its covered in the powerfc faq but to reset it ;

ETC, DATA INIT, choose YES, press NEXT

power the car off

next time you power the car back on perform the self idle learn procedure (also in the powerfc faq under install)

[paulr33]

no idea to be honest, it could be legit

there was a limited spec run of d1 hand controllers

how much is it

[Chi100188]

its 70 dollars haha i won the bid

hmmm i dono if i should buy it the trader has 99.1% positivef so yeah

[paulr33]

if its $70 then it would be fake

a working hand controller is worth about $250

hi driftmiester,

no it wont, its just normal detonation occuring

follow the standard guidelines in the powerfc faq on how to debug knocking

no the z32 afm just allows for more tuning resolution and nothnig else, its the same size as the standard rb25 AFM so it wont add power

Thanks heaps Paul. You hv been a great help.

Im now saving up a Datalogit & probably a wideband, this way i will be able see more stuff with the laptop. Currently using the Apexi Turbo timer which also shows the A/F ratio but not very accurate.

Hah! Usually my Knock is ok, but it hit 125 when I was planting it from 0 - 100 after pulling over on the freeway (nature calling). Oops. Time to try out the ground zero approach

Just wondering, did apexi make power fc's for automatic skylines?

[sam5709]

[lunjiaow]

no there isnt an auto skyline version of the powerfc

there is for toyota however as lots of toyota's are auto and i guess the code/logic is maybe a bit easier

[lunjiaow]

thanks paul. clears things up now.

Hi Paul

Just checking whether under the SETTING for AIRFLOW, does the Power Intake refer to those ER34 who has changed to after market filter cone type? A friend of mine read it somewhere in the Japanese version manual indicated this. Just want to double confirm.

yes you can choose the power intake when you change the airfilter but its not required

and it probably wont make any difference, i dont know any one thats done it and gained anything

Hi Paul i received my Power fc today and was wondering if you can tell me where the stock ecu is located on a R32 GTR. I've had a good look on the net and come up with nothing.

Cheers
