Hello I need help in tuning  SAFC II which is installed in RB25de non turbo. Can any help 

Since I guess you won't want to pay for a dyno you will need to pay for someone to stick an AFR sensor in your tail pipe ...but as above...why would you?

Yeah ok, so the short version is - your mixtures would be fine with the stock ECU. Which you should be able to see on your AFR gauge. 

Why did you replace the factory FPR?

Also, what are you trying to achieve by 'tuning' your essentially stock car, with a SAFC II?

Need a reason to tune it. (Which you do not really have, even if drag racing is what you are wanting to do). There is precious little you can do to wring more power out of an NA engine. Advance the CAS a couple of degrees and you will save yourself the thousand seashells that it would cost to "tune" it with the SAFC.

If you want more power, you are going to have to put something onto the engine that will add power. That can be NA mods (cams, porting, compression), or nitrous or a turbo or a blower. The NA mods are a bad idea (on power per $). Nitrous will see you destroy your engine. A blower is always too hard for everyone. So, you need a turbo. Then, you need an ECU, not the SAFC, which is a pig's breakfast way to tune an engine.

Since you have the SAFC (already installed?) and an AFR gauge you may as well play with it so long as you understand it will give you little or nothing in the way of performance gains. Just Google SAFC II tuning and you will find articles and a couple of videos on how to do it.

Well Im using this car for 1/4 Mile drags race in Fiji Islands. I took a advice from someone to install a SAFC II where it can be tuned... can it be tuned or need more or other options 
 

Nissan has already tuned your stock ECU. You will not be able to improve on the factory tune by playing with your SAFC. 

If you want to play with it for fun, go ahead and enjoy yourself. Just be mindful that there is nothing to be gained power-wise and there is the potential to damage your motor if you don't know what your doing (eg if you lean the mixtures out too much under high load). 

Probably a good idea to detune the engine so it doesn't grenade itself with the fuel they get over there.

You can't really make the N/A go faster without spending big money, and then you'd be far better of with a turbo car to begin with.

So look at weight reduction and suspension tuning+tyres.

    • Yeah. I believe the fear of annealing the alloy and weakening it, Every online discussion has someone saying it's bad and potentially a risk when powder coating forged wheels.  
    • I'm interested if anyone agrees with what you've said, and can give a good reason. Temperature of powder coating should be below any temperature you'd use to alter the wheel structure.  Powder coat typically 200 to 250. Annealing if that's what people are claiming would be occuring, starts at 300, and depending on the alloy, can need even up at 400+.   That's the only part I can think of that could cause an issue that people are believing it's from the rim losing hardness and becoming too soft.
    • Negative probe should be on the cars chassis. Positive on the wire.   Start as said above by unplugging everything (unplug the lights, and switches. Now at the switch, there is a wire from the fuse, to the switch, so out your positive on that terminal. It should read open circuit. If it reads something, especially a stupid low value, the short is somewhere between the fuse and the switch. If that's fine, now put the positive probe on the wire that goes to the headlight (at the switch plug). If it reads stupid low, the fault is from the switch, to the headlight.   Another quick test, is take the whole LED light setup from the left, and plug it into the right side, does it still blow the fuse? If you put the right hand side led light setup on the left hand side wiring, does the left hand side wiring now blow?  If the blowing fuse swaps from right to left doing this, your LED lights are the issue.
    • Anyone know if it's a problem to powder coat forged alloy wheel centers (Rays/Volk GT-C). some say it's bad and can damage the alloy, some say it's not a problem.
    • Hey guys, I'm reviving an old post but I'm finally getting around to working on this now. I removed the battery to get a better look at the wires and i traced the wires from the headlight to the fuse box in the engine bay, but the wiring looks fine? The wiring for the R/H headlight is 3 wires and then is bundled up with the large diameter wire that goes underneath the fuse box. I didn't take it apart yet. I know you said that its a short circuit somewhere between the fuse box and the headlight. But could it be the headlight switch on the dash? Also, i pulled out my multi-meter and set it on the Ohms, but i'm not sure where to put the negative probe and the positive probe.
