hey all,

currently trying to get my power fc tuned and the tuner has advised me that my power fc for r34gtt has a version (same as other pfc's afm's n all) which does not interface with his datalogit or software.(he has tuned other r34gtt's but diff version pfc)

now has anybody had this issue before??? if so how did they overcome it?

he has contacted apexi...but god knows when they will reply with a fix.

cheers, Bass

Weird.. send me a PM, bring your car over and I will connect my datalogit to it to test it if you like.

i wouldn't bother contacting apexi. why would they care if their ecu doesn't work with a non supported, 3rd party application?!?!

if anyone he should be contacting datalogit.

contact fcdatalogit in nz.....

by clicking here

and they will send a patch for the software to your tuner... all gtst/gtt are the same so it should be fine...

also it it his laptop or yours? the problem could also be the usb-serial converter software :rofl:

I had this issue pop up once before. The tuner could connect a R33 but the version he had wouldn't connect to my R34. He ended up doing the tune on the hand controller then the next time I had it retuned after a IC install he had the update and it connected fine.

welll see thats what he is planning to do...he is going to tune on his own powr fc (he owns a r34 gtt) and then save the map and re-write through the handcontroller.

he has began tuning...so we will see how it goes.

ive contacted datalogit...and am awaiting a reply for the update.

til then any help would be great.

thanks again.

      Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?

      Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!

      It just depends if you're like me with a high level of OCD for doing something like hardlines, and highly critical of the little things, and then bugger all patience to get it how my brain pictures it

      More than happy with the colour match Talking to the painter he recommended to give the top a few weeks for the paint to 100% cure prior to sealing it with the ceramic stuff Also, because why not..... I have a fancy pants Fluidampr harmonic balancer on order, the 2.5 engine uses the OEM 2.0 balancer off the old motor as the 2.5 balancer is a larger unit and doesn't fit clearance wise, which, because the two engines have different harmonics, isn't optimal, the OEM balancer does the job, but as the gear driven balancer in the bottom end is removed to fit a RWD application there is slightly more vibration, the Fluidampr helps with the harmonics that the gear driven balancer once took care of,  basically makes life easier on the oil pump and bearings when thrashing it around Hopefully the weather gets better soon because I'm keen for some cruising around, and currently, with the winds and storms we are getting, the amount of detritus being blown around from trees on the road isn't something I want to be driving around in
