Hi,

I have a R34 GTT with the triptronic, i bought a Power FC, i installed it, started up, did the idle learn

and went for a ride...

The car stays at some gear(3rd i think) and that's it, no triptronic and not good mixture...

What can i do about this? Except manual conversion...

It's a shame you didn't do some research before you bought it. Haven't seen you on the forums before so I'll assume you didn't know what almost everybody else does, PFC is for manual only. You need to contact Toshi, do a search.

I did searched it... but i saw that the only thing that it could be a problem where the harsh gear changes..

Today i bought a manual conversion so i guess everything wil be solved.. :D

Thanks for answering..

Akis.

Harsh..more like *no* gearchanges ;) When you take out the ECU, you remove the control unit for the transmission, that's why it stays in 3rd. If you had a 25GT, it would have run just fine though, bloody Nissan.

A conversion will sort that out though ;)

Is the auto trans control on a non-turbo R34 separate?

Yep, it's only the GTt that has the intergrated TCM.ECM the N/A has the TCM seperated, so when you take out the ECU it still has gearshift capability.

So how I "understand" it the non-turbo auto would be better suited to aftermarket ECUs - if that's what you intend on doing...

It is absolutely Plug&Play. :(

Hi Akis,

I know the thread is a little old but hopefully you may know an answer, I know of some series 1 98 skylines that have had a manual conversion using the auto loom are having problems with the plug and play PowerFC. infact its not as plug and play as we thought, problems with the TCS, Engine light and Aircon compressor. Any idea's why we'd be having such issues?

Cheers

TCS and engine lighl and also Slip are on because the Power FC doesn't co-operate with the TCS so check engine is on. That's what happened with mine. I do not need the TCS.. i think it is better to have the control by yourself.. ;)

About the aircon compressor i havent noticed anything..

For the engine light i think there is a solution..

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
