IIRC, you cant "turf out" the ALSD without dramas. They have different cradles, and there are the ALSD computer issues to worry about. I seem to recall Sam had problems with her car due to a non-ALSD fitted in a car originally equipped with ALSD, and we were told NOT to swap to a standard LSD when our ALSD needed repairs, due to the high costs and complications of doing so.

PFC works fine with ALSD, it just needs "a trick" that Gavin is refusing to disclose, for obvious reasons ;) I'd be having a yap with him (details on http://www.autech.net.au), but erins car has ALSD and definately spins both wheels - I have several videos to prove it :P (at willowbank... no really)

As well as that, the SLIP light on the dash comes on with wheelspin, so the ALSD computer is obviously doing its thing. I believe the ALSD light (which is a second light) only comes on when there is a problem with the ALSD not working as it should, although I have no idea about the conditions it trips out on error with.

Moral of the story? PFC DEFINATELY works with ALSD, but requires "a trick" :P

Why does EVERYBODY keep telling me to just change the ALSD?!? I think it's good - I like it! :chairshot

Looks like I'm off to Gav with PFC in-hand.... YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!! :crazy:

I suggest you do.. It can be done, but Gav would prefer not to tell people how as that gives his little secret away.

My car is proof that it can be done. I've had the pfc for over a year and never had any problems.

Ok, now you owe me $10 for viewing it without my permission. HAHA.

Yes, I got different cams now, the ones I had in there were abit violent at about 7000rpm, I cant seem to change the gear as fast as the car revs to 9000 from 7000, maybe I'm a crappy driver, but anyway, it getting a retune as the cams are different and the 660cc injects are out of duty cycle. So yes the car, is getting looked at and a few more dollars tip into it before my brother gtr gets on the road.

What do you think of my factory looking set up Erin. Now the car shines from within.

      Got this r31 silhouette flood car to rebuild.

      By 25RBGT · Posted

      Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.

      Car Rotisserie

      By Shoota_77 · Posted

      Hi guys, has anyone either purchased or built themselves a rotisserie for their car before? I can only just justify the need for one hence why I should just make one but at the same time, if I make one I can kiss another 4 weeks of potentially productive car working time goodbye because I'm building a bloody rotisserie....  I mainly want it for the application of the body deadener.  Cleaning the old stuff off, priming and then colour over the deadener doesn't worry me, it's just the application using the Schutz Gun that I feel would achieve a significantly better finish painting it side on and keeping the Schutz Gun upright.  I don't think they would work well on the side let alone almost upside down for some areas.  If the product I use (Terosun, etc) could work through a HVLP ok then it might be ok to apply without the rotisserie.   I can get one of these style ones for about $1200 which is pretty good value-     I reckon if I made one it would cost around $500 but it's more the time that it would take is more of a killer than the cost.  They look to hold their value pretty well second hand so I could always sell it after using it and realistically only lose $200-$300 at worst.  Or keep it and buy another project when this one finally sees the light of day... Anyone selling one...? Cheers!

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      While it is a very nice idea to put card style AFMs into the charge pipe (post intercooler, obviously), the position of the AFM and the recirc valve relative to each other starts to become something that you really have to consider. The situation: The stock AFM is located upstream the turbo, and the recirc valve return is located between the AFM and the turbo inlet, aimed at the turbo inlet, so that it flows away from and not through the AFM. Thus, once metered air is not metered again, neither flowing forwards, or backwards, when vented out of the charge pipe. When you put the AFM between the turbo outlet and the TB, there is a volume of pressurised charge pipe upstream of the AFM and there is a volume of pressurised pipe downstream of the AFM. When the recirc valve opens and vents the charge pipe, air is going to flow from both ends of the charge pipe towards the recirc valve. If the recirc valve is in the stock location, then the section between it and the TB doesn't really matter here - you're not going to try to put the AFM in that piece of pipe. But the AFM will likely be somewhere between the intercooler and the recirc valve, So the entire charge pipe volume from that position (upstream of the AFM, back through the intercooler, to the turbo outlet) is going to flow through the AFM, get registered as combustion air, cause the ECU to fuel for it, but get dumped out of the recirc valve and you will end up with a typical BOV related rich spike. So ideally you want to put the AFM as close to the TB as possible (so, just upstream of the crossover pipe, assuming that the stock crossover is still in use, or, just before the TB if an FFP is being used) and locate the recirc valve at the turbo outlet. Recirc valve at the turbo outlet is the new normal for things like EFRs anyway. In the even of a recirc valve opening dumping all the air in the charge pipe, pretty much all of it is going to go backwards, from the TB to the recirc valve near the turbo outlet. But only a small portion of it (that between the TB and the AFM) will pass through the AFM, and it will pass through going backwards. The card style AFMs are somewhat more immune to reading flow that passes through them in reverse than older AFMs are, so you should absolutely minimise the rich pulse behaviour associated with the unavoidable outcome of having both a recirc valve and an AFM in the charge pipe.

      Yep, in my case as soon as I started hearing weird noises I backed off the tension until it sounded normal again. Delicate balance between enough tension to avoid that cold start slip and too much damaging things.
