Still having no luck with this and was wondering if someone has a pic of the blue plug with the wire swap done..The reason i ask is, i have just noticed that my red and white wires are not in pin 5 and 6, when looking at the plug from the side the wires go in and if you count from the left to right as diagrams show...Count from right to left and it matches up..
I would love to see someones plug that has had to wire swap done..please..

It has the factory ecu in it now,but it appears the factory ecu was put back in when the car was sold to me..So i'm guessing the car has had a aftermarket ecu in her in the past.

I just read that 2 skylines had similar problems with starting, ( they didn't say anything about sensor faults though) they fixed this problem by running another wire from the positive battery terminal to the pfc..

. Some cars only (for some strange reason) have half gauge wiring running from the battery to the ECU. This works fine for the factory computer but the PowerFC needs the full 12volts. You can simply run new 12volt wire from the battery to the ECU and this should correct this. This problem has been experienced by at least two members previously (both in R33 GTST)

My battery is only putting out 11.8 volts ( that was taken at the terminals with multi meter). Do you guys think this could be my problem and if so, how to fix?

Only Nissan's Suffer from the power relay issue (that causes the power FC to continually reset back to the base map).


Have you tried your Power fc in another car to eliminate the possibility/probability that your PFC is fucked??
