hey paul just wondering how suitable the base map is PFC for R32 GTR.. initially i failed to turn off the ignition after resetting the ecu and car sounded like a WRX and drove like a Lada.. so i reset the ecu again only this time turn ign on/off and did the learning procedure.. still same result.. my only guess is that base map is unsuitable for my car which is close to stock.. i have read on the forum that base maps typically provide lot more power/response through the band unlike stock restricted ecu.. anyone else have similar result?

the base map is fine and should be suitable and smooth to drive

there should be no strange idling, no smoke, no nosise or dash cluster lights on etc

if you have a strange idle i suspect something is wrong

ie: afms busted

wrong injectors

leaking intake piping

dodgy aac valve

etc etc

have u looked in SENSOR SW / CHECK to see if anything is odd ?

i checked sensor sw and everything showed up fine.. car doesnt hunt on idle at all.. no dash lights.. i have stock injectors.. havent checked afm or leaking piping or dodgy aac valve.. car has no pickup at all even wen its floored on 2nd/3rd gear.. boost doesnt build as quickly either.. put my hks kansai modified ecu back on to check if something had crapped out in the meantime but car went hard.. so i figured it was perhaps base map etc.. was wondering whether its possible to lock values via software like datalogit which isnt cleared with the normal ecu reset..

if youve reset it, then it should be back to defaults

the stock maps are prretty good

i wouldnt call them sluggish but fairly good out of the box

to suit most cars and conditions

try

SETTING, IGN MAP

if you see all zero's then its locked

Really don't mean to hijack this thread just out of curiosity. im currently buying an power fc for my rb20 from a mate who has it obviously tuned for his setup. am i able, when i take possession of the power fc, reset it and install it on my car and run it on a factory just like my standard ecu until i can afford a tune?

if so does this same above process work?

Cheers, Adz

no point, it takes 30 seconds to plug in a pfc so leave it in a drawer until you can afford to tune it

im rather curious to see some of the engines imputs. i would like to see injector duty ect. to make sure im not doing any damage to my car in the mean time.. as it is not a stock engine.

And point taken.. but Also i would like to know.. because sooner or later im going to drive it to the mechanics on the power fc. and would rather not like to be on my mates tune on the way there..

    • Hi, does anyone know how I can, or can a moderator remove this advertisement please.  Has been sold a long time ago and would like to remove references. Thanks. 
    • There are adaptors that allow you to delete the booster and use an s15 clutch master cylinder.    if you want to keep the booster they are still available brand new 
    • I visited again today: It would appear they have painted the main body of the car and some parts of some of the panels, so I can say that I now have BMW parts in my car, much to the envy of @Dose Pipe Sutututu It is still covered in dust which is quite the tease but I did look at a few circumspect spots that will be behind bumpers and such and wiped some dust away: After my repeated begging to PLEASE DONT PAINT OVER THE ENGINEERING CERTIFICATE (you have to re-engineer the entire car if they do) I see THIS: Which is great. Excellent job tbh at least to me. A better non dusty example would be the backs of the doors that have been painted: Giving a reasonable contrast between old and new (I know the old isn't clear coated on the inside of doors). The door card will well and truly cover where the old paint is, you can see in the second pic some of the black butyl/whatever shit is sticking the plastic sheet behind the door transfer that has happened since it's clearly been stuck back on. The most maddening thing about this colour is every time I saw it in the wild it looks like another colour, same with photos of many cars with the same colour looking wildly different in every photo anybody ever takes and this is no exception. But stand a little further back and it suddenly looks dark AF. I did tell them when I was discussing which of the 70 million charcoal colours to choose from (a porsche one, a BMW one, or a R32 GTR one etc) that if they just ignored me and chose one at random I would probably never notice. Maybe they did. But the colour is supposed to be B39 (BMW Mineral Gray). Boring I know, but the R34 sedan (to me) really shows off it's boat-ness when you paint it in a bright colour like bayside blue or white or whatever else. I do have a fondness for AR2 Nissan Red, but decided against that because it'll have pretty odd contrast to random bits unpainted (like engine bay, bits of trim etc, and maybe it'll fade). And people will always fkin comment on AR2. Everything remains super dusty. I have tracking numbers for the new heads, as well as some Improved Racing goodies, but they probably will be a next year thing by the time they end up on the car. I did some maths on the heads and I know why nobody goes to this extent in Australia, because it's really not worth it, given I could have just CNC'ed my current heads, bought a FAST102/TB and used my current rocker/spring/cam combination and get a 383 stroker (or stroked a 6.0 GenIV bottom end to 6.6L) built for the same price of just the setup in the mail/on the floor here. Or I could have bought a LS3 and a Drysump system. And then have a complete engine to sell. Oh well
    • We just disconnected the vacuum line if I remember correctly, booster is still there. Is there a rebuild solution for the booster or a different adapter that will work for GTR chassis?
