Hey guys i was just wondering if anyone knows if there is a power fc that will work in a R32 gtst with a R33 gtr RB26 engine and and if there is still any available for this type of conversion ? .The reason that i ask is that im looking at buying or building such a set up.

afaik there is no power fc (btw power fc's are discontinued) that is designed specifically for what you seek....but I think that would be obvious. You can still install a power fc and custom fabricate the loom to make other things work if you wish. You'll probably have more luck in the FI section with this query.

microtech or something else would be better.

but ill guess the R33 GTR PFC would be better suited for this..

Yeah i thought that the obvious would be one to suit a 33gtr but wasnt sure on the loom side of things.I might be better of to go a motec or haltec, i dont like wolf they have a shitty cold start and (mircotech depending on which) one are ok, but thanks for the reply guys, oh and yeah i did know that power fc are discontinued but only on certain models.

Martin Donnon on HPI magazine did similar conversion before. He installed a RB26DETT onto a R33GTSt 4 doors with an automatic gearbox. He used my old R32GTR power fc for the car. I think they installed some sort of harness for the auto gearbox. Email HPI magazine for more info.

Should be no problem if you use the GTR loom. From what I have read the Power FC model number is the same for R32 & R33 GTRs and I have read R33 GTRs being tuned with R32 GTR computers (remappable).

If you need assistance wiring up the GTR loom just ask. I use the factory RB25 looms when transplanting into R32's to retain factory engine management functionality which allows the Power FC for the RB25 to be used. The same will apply here.

Cheers

Hey thanks for the info and help offered.Yeah i have read that about the GTR computer swap for the 33's, obviously the factory 33 computer isnt remappable.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Oh yeah forgot to also mention need to also unplug the IACV as well. Thanks for the reminder @MBS206 Unplugging the TPS takes it out of closed loop so you're able to screw down the IACV without the ECU trying to add/subtract timing to maintain the idle (not sure PowerFC can even do this, but Nistune and the OEM definitely does)

      Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T 1999

      For sale is my 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T, tuned to 234 kW / 313 hp. I've had the car for a few years as my daily driver. The car is original (as far as Skylines go), with only a few minor upgrades to enhance performance and driving experience, as typical for such a car of its age. Overall, it is in great condition with no body rust, thanks to its earlier import date. It features a top-notch security system (not literally, but it's great!) with remote start and still functional 4-wheel steering via HICAS. It comes with several performance and handling upgrades, including:     Hypergear 450HP Turbocharger running 17 PSI boost, installed mid-2021 by Jaustech     550cc injectors     Nistune ECU     Front-Mount Return-Flow Intercooler     X-Force Stainless Steel Exhaust     Upgraded engine mounts     Bottom end bearings replaced     BC Coilovers     Lenso DR1 rims     Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE003 TL 245/40R18 97W tires, fitted early 2023 The interior is mostly stock, with a few additions:     Viper Satellite Tracking System with remote start     Bluetooth Double-Din Touchscreen Head Unit     Steering wheel cover Cons:     A few paint imperfections here and there     Driver’s seat shows more wear than the others. It's not torn at all, but I've added a seat cover to protect its condition. I also have a CarVX Vehicle History report available for serious buyers, so you don’t need to purchase it yourself. Price: $26,000 ONO.

      Troubleshooting - motor wont turn over

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I've had two suzukis in the past have an extremely hard time turning over and not starting after sitting for a few weeks. Ended up the alternator would seize up causing the starter to force. Same issue both times.  Maybe they're sourcing their alternators from the same place...

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      On the R34 can't you just unplug the IACV? This is the way I've always done it on the R33. Disconnect IACV, get it idling around 650rpm, and then do a power reset on the ECU to get it to relearn idle (factory ECU).   The big reason no one has touched on as to why you'd want to get the base idle right, is that it means the computer needs to make smaller adjustments to get a good idle at 700-750rpm.   Also, cleaning the IACV won't normally make the car suddenly idle lower or higher. The main issue with the IACV gumming up is that the valve sticks. This means the inputs the ECU gives, aren't translating to changes in air flow. This can cause idle choppy ness as the ECU is now needing to give a lot of input to get movement, but then it moves too far, and then has to do the same in reverse, and it can mean the ECU can't catch stalls quickly either.
