Abo Bob Posted August 23, 2006 Author Share Posted August 23, 2006 The secret is out! I collected the parts, Greg from Autosport Engineering did my manual conversion. Great guy, nothing is a problem. In and out in 3 days. Not expensive either. I've got a Jim Berry rebuilt R33 GTR clutch in there. PowerFC was today tuned by Mark at Hills Motorsport. The lower line on the graph is before the ECU change. The upper is the after obviously. He spent a lot of time on it and you can tell. It's much smoother than the other ECU and no big clouds of black smoke out the back any more. I forgot to get a graph of the AFR's but they were off the scale before. I'm still running low boost as I have run out of injector head room. I will get it onto a Dyno Dynamics dyno (hopefully one I've been on before) at some stage to give people a more easily tranferable idea of the power. Of course I'll also head out to the strip at some stage. Does anyone have any comments on the power curve?

Abo Bob Posted August 23, 2006 Author Share Posted August 23, 2006 For all those that have pm'd me and msn'd me this morning it cost $1500 for Greg to do the conversion. I supplied the parts. I wrecked a GTT to get the parts. If I hadn't done that I would suggest that people use an R33 gearbox because they use push type clutches rather than the pull type that the R34 box has. Push type clutches are always cheaper than the equivalent pull type clutch. For general reference, R32's and R33GTST have push type and R33GTR and R34's have pull type. I used an R33 GTR clutch and got it rebuilt by Jim Berry - check the drivetrain thread for his details. The car ran fine on the stock ecu but it now has a PowerFC in it.

Beer Baron Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 yeah about time the slusher went out the window! lol. just digging. that is a larg amount of power there! especially for stock injectors. graph looks weird as, I dont really know what to make of the curve. I've never really looked at an mdx before. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/131484-did-some-minor-interior-mods/#findComment-2434339 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beer Baron Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 ahh, shit eh. that sounds about right to me, 480s would be well maxed at 300rwkw. yes, it seems the sard options are the go these days for the 25neo.
