  1. do they give you the software and laptop adapter so you can tune it yourself or take it to another tuner next time? or do they make you take it to them all the time?
  2. get a bottle of that really good 104+ octane booster. put that in it. dont put too much just a little more then it says on the bottle and it should give you some extra power
  3. :laughing-smiley-014: Dont touch it. if you want more power then you need mods.
  4. how can it be better then a power fc?
  5. lol they are old pics with my stock bottom end.. when the forged bottom end went it there is much more bling bling.. will have to update my photos
  6. i got a cheap heavy duty pressure plate with a 5puk clutch plate. seems to be going okay so far.. it does slip before spinning the wheels if i drop it sometimes.. so i need to upgrade too. Check out the jim berry clutch's
  7. Its probly a R32 ecu with the external vct controll re-mapped.. They can work well. why would you when for double your money you can get a power fc with a hand controller brand new.
  8. Its going to be the best way of doing it if you ask me. Will also need to be able to configure the rpm point that it turns on. *edit* make it a DIY kit.... provide info on what to get from jaycar and then sell the cable and info etc etc.
  9. crack the slave and let the fluid flow at least 2 master cyl's worth then close it before it runs out (dont let it ever run out)
  10. a good way to bleed these clutch's is to use the gravity feed.. just make sure the master is full and crack open the slave while the clutch pedal is out and let the fliud drain out of the slave for a while.. maybe one or 2 master cyl's full of fluid. See if this way bleeds it at all? If you crack the slave and nothing comes out then bleed the other 2 points before trying again.
  11. Was it a standard r33 clutch ?? try calling Jim Berry - his single plate clutch's have a good name so i keep hearing.. I might be getting one myself
  12. I have toyed with a few different ECU's and I do like the Power FC the most. The software is great. My favorite feature is that that when doing a ramp run you can have the map tracer flash the load point green when knock goes over the pre-set value. Each to their own - if you dont run a Power FC then i would not suggest a Stinger or a Microtech id go the whole way and get something like a Motec or Autronic or even try out one of those Adaptronics, they are doing really well for $1000 (around $2500 fitted and tuned) Your still going to save money with a Power FC at $1550 and even cheaper for the 26 version modded and you will get the extra temp sensor options. Paulr33 Good idea to keep going with the project.. the more options we have the better. Who knows whats going to happen 12 months down the track. I was thinking you can get a jaycar controller and wire it into the loom your creating and include it into the cost ?
  13. For starters the AFM is not a restriction. I am not even going to go into a map sensor vs AFM war.. just ask the japs.. they seem to be doing just fine. Dual maps ?? Why would you need dual maps ? you tune the car to run cruise how you want it then you tune the car on boost to how you want it. If you run the car on the street with pump and use other fuels for the track then your obviously a more advanced user and you should know how to change the maps OR use the laptop software to load another map into it which only takes a minute or so. Anti Lag??? Buy a V8 if you cant drive a turbo The power FC is in jap / english but anyone who sits down and spends more then an hour using the software can pretty much work out what everything is without too much hassle. Obviously the Power FC is not the "ECU for dummies" but it is a very good option for someone that wants a cheap solution for a street car or for someone that knows how to use one properly. There are lots of things that the power FC does not do like temp / boost correction for one... external outputs... etc etc but they are still much more popular on R33 Skylines then anything else. The Power FC is still the best ECU for these cars unless you are very serious about what your doing and you need to run another ECU with more options... From a PFC i would suggest a Autronic or a Motec.
  14. Power FC all the way man.... They are an awesome computer.. They can even pass emissions!!! (with the right tuner of course I dont know why anyone would get anything other then a Power FC. There is no reason for anything different. Only a high end ECU like a Motec or a Autronic can come close the the stanard computer driveability of a Power FC and even then its not as good. Power FC all the way. They are second to none and the more people that buy them the better because Apexi will keep on making them and even possibly find a replacement for the NEC chip that is hard to find.
  15. Well the question is how much can you make the cable for ? if you can get rb26 power fc's for $900 from japan and sell the cable for $100 then $1000 vs $1550 is a big price difference as long as everything functions the same then why wouldnt you buy the 26 version ?? I guess a extra $500 for peace of mind is good BUT who knows how much longer the demand for R33 GTST power fc's will go for.. this cable your looking at making may be a good product for years to come because face it.. r33 gtst's are only going to get older and we will eventually upgrade our cars and there may be a abundance of second hand ones floating around at that time anyway... So it does not hurt to develop the cable if its not going to cost you alot of time and money.
  16. $1550 comes with the hand controller brand new never used with Apexi Australia Warranty. If you get 10 people together and everyone has the cash together ready to go then tell him i said you can all have $20 off each power fc He should go for it.. he just does not want people piss farting around.. you want it you pay it gets ordered thats it. You all know what a power fc is so dont bother them unless your ready to buy otherwise he might not want to bother with it anymore and tell everyone to go jump (lots of time wasters and its hard when trying to run a business)
  17. You can still get brand new power fc's from Apexi! check the link in my sig
  18. Hey Birnie That was a awesome job you did mounting the soloniod! Cable ties rule hehehee
  19. If you still need help here is the link and read the second post of the thread all the info you need is there. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=167846
  20. Click on the link in my SIG about getting power FC's. they are still available and Apexi are still making them BUT they are only available through Apexi. Click the link below and get yourself one before the demand stops and they stop making them.
  21. i think it changed around 92 93 ?? not very sure.. might have to ring around to find out. I will put this on ebay if its not sold soon
  22. do you have a power FC ?
  23. yeah if it was heat related it takes longer then 2 minutes to make a noise.. id replace the pump maybe...
