Hey guys, glad to become a new member of skylines australia. I have a S14 with a RB25DET series II motor. I have alot of questions about the Apexi Power FC. My mods pertaining to the Power FC are: 90mm Q45 throttle body, 90mm Ford Lightning MAF, and 740cc Tomei injectors. I saw paulR33's FAQ post and figured the values for the injectors would be as follows: 370cc/740cc = .5 * 100 = 50% and

0.66ms - 0.53ms = 0.13ms. Would these be the correct values for the injectors? Also, would I use 90mm Q45 setting for the MAF or would I need to go under options and select a voltage? I have a Ford Lightning 90mm MAF and I am currently using the setting for the 90mm Q45 MAF. Before I bought the Power FC, I was using a Jim Wolf Technology reflash as my tune. This tune required me to set my timing on the Cam Angle Sensor to 20 degrees BTDC (before top dead center). Do I need to set anything in the Power FC to correspond to this or do I need to change the timing on the CAS? I also have a Apexi SAFC installed along with the Power FC. Do I need to unhook the SAFC, in order for the Power FC to operate properly? I checked pin #58 with a test light and it is ok. I also disabled the optional boost feature on the Power FC. When I try and start the car, it tries to start but stumbles after 2-3 seconds. All I want to be able to do is get the car to crank so it can self learn the idle. After that I am going to Balanced Performance in Sugar Hill, GA to have it tuned. Anyone ever heard of them by the way? The car was running fine with the Jim Wolf Technology reflash tune. When I disconnect the Power Fc and re-install the Jim Wolf ECU it cranks right up. Please guys help me out with this. I know it is probably something simple. I called Apexi and they said that using both the SAFC and Power FC should be ok, but that I would not need the SAFC because the Power FC does everything it does and more. Anyways, I cannot think of anything else to tell you about my problem, so thanks in advance for any advice it is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Chad

    • It still combines inches with mm, especially when you have .5 inches involved, and mm and inches that can go in either direction. This would give a clear idea on both sides of the rim, right away, with no arithmetic. Even better if somebody gives you the dimensions of the arch of multiple cars. i.e GTR may be 125mm, a A80 Supra may be 117mm, or something along those lines. Yes, you can 'know' that going from a 10in rim to a 10.5in rim with the same offset moves both sides about 6mm, but you still have to 'know' that and do the math. Often it's combined. People are going from 9.5 +27 to 10.5 +15. You may do the math to know it, but if it was going from (I had to go look it up to be sure) 241mm/2 - 27 - 93.5mm from the center line to (more math) 266/2 - 15 (118mm) from the center line. Versus 93mm vs 118mm. It's right there. If you know you have a GTT with 100mm guards you can see right away that one is close to flush and the other absolutely won't work. And when someone says "Oh the GTR is 120mm" suddenly you see that the 10.5 +15 is about perfect. (or you go and buy rims with approximately 118mm outward guard space) I think it's safe to say that given one of the most common questions in all modified cars is "How do offsets work" and "How do I know if wheels will fit on my car" that this would be much simpler... Of course, nothing will really change and nobody is going to remanufacture wheels and ditch inches and offset based on this conversation :p We'll all go "18x9+30 will line up pretty close to the guards for a R34 GTT (84mm)" but 'pretty close' is still not really defined (it is now!) and if you really care you still have go measure. Yes it depends on camber and height and dynamic movement, but so do all wheels no matter what you measure it for.
    • But offsets are simple numbers. 8" wheel? Call it 200mm, near enough. +35 offset? OK, so that means the hub face is that far out from the wheel centreline. Which is 2s of mental arithmetic to get to 65mm to outer edge and 135mm to inner. It's hardly any more effort for any other wheel width or offset. As I said, I just close my eyes and can see a picture of the wheel when given the width and offset. That wouldn't help me trust that a marginal fitment would actually go in and clear everything, any more than the supposedly simple numbers you're talking about. I dunno. Maybe I just automatically do numbers.
    • Sure! But you at least have simple numbers instead of 8.5 inches +/mm, relative to your current rims you do maths with as well, and/or compare with OEM diameter, which you also need to know/research/confirm..
