Only person I know with aftermarket ecu is EVLR33 - he bought Kens PowerFC before I could get some money together.

Can get a new PowerFC + HC from Nengun for $1700 delivered. If I knew that would solve the problem I would order one tomorrow & prepare to be castrated:)

Yep - that's the problem though cos you can't expect them to spend their time testing things without getting paid.

Might ask Brett about his PowerFC. Might also order a new harness cos I can get one for $600, just have to wait a few weeks for it to be made & sent from Japan.

I don't mind one that's not new, but I believe there is a bit of work installing them so it would make sense to put one in to stay, therefore better not to risk one that may also have problems.

Then again, depends on how much I can get a second hand one for - I already borrowed one off Ray last year just to check against the mess that the japanese owner had left - used to be able to stall the car by jiggling (hmmm...images non car related come to mind!) the harness near the ecu.

Yea , Yea , I'm here . Geez you whores make hard to catch up.

Phptf , stop trying to hit in Lauren , we were all here first.

Micko , I'm still thinking about the problem but I'm leaning towards AFM 's or wiring still .Don't think a new harness will cover that bit.

Cheers

Ken

Hey Ken - hope I didn't get you in too much strife today! Seemed like you relished the chance to take a break from your household duties anyways:)

Car was idling at 1100rpm on the way home with a/c on. Switched it off & revs went to 1300??? Started later & idling was at about 600??? What the?

    • Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.
    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.
