??? I tried to ring gav but my work phone has a STD bar on it. Damm stingy work :chairshot

[ImpulR33R]

my brother has the same problem. We tried on the weekend, series 1 r33 gtst with ALSD, plugged a brand new PFC in and the pfc wont communicate with an alsd, switches to fault mode and will only spin one wheel. Your best option would be to get an emanage, as its a piggy back system. any questions feel free to pm me.

[Bunta]

Yeah this is my whole problem Many peoples dont work but Erins works fine :confused: So I want to see if I am one of the lucky ones or if I will have to go to the emanage/Profec e-01 combo

[GTRgeoff]

Andrew, it's ben covered recenly in NSW. Moanie and a few others tried it and it won't work.

Sorry for the bad news mate. I don't know how Erin got by though.

[Bunta]

Yeah I was talking to moanie a bit the other day. I read that tread and the fault seemed to range from noting at all, to light on occasionally but diff working, to diff open wheeling :confused:. That is why I want to give it a go on mine and see what happens. I might be one of the lucky ones. I dont want to fork out the cash for one only to have to try and sell it the same day I get it as it doesnt work. I am seriously thinking about Emanage instead of experimenting just to save some stuffing around!

[NismoGirl]

I'll have an answer to all your queries on Monday

[Bunta]

OOOOH thanks HEAPS Erin. The first time I will be looking forward to a Monday for quite some time

[NismoGirl]

I've been advised not to remove the computer from my car anyway... for different reasons.

But I would say at this point in time, order it and take the car to Gav to have it fitted. Ultimately it's up to you, but if he can get mine and others working, I doubt he'd have an issue with yours

[Bunta]

So there is others with A-LSD who got it installed at Gavins and it works?

[NismoGirl]

Apparently so, I've just spoken to him and he went back through my invoices and then to the job card to see what he did. But we have to confirm this on Monday to make sure.

[Bunta]

You madam are a champion! Thank you so much. I promise a reward of some kind is coming your way should we ever meet. Thanks heaps

I have an r33 and I have no idea what is ALSD, and I'm running a PFC.

[Bunta]

A-LSD is a Active limited slip differetial. It is computer controled as opposed to the normal methods. You will know if you have one cause when you start the car two orange lights will light up. One says A-LSD the other says slip.

[hungry6]

Ahh, what I though, mine doesn't have it, just the same old lsd job, probably could do with a replacement soon.

[predator]

Personally I'd turf out the old ALSD diff, and get a standard one put in. Plenty of people writing off their R33 lately, shouldn't be too hard to find for $500 or so, maybe less.

I know this seems a bit extreme, but I'd rather be spending a bit more and running full aftermarket management such as proven PowerFC, than just an e-manage. Depends what your goals are for the car.. just a bit more power, or ready for aftermarket turbo, etc later on.
