Hey mate, top work on the FAQ!

just a note, I think the injector info is abit messed up and could be confusing?

  Quote
To work out new INJECTOR correction and latency;

Old SIZE / New Size = Correction

Old Latency - New Latency = Latency Correction

John plans to install 600cc injectors into his RB26 VL Turbo. The following figure's are used;

444 / 600 = 0.74 * 100 = 74.0%

0.81 - 0.77 = +0.04 msec

"Old Latency - New Latency = Latency Correction" shouldn't it read "New Latency - Old Latency = Latency Correction" ?

i just purchased a powerfc with a map for a car with similar mods on it, should i reset it and start from scratch with tuning or run it as is and tune from there? any help appreciated

I would say reset

surely its better for the tuner to start from something similar... if i plug the new ecu in and turn car on would it be the same as it was in the other car, eg. just to check if its working or not

what are the mods?

Noob here and stumbled across this thread on google.com.

Great thread! I've previously installed my PFC before and had hesitition during idle and normal cruising, after reading that PFC FAQ I'm assuming it's "hunting" cause I didn't install it right. After reading on how to install it, I have a really noob question. What is aircon and demister? I'm assuming aircon = airconditioner and demister = defroster? I'm totally guessing here, please advise.

hello i have a 95 nissan 240sx S14 the US version of the S14 silvia and i have recently installed a R34 NEO engine in it and i am running it witha power FC . i have since got it up and running and i am now in the tuning stages but i have unfortuantely stumled across another hurdle. in the snesor check function i have a highlighted sensor which i believe is for the traction control system. its labeld as THRM and its reading 5.11 volts...i nologer am running the factory intake plenum nor the factory throttel body i have installed a greddy plenum and a Q45 throttle body...if this is for the traction control system is there a way i can fool the Power FC to make the sensor light go away so i can finish tuning it and get it running the way i like it...please help me out guys...i am keeping my fingers crosses on this one...

thanks in advance

Paul or anyone, can you help me??

I'm running out of flow on the Q45afm (5v maxed)at 18psi. Is it possible to actually wire in 2 AFM to the Power FC say in parallel or would i need to get a rb26 power fc instead??

Oh btw, have rb25 fc running RB30det.

Cheers

Robb

Hi robb,

This is probably the 3rd GT3540 & Q45 combination I have seen that has the AFM maxing out really early.

I am unable to offer much to help the situation. The only thing I can think of is the batch of Q45 most people are getting is the wrong version/model or has different firmware etc.

To run twin afms on the single RB25 PFC you will need to either use the new SAFC II which has AFM duplexing support (twin into single signal) or use the Rb26 PFC.

Using the Rb26 PFC requires a few changes and youll loose the factory VCT. If you have aftermarket exhaust cam gear then its not an issue as that negates it anyway.

EGA4IT has a workaround for this issue we have had on our stageas.

Ah ok, might look into something like the new safc. Saying that it might be a good idea to do the 26 thing, don't have VCT anyway RB30det and prob won't cost much to change over, only thing is getting it tuned again.

Thaks for that paul, wealth of knowledge, might have to take you up on that 26 offer.

Hi, i've just installed my new PFC and all is okay, haven't got it tuned as yet, but seems to be working fine. My problem is that i don't get any knock reading, on the monitor screen its just got "knock l" and thats it. Doesn't change when idling or driving. I have checked to to see if it is on and by my guess it is. Any help Paul?

go into monitor, then 1 channel and move to knock and press next.

you won't get a number to show, it will be a bar graph. press up, right or down (dont remember without doing it) and it will show you the maximum you have hit on the right of the bar graph.

    • Hey everyone, I recently bought myself a 2001 Nissan Stegea M35, and I've had a few issues that I had to fix, my car would start intermittently and I had a bad rocker cover leak, after a couple days of looking I finally found a part number that interchanges with the OEM starter as the OEM starters at $1300 and I can't afford that, this starter was only $270 and I replaced the start and still had the same issues, I posted a video asking for help online and it went very well, some guy said it was probably a bad ignition switch so I took my dash apart and turns out my ignition switch was half screwed in and was loose, once it was tightened it fired right up, I found a local place called "Boost factory" and they sold me a part of OEM Nissan rocker covers, they were $600 which was a shocker but I couldn't find them anywhere else, so I installed them and fixed my oil leak as the old rocker cover was cracked and warped, I now need to replace my boost air inlet hoses as they have some cracks.
    • I am being real ocd and do not want to make amy mistakes so appreciate all help provided. I am overly cautious so asking for opinion even if i know the answer   few questions,   1.re tensioner, should spring be greased lightly?    2.tensioner has two washers , one pressure washer and other has recessed/ seat. I am going to put the recessed one facing tensioner where edges are cut out and pressure washer on top   3. my car has custom triger kit sold few years ago by guy who initially built the engine. I moved the crank gear and it moved in and out easy, only way to remove belt is to slide the crankshaft gear forward which I did. I have seen these being very tough to move , anything to do with my woodruff key?   it has a crank sensor shown in purple which I assume reads from the 12 teeth position mounted to the crankcase gear   4. timing belt doesn’t have arrow stating front or back just a arrow which I think is direction of rotation . Do you agree?   5.i figured out why my crankcase cover was worn as there was no washer installed over the crankcase cover before the harmonic balancer was put in place. It is missing, anyone knows the part number? It looks like this https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-crankshaft-timing-gear-rear-plate-washer-nissan-s13-ca18-a31-r32-rb20-r33-r34-c33-c34-c35-rb25?currency=USD   https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4535.382Zy2 https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4537.382dSz https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4534.382q4U  
    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
