R32 Gt-r Setups

[jimmib]

Hi all,

I've nearly got the bastard up and running so im wondering what other ppl are running, where they got the gear, what they think of there setup's, and who they got it from.....

im using a T70 comp unknown specs with a T3 exhaust housing. 50mm external gate profec B spec 2 boost controller and Power FC computer

stock suspension for now as im researching and am getting DBA slots and EBC green stuff for pads (F) and DBA slots and EBC black stuff ®.

interested to know what people have experienced with power FC's on and off the track as i hear they have a problem with idle and AC???

Cheers JimmiB

You hear wrong. I personally wouldn't be risking a $4000 motor with a T70

im using a power fc D jetro and ive got no problems with it at all

car is a full time daily by the way

Mainly im looking to find out about power FC's and profec B's as i am NFI about there workings and if they be good or not any nown bugs/flawes etc and what ppl who use there cars on the track (ie circuit). ( thnking clearly makes asking so much easier lol )

and i have no idea what brand T70 it is atm i really dont have any money as i have run out buying other parts to get the bastard running it was all i had available at the time.........

and thanks STR8E180 was good to see what someone else is using for an idea where to head!!!

Its together James...together...ok

I was thinking the same thing...

My bet is the T70...and yes im thinking about the same kinda T70 as everybody else...Will make less power than the stock Twins.

Who told you that PFCs have Idle Probs???....never heard of that before

Power FC's are find, tested and proven on so many cars its not funny. As far as the Profec B's are concerned, i've used one on all of my cars and have had not one problem with them (except one which just made an annoying tick).

[R31Nismoid]

PowerFC having problems in general would be news to me!

I cant see how in 2008, after so many threads on this forum and general market use, that people could possibly say PowerFC's have problems.

Its the CARS that have the problem, not the ECU.

If a cars IAC valve is broken etc, of course its going to have problems, thats not the ECU's fault, never will be

[paulr33]

as the others have said the PowerFC is fairly bulletproof, if you want to do some reading and have a few hours spare, check out

http://paulr33.skylinesaustralia.com/docs/...powerfc-faq.htm

this will cover any questions you have on the PowerFC and anything else you might face later on

in regards to the T70 if its the typical ebay spec T70 its probably junk and i wouldnt bother

as someone else said, the std twins probably make more power and resposne

on my 180 i started of with a power fc D jetro but i did start running into problems with it later on down the track when the car became more of a race type car

the problem i had with the power fc was that it wasnt able to control external parts such as nitrous, ignition system such as MSD, 2nd set of injectors, launch control (it had one built in but didnt wanna use the built in launch control in the power fc because i had to plug a laptop in to use it every time) and my main problem was the power fc could only hold 1 map every time i wanted to run race fuel i had to plug a laptop into the power fc and load in another map from the laptop

the power fc was great when all i needed was an ECU that could control the engine but once u start throwing in more and more stuff the power fc isnt able to control them because of this i ended up removing the D jetro and upgrading it for a haltech E11v2

my car runs on 2 different fuel types

standard fuel tank is for pump gas and my fuel cell is for race fuel

engine has 2 different set of injectors per cylinder

800cc injectors used for pump gas and 1000cc injectors used for race fuel

i can now switch between 2 different tunes via a switch inside the car and swap between different map's for each type of fuel

i neva intended on going this far with the car which is why i bought the power fc D jetro

its a GREAT ecu if ur looking for a ECU to control the engine

my R32 on the other hand is my daily driver which is why i went with a D jetro

i was happy with how the D jetro perform on the 180 so i knew wat ecu i wanted for the GTR

the only problem ive eva run into with a normal power fc and Z32 afm was on my mates 180sx

air would push back out the other way of the intake pipe and back out the afm low down in the rpm range so every time u took of the car would have this little ruff take of wat he had to do was put another bed in the intake pipe but it wasnt as eazy as that because there was no room for a bend in the piping so all he does now is give it abit more rev's when taking of

other then that there was no other problem with the afm version power fc

all up i would recommend the power fc if u want is a ECU which can just basically take car of the engine

thanks for the answers guys given me something to think about

With the turbo i am told it is supposed to be the equivilant of the twins but the reason it is there is the STD twins were blown and i didnt have access to any "new" ones looks like it was a good thing i kept all the STD twin setup i may have to find some stock replacements then hmmmmmm.

Thanks heaps again guys
