Ive been doing a bit of tuning to my R33 and have noticed when i turn the Air con on the A/F ratio (only at idle) leans out to around 17.1 It is not effecting the A/F ratios anywhere else in the map. Has anyone else every experienced this problem or may know what is causing it?

Thanks

Power FC?

When you first install PFC you're supposed to run idle correction, eg 10 min with A/C on, 10 min with demister, 10 min with both (or something like that). If you didn't run it properly...?

This is just a learning proceedure for idle control vavle. Its just a loop it performs until it determines what the optimal position of the vavle is to acheive the desired idle RPM. It just needs to learn 2 modes neutral AC on and neutral AC off. Its the same proceedure the AU fords use and if its auto it has 4 modes as in neutral AC off and On and Drive AC on and off. Note this proceedure doesn't have anything to do with mixtures.

Chances are you will pull more load with AC on so it look at what cell its on and check the cells around it as it might be interpolating around that cell.

Make sure you tune the with 02 feedback off and once your done turn it back on. Aim for stoic at idle. Drop me a PM if you need some more help.

what are you using to read the A/F

please don't say a turbo timer or af guage off the stock 02 sensor

I am using an auxillary/external 6 wire wideband 02 sensor.

I have got all the equipment to log properly

      I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps

      Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks

      small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛

      Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
