[GTS4dood]

Morning all,

I just got my power fc today. woo hoo!!! but was surprised at the lack of wiring. infact all thats there is the cable coming off the hand controller. i realise that the unit plugs into the standard loom but i was expecting a cable or something so the unit car sit in the car (passenger floor) is this all thats spose to be in the package???

[cerci]

[GTS4dood]

I found the ap pfc to have much better idle control over the std ecu.

Overall it feels smoother to drive. Strange sensation really.

Now all you need to future proof your mods is a well priced bran spankin new Z32 afm. lol

yeah i want to buy one like right now, but i have absolutely no idea were to get one from. its like NOBODY has one for sale. especially in pretty yellow writing which renders me incapable of saying no. but oh well. maybe one day. hehe

[Cubes]

LMAO.

Looks at my sig..

[cerci]

wtf i want a key ring from apexi to!

[GTS4dood]

im telling ya, u havent lived until you've seen this key ring. as soon as i put it on my key chain 3 lesbian couples appeared on my doorstep wanting to group experiment. and being the nice kinda guy i am i had to help them out. true story.

will the PFC work if you just unplug the factory ecu and plug in the new one? or does it actually require tuning to run?

[Cubes]

It will run fine.

The AP PFC does require a little tweaking of the cranking ms.

From memory the std values are:

80c - 4ms

50c - 8ms

They need to be the same as the rb26 and rb25 values.

being...

80c - 10ms

50c - 13ms

The values below are the same for both the r32 and r33/gtr.

I found it started fine, then pulled over turned the car off and the darn thing wouldn't start, just kicked over and over and over.

Dialed in the rb25/rb26 injector crank ms for 50degree's and 80degree's and it starts first pop every time.

The ap pfc base map will run richon the rb20det, the ign. timing isn't over the top so it shouldn't ping, obviously depending on mods and amount of boost run through what turbo.

Its all very easy.. don't be scared to play, be carefull, not stupid.

Don't fiddle with afr's unless you are running a wideband..

well i just bought an Apexi AVC-r today as im wanting to dial up 12PSI. and along with 3" turbo back zorst, Greddy FMIC, n POD i thought it might be an idea to get the entire thing tuned properly. I've been talking to a dood at UNIGROUP near sydney i think?? hope he does a good job. will be about 2weeks until the AVC-r arrives tho. so a small wait.
