hey guys, i have a r33 gtst skyline and have just reciently intstalled the apexi PowerFC and hand controller. The rest of the car is pretty stock, except for 3in exaust. The FC is still in its base tune. What i have noticed though is if i give it a bit, it's not too hard to get the FC to flash up 100% duty cycle for the injectors (or close to it).

whats the most logical cause for this, injectors or fuel pump on the way out?

Most logical cause is the the base map is set up for greater fuel delivery to take into account more mods than you have (ie is tuned rich).

Get it on a dyno and tune according to the air/fuel ratio. Will probably find that you'll gain power as well as reduce fuel consumption.

just get GT-R injectors ,pump,FMIC,POD and youll fly .. 13 seconds garunteed.

that wouldnt cost you much.. how much boost are you running ? you must be on atleast 11psi to max out the injectors and fpump

bahahaha!!!

U have obiliously have not done any of these in your car have ya?

B33st

If u got stock everything else then ur injectors shouldnt be maxing out.

Get the injectors ultrasonically cleaned and checked coz they must be a blockage somewhere, or your fuel pump is cactus. Also if u continue to drive your engine will be pining up high with the base maps

I have already purchased new 044 fuel pump, sx reg, surgetank. Also no the way are a Greddy Plenum, Q45 afm + throttle body.

Had just put the FC in and given it a bit or a run to see how it would go. Ran like normal, except for the fact that the hand controler was easy to get to show 100% duty, never showed more than 17 on the knock meter though.

as soon as i get the plenum etc, will installing all the bits and taking it to ARE (QLD) for custom cooler / piping job.

then its time for a tune, and i guess i will find out if new injectors are needed too.

leigh.

yeah am working towards the turbo...

I wanted to do my build-up in 2 stages.

1. support systems

2. big turbo and big boost.

i pretty much have all the support items now(see last post). so ill get them installed + tuned and it'll then just be a matter of waiting till i have the funds for the turbo.

leigh.

    • Ha ha ha! I know those feels mate I've finally got the garage cleared enough that next weekend I'll do some actual work on my car (hopefully). Unfortunately garage isn't usable after 10am at the moment That said, I've done a lot of work this weekend on helping finalise a friend's Production Race car. Full started Christmas Eve. We're down to about 8 tasks on the list, including "get a wheel alignment". Sometimes it's just easier working on someone else's car or project than our own stuff 😛
    • Ha ha, ended up going it alone.  I just sent it (in a very nervous fashion).  Once I'd released the locks and it didn't automatically start spinning out of control i felt a bit more confident.   It made some loud sounds (cracking and creaking noises) when I first spun it which got the heart rate going again!  I couldn't bring myself to leave it tipped on the side.  I feel a bit more comfortable having back right side up while it sits there. I'd get angry with your last point but you're 100% correct! 😅 Even yesterday I managed to distract myself at numerous times to make a bracket to fit an LED flood light off the back of the house and fix my sons pushbike.  There were other little taks nibbling at my brain for the rest of the day too...
    • Probably one of the more nerve wracking experiences of my entire life! 😂😂 The balance (centre of gravity) is out still but in a direction that gives me comfort!   It's quite bottom heavy still meaning it takes a bit of muscle to rotate it.  The plus side of that is that it wants to to go back to upright.  Better that than wanting to go all stranded turtle on me!
    • hmmm that's not ideal. This is a pretty new engine right, will be interesting if your engine guy has any theories about causes
