You can have a good understanding of an ECU's capability by reading it's manual. Power FC manual is readily available on the net, as would be the other ECU's manuals presumably.

Water temp compensation means just what it says really. When the engine is cold it feeds the engine more fuel. As the engine warms up it reduces the fuel fed to the engine till the normal operating temperature is reached.

Sydneykid , you now nothing about the Wolf plug and play as it can do these things and more inc boost MAP or MAF air temp comp and very good idle control etc etc and it uses all the factory sensors and can be used with a hand controller or lap top( i would hate to tune about 4000 sites with a hand set)

People should check the facts before they post bull like you did.

Down load the software and eat your words.

Well this has been a long and interesting post, I've learnt a little, and decided to hold off buying those new injectors for a little while ;-)

However, it's better to be safe than sorry, since leaning out your fuel can be hazardous to your engine's health.

Next time Martin or any other Magazine people are in Perth they should come in to my shop and test some of our cars themselves. Some writers have their own shops selling other products so they support what they sell.

anyone who thinks otherwise has issues.

buster if you are Morg's mate as ur sig indicates congrats on the awesome time ... he told me about it.

in response to your question .... some people want dyno queens only. in no way am i suggesting anyone here is like that but thats one explanation.

maybe the rest of the package is lacking ... look at Donnon's ex soarer .... 300 plus rwkw in a manual soarer ... best was a 13.0 - very poor result, but the car just jept having issues.

im sure there are many more things then just that but theres a couple

tom thanks mate, but to be honest we all have our problems and nightmares with our biggish hp cars but some of us keep working and trying different things till we get there, and can show the full potential of our cars, others I'm sure make up excuses becuse there cars just aren't up to the task even though they've got a dyno sheet saying they've got the HP to do it,

Sydneykid, I have to agree with Steve on this one, I don't think your comparing the new Wolf 3D Ver4, as it shits all over the PFC in so many areas. I'm not going to start an ECU debate but you do have the facts wrong about this one.

Buster, While I'm impressed with the time you have achieved I'm sure you'll understand that not all of us need to rush out to do a 1/4mile to prove anything. I will be taking it to the Motorplex on November the 22nd, when there is an ANDRA drag meet with a fully prepped track, until then you'll just have to hold your horses:D

rb20-calais, I'm sure you'll be happy with the Wolf aslong as you can find a good tuner. It's the same as any ECU, if you don't have a good tuner you won't get good results:D

No Steve sorry it wasn't just aimed at you, as I know you will race and have raced in the past, theres plenty of people I know with big power though that don't race or have raced and just can't get the times because all they've got is a dyno sheet hahaha and not a well tuned car with good midrange/useable power

Your a lucky guy though getting a fully prepped track to race on, Hopefully soon with the new drag strip being opened in Sydney we'll get a fair go too and more then 3 runs a night/fortnight

Yeah, we have a very good facility here. Open racing on Wednesday nights and Sundays. Then they also have started a new class called Sports Compacts (i.e. Jap cars), where you can do head-head racing on a fully prepped track, they also have dyno shootouts, bikini babes etc:D

The 2-way mechanical diff will be going in soon, then all I need is a set of decent tyres and I'm ready to race:D

    • Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 馃槕. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

    • Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.
    • Hope the cans went down well at least 
    • 255 can't go wrong with the price.
    • When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
