  1. yes dude as listed price is ONO also, its a 1984 model
  2. thanks for ur interest guys, pfc is SOLD! :laughing-smiley-014:

  4. don't get ur hopes up, shipping to melbourne was $290
  5. lol my mates make fun of me for lookin at the reflection from shop windows. guess it must be a skyline thing
  6. hmm... perhaps. But i'm only running 10psi, plus it is an r34 smic (which is slightly bigger than the standard 33smic) and rated at up to ~220kw so I thought it'd be fine for as long as I plan on keeping my stock turbo.
  7. Hey, well I spoke to my tuner today, he says that when he first started he put the CAS to 15 but it was pinging, so he put it back down to 10. Any ideas as to why we were not able to lean it out much? the AFR is about 10 right now. I'm thinking power fc will solve my problem. Also got it compression tested with all cylinders coming in between 150 - 160 which is quite healthy so we can rule out any sort of piston leak.
  8. ahh now i see. so really my tuner should have advanced the timing when it started pinging. But I'm wondering why it was retarded so much to begin with. I'll give him a call tomorrow. Thanks Josh, you've been most helpful
  9. hmm. so, advanced timing makes the valves open sooner, right? this means air enters the cylinder earlier, causing the mixture to detonate sooner? so if the base timing is adjusted back to 15 wouldn't that make the engine ping more? or is my logic flawed? is knocking a result of advanced or retarded timing (or either). edit: or does the CAS change ignition timing? in which case I can see that retarded timing would cause detonation because the spark is not igniting soon enough.
  10. So does a higher CAS setting advance or retard timing?
  11. yeah i do but no scanner. Boost jumps up to 9 psi at about 2500 rpm, then creeps up to 10 by 4000rpm where its fairly steady til red line. the power curve is fairly straight with a few bumps here and there and max power is just after 6 grand. does that help??
  12. Anyone able to shed some light on these questions? I'm not doing anything new, so should be plenty of people with the answers I need. I did search and couldn't find anything. Thanks!
  13. need a 3" flanged here
  14. Hey people, My r33 s2 has the following mods: pod with box 3" turbo back exhaust stock turbo @ 10psi r34 gtt smic SAFC I got the car dyno tuned yesterday and it made 176kw. My tuner said it's still running fairly rich. He was unable to lean it out further as it started pinging. He thinks a possible cause for this is there may be oil in the cylinder (perhaps from a piston leak - hopefully that's not the case). Another possibility is that my stock ecu is advancing the timing too much causing it to ping, in which case i need to get a power fc (or a near non-existent sitc). I think the AFR is around 9 (very rich), and the safc shows a correction of only -2 across much of the high throttle (60%) and 0 across the entire low throttle (30%). the pulley thing at the front of the engine (for manual timing adjustment) is set at "10", (whatever that means). This was set by my previous workshop. Current tuner did not change it, saying it shouldn't be any lower than that (down from 14 standard?). First of all, can i just get a rough idea if that looks like a correct safc tune? i don't know but i was kind of expecting a little more variation, not just a flat -2 on high and a flat 0 on low. Also, how does the high/low throttle tune work? one set of corrections for above 60% and another set for above 30%? what about below 30? no correction? secondly, shouldn't all series 2 r33 ecu's be the same? are some known to have more aggressive timing than others? and finally, is 176 reasonable for my level of mods? i was expecting something closer to 190, but the car is still running very rich, so that sort of explains it. Also, i *sometimes* feel a bit of a flat spot, which is followed by a slightly weaker pull. This may or may not be related to the above issues. However this is not evident on the dyno graph. Thanks for your time, guys.
  15. can u do a black one that has the letters black during the day (not clear). I'm only interested if this is possible.
  16. lol yawn u emo fag. congrats scott, welcome to the family!
  17. congrats. looks like ill stick with my safc
  18. seeing as how its ONO, I'll start the ball rolling I'll give you $1000 for it but only before Tuesday.
  19. well... are series 1 and series 2 power fc's the same?
  20. whoa dude 1700?? another *brand new* unit with hand controller was just sold the other day for 1000 flat. if ur willing to go that low, and this will work on a series 2 then i'm interested
  21. dang good on ya amal. well just in case ur loan doesn't go through... I'll take it (cash ready and waiting in my bank account)
  22. what colours are the stripes? (i think theres more than 1 combo) right length to suit an r33? where are u located? If all is good consider it sold
