Power Fc

[Adz2332]

Hey all,

I was going to buy a Bee*r rev limiter for my 33 GTR just to keep it to 7000 revs or less just to be safe.

But someone said the power fc i have comes with an in built rev limiter that you can set. Is this true?

I tried the manual but dont speak japanese! lol

Does anyone have a step bystep to changing it?

And is it safe to realy on the power fc rev limiter?

cheers

Yep Power FC has a setting

SETTINGS > REV/IDLE and its the first option, REV LIMIT

Just scroll across to the value, then up and down to select the RPM value

Yep, i have mine set to 6900 rpm. I believe its in the setting menu and then rev/idle or something. All you do is keep pressing up or down on how many revs you want it to limit to, very easy.

Some people set it to 3000 rpm when they give they're cars to a mechanic for a service so they don't go thrash it.

cheers guys ill set it now!! i wasnt payin attention one day and found it set out at 7800!

[Adz2332]

ps whats the other settings in that pic?

the top one i change but what do the rest do?

[mad082]

judging by the rpm levels they are set at i'm guessing it's the VCT (NVCS)

[abu]

Bottom 3 are idle settings not sure about the second value

[R31Nismoid]

cold/warm idle, with A/C not sure about the 2nd one

no VCT on a RB26

cheers guys ill set it now!! i wasnt payin attention one day and found it set out at 7800!

Isn't the factory rev limit 8000RPM for an RB26DETT?

[sinstr]

Can anyone run me through the steps of changing the rev limit without a hand controller?

Cheers

unless you have the software you wont be able to, you'll need to drive into a tuner and get them to sort it out.

its much safer for your engine than the bee*r ignition cut limiter too

[Finchy33]

On this subject too, on my ECR33, if I hit limiter sometimes it just bounces and sometimes it is just dead - no pop pop pop.

Is this normal?? My old RX7 with a microtech used to do the later. Just like hitting a brickwall.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

what ecu?

[r33cruiser]

i have a similar question to finchies.

is it true that the pfc limiter cuts fuel, and not ignition????

this would explain the no bang bang and just dying like hitting a wall

PFC

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

nah... my pfc goes bang bang alright

[r33cruiser]

sooooo.

pfc has a fuel cut or ignition cut limiter??????????????????????????????????????/

[skylinekid]

pfc cuts fuel..... im not 100% sure but im pretty sure its a fuel cut.... even tho mine went bang bang nicely aswell. but in saying that my mates stock 33 with a lil bit of boost increase does almost the same just not as loudly. im pretty sure if the pfc cuts igniton and not fuel there would be many ppl complaining of blocked catalytic converters due to the extra fuel....
