Hi guys,

I am slowly building my parts up for my turbo conversion. Currently i am running an rb25de. Just wondering wheteher i should get a safcii (as i know others have had good results) or should i just pay the extra few hundred dollars and go straight for the pfc ?

Which will be better in the long run as this is what i also plan on getting done,

- r33 series 2 turbo

- BATMBL split dump, high flow cat

- 3 inch cat back

- fmic

- walbro fuel pump

- standard gts-t injectors

- electronic boost controller

- BOV (undecided on which type)

Also be doing a brake upgrade either to larger rotors and maybe 4 - 6 pot calipers. Or just doing a full porsche brake upgrade.

So yeah any ideas on what i should do ?

Cheers

if the engine is an r32 series you have swapped in exactly the same injectors

power fc is the only way to go, no doubts about it

Is it a S1 or S2 engine? S1 have bigger injectors than S2.

Definately go the PFC for that few hundred more you get so many more options than a SAFC.

What is this based off? What size are series 1 and series 2?

    • bro, knowing the Japanese in  the 90's, i wouldn't be surprised if they shared components across their model lineup.
    • Maaaan so many "little" things  i rly hope my old RB20 would be "ok" and not too bad. I try to learn what and what not do i need. I look at crossmember at it looks different...even parts numbers are different. Wiring and all that i rly do not know...yeah someone mentioned the speedo thing. On that yoke clip. I rly do not know what can and cant be done "custom" so that is why iam asking to know and not be suprised 🙂  I know what it looks like  
    • Oh, there's also the gearbox crossmember which will probably be different between the small box and the big box, and the wiring loom will probably need to be modified, because the plugs for the switches etc, will probably be different. And I think the speedo on the small box R34s is from somwhere stupid, like the diff, possibly, so you'd need to work out what needs to be done about that (assuming it is different). I think the thing you need to realise is that the front end of that yoke is a large hollow tube with splines on the inside that mates with the splines on the box's output shaft. It is a dedicated thing - not available "aftermarket". They were made to suit that box, by the car's OEM.
    • You need to buy a Saab Matt, ours had a button that turned all the dash lights off. Any decent aftermarket dash has sufficient brightness control and a headlight input for day/night settings. None of which probably helps OP
    • Yeah thanks...i thought it would be alot more i dont know 😄 I saw some videos on converting push/pull and it seems you need to "drill" the hole for slave(master) cylinder and buy some converter kit. On that front yoke clip i did not even know that is a thing and i need to source that(custom shops do not do that?) But anyway thank you for the info
