Hi Guys.

Been trying to fix this problem for a while now , so thought i might see if any body ahs similar problems with there Power FC.

Basically , i have an r34 gtt rb25 neo,

It has a fair few mods, high mount , greddy plenum, cams etc. Makes approx 430rwhp.

It has some how lost approx 200hp.

Now ive basically done everything mechanical to it that could have failed , from comp tests to cam timing/ vtc gear solenoid etc, boost leaks, afm every possible thing

It still makes full boost.

The only thing thats left is a the Power Fc. When it was on the dyno everything looked to be working ok.

Just seeeing if anybody has had a simliar problem with there power fc ,dosnt have to be r34 neo.

Any ideas/help as im pretty much out.

Cheers Brad

I dont have a FC but i am curious about how you know you lost 200hp. Is it by seat-o-pants-o-meter or a new dyno run has been performed which states your engine now making less power with no signs of damage and same configuration of parts, same AF ratio, same ignition and full boost. If its now only making 200rwhp should be pretty noticable driving it!!!!.

Also it should not take long to work out where the drama is if its sitting on a dyno. Sorry im not helping but this is a unusual post.

Car went on has been on the dyno and only made 230 odd rwhp.

All the of the obvious things are ok. AFRs , timing , boost , vct operation.

If you looked at it on the dyno you would say there is nothing wrong with it , but it just dsont make any power, Thats why were thinking it could be a PFC problem.

Another note we put +5 degrees of timing in the whole map and it made no difference.

    • Ha ha ha, this stuff they had was installing Toshiba PLCs that were made some time in the 1990s, and they were replacing GEM80 PLCs. To let those two talk (staged upgrade along a ~1.2km long building that was split into 4 sections), was a bunch of WinXP machines running Java gateways... There was no way to put something like ProfiSafe in... Most of the HMI machines were WinXP, with Java program, with a custom button board emulating a keyboard... About the only buttons in the operator stations that went direct to the PLCs was the eStop. There was some interesting design stuff in that place...
    • Stock bypass valves are good for plenty of boost.
    • Check for fuel flow out of the outlet end of the rail. Check for spark. Try to start with aerostart (or pressure can brake cleaner or similar solvent in a car) prayed in through TB. If you have fuel and you have spark and it will fire on substitute fuel, then seriously suspect that E85 sitting for ages in your fuel system has destroyed something and put it in your injectors.
    • Nissan stock oil pressure is typically about 1 bar at 1000 rpm plus about 1 bar per thousand revs on top.
    • Luckily for safety applications, with dedicated links not being used for any other traffic, you simply run ProfiSafe (or an equivalent safety comms protocol from other vendors) over the top of ProfiNet (if that's what you're using, or Ethernet IP if you're stuck in the world of American PLCs and not verking vis ze Chermans) and the redundancy is more about being able to know that you need to cause a system diagnostic lockout because you've lost one of your comms channels, rather than not knowing that you've lost your only comms channel. Granted, heartbeats and all that are possible and useable and all that, but some safety applications are are so time critical that you might not be able to afford a few milliseconds until the next check.
