Pfc Hand Controller (commander)
Nav2k posted a topic in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)
For sale is a power fc FCC3 model hand controller. unfortunately i need a different model one as mines an older model powerfc. to see a compatible list of controllers and powerfc's , see : http://www.apexera.co.jp/carlife/pro_apexi...ics/linup2.html check the model serial no. on ur powerfc and check on the site if a FCC3 is compatible with it. eg. mines SR203. controller basically doesn't have a scratch on it or on the screen and is virtually brand new $260 ono postage extra if outside melb. pm me for more info or more pics. -
yes, thats the shit thing about inverters. they do provide more power though which some cpu's + devices require. but generaly the startup/shutdown's are the preferred option as they can go into hibernate etc when ur at a petrol station...can tell it to power off after 5 min of no power source etc. u need to calculate how much power will be used by ur cpu + other devices incorporated. some cpu's wont be able to operate on something like the 150w opus etc. so u need to be careful and look it up. ill provide a link if u need.

Need Insurance? Want Cheaper Insurance?
Nav2k replied to two40's topic in General Automotive Discussion
thanks a lot gtr-32 mate, its too hard for me to go by phone just for quotes, obviously ill make the effort to wake up in middle of the night if its to arrange a contract or something, but to go around rining around for quotes its a bit hard. ill email the address u gave me. cheers mate. -
i remmeber a while ago a guy was distributing really bright LED's that changed colour etc displayed multicolours etc. looked really nice and even but price tag of like $700. this was 2 years ago , dunno if its gone down yet. but it really looked 100x better than any neon and other led set i've seen. i can't remember which forum i saw this on..i think www.caraudioaustralia.com . didnt pay much attention sorry.

is that a fact or an opinion? i agree the optimum exhaust is not a bolt on and should be customised, but what does ur friend do? does he do tests on them, how does he design them? does he simulate the flow or does he just follow basic rules and keep the piping as straight as possible etc. how does he cater for each engine and how is the costs so cheap when the labour involved to do these things wouldn't be that cheap.. and what do u mean by 100% flow? conservation of mass, velocityx densityx area. what goes in goes out at same mass flow. thats a given

Bosch Fuel Pump In My R33 Gtst
Nav2k replied to mr_r33gtst's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
ur def pushing the stock fuel pump at that sort of power so i think u'll benefit from the fuel pump in that sense. thats where the old pump would be being hindered so its natural that it would go harder at high revs. Def. get a new pump, u could go the cheaper bosch 040 too. -
Need Insurance? Want Cheaper Insurance?
Nav2k replied to two40's topic in General Automotive Discussion
can anyone tell me who to contact for an online quote? its a bit hard for phone at the moment as im overseas. I'm having a hard time getting agreed value and additionally because my car is back in melb its not insured and registered (cancelled those before i left). JCI and shannons wont give quotes through email etc. but dont seem to give agreed value if i change the options around a bit to say its already registered. -
by flow and tests i mean stream lines of the fluid.
-
not only the increase now, but its gonna make a greater increase once u start adding other mods etc. u can argue dyno temperatures etc everything, ofcourse dyno tests aren't conclusive...but chinese copied eexhausts haven't been tested so... ? what do u compare to.
-
small bends will slow down the flow of an exhaust a lot. the flow may also not be as streamlined as before. Especially at the dump pipe where u've got the flow starting from the turbo. Every time u hit a disturbance a lot happens to the flow...its easy enough to just 'bend here' and 'bend there' rather than calcualte where it will it will cause the least bit of hinderence. It's not so much the bends as i said, its the dump pipe cat and muffler that shouldn't distrub the flow. also material considerations but not so much. generally hotter fluid flows faster. thats y ppl put heat wrap on exhausts. all these small things will affect response etc and power maybe not for ur small initial mods but later on as u progress. in the end, ur cars only as good as its weakest link. the impact from coolers etc is much more noticable than exhausts thogh because mainly of these disruptions in the flow causing pressure drops and so on.
-
how r they different (noticably) if they're off a production line? its not dyno queen or dyno figures..y bother putting on mods if u dont care bout the power figure or its effect? when u run or play basketball or something why do u wear better shoes than ones that do the job for $20? sure ur paying a lot just for the brand name but u r paying for their R&D behind it as well. ok it's a completely different example but its similar in some ways. u wouldnt play basketball with copied 'nickys' from malaysia or something the same as copied designs of tomei and hks. At least an exhaust shop will stick to the basics and not try fancy things that tomei/hks have figured out how to use accurately.
-
no ur completely right on a well made custom one. If its been DESIGNED and tested (not just on a dyno) then sure, it can be just as great (the flow may be one thing with mild mods but it may be different once a greater amount flows with more mods). But these well designed ones, incurr costs. The cost of research and design and precision. Look at the CES prices. I beleive when we're talking bout brand vs no name brand, we're implicitly talking about cheap vs more expensive. CES and a few other companies (non jap) on that same level cost more than the jap branded counter part.

a smart car are these gay little cars that the swiss make. its the holden commonwhore of here.
-
u think non branded ones r good just cos u have low expectations and it 'flows' from one end to another. once u start putting more and more mods u see how good some of them are. at the dump pipe end, the flow is important, its where it starts off and if ur flow isnt smooth its gonna be slower down the pipe the rest of the way with all the restrictions like cat and muffler etc. sure u see a 3kw difference only when u whack on the exhaust, but it increases. the jap branded ones u pay for research and design. not just for a peice of metal pipe. IMO same shit with coolers regarding the core, ok piping is important too, but with fluid flow u have slight disturbances that change the flow easily that it slows down a lot. if u wanna be cheap, get a good dump pipe and cat and go non branded the rest of the way (front pipe and cat back). copied designs of tomei and hks where they try to immitate what these companies have done, small imperfections etc, a weld hanging on the inside and its completely screwed. if u think a pipe just flows from one end to another then u should get a copied exhaust. having said all this, i have a non branded one. it came with the car, i cant justify replacing it but if i were to start from scratch now then i probably would shell out.

bahahaha thats hillarious. the celebrations went on long into the night ey.
-
the rims will fit, cooler is a good upgrade for s14s/s15s. injectors wont fit for sure, coilpacks i think wouldnt but not sure. pump will. turbo no...also being 2 smaller turbo's theres no point adapting one of them.
-
if u really wantto minimise loss on cars, u'd buy thruough a business etc. thats what my parents do, and stick to euro cars which hold value for longer, work out residuals etc. buying cars for enjoyment however, ur always going to lose out. i had this option, buy a new car thru the company lease etc. but i said no and bought a relatively cheap 2nd hand car that i'd enjoy. ofcourse the depreciation of my car compared to a new one is hardly anything. my parents arent too happy or understand why i did it, but im sure all of u can.
