Small batches are still being made of the Power FC's with the next one being finished on the 25th but production has definately slowed and is messing with business for some reason :P

And with that price will surely raise quite a bit won't it?

Bought one from JPS Trading on eBay just a few minutes ago, $754 US shipped to Sweden.

Only four RB25DET R33 PFC:s left on eBay, better hurry :verymad:

lol, looks like when i decide to ditch my pfc (whenever that time comes) i'll be able to pull some coin for it.

kinda sucks tho as the pfc is possibly the best drop in replacement for our motors, aem is fickle and works half the time and the others are just horribly expensive or dont support maf.

My supplier still has a bundle... maybe apexi' is just messing with us to make a quick buck?

But i did hear a while ago that it was becoming hard to make a buck in the performance parts game over in japan - i find that a bit hard to believe but i'm not an apexi executive and i dont know what the overheads and supplier costs are.

this sounds about right. its one of the main reason apexi pull out of the d1 in japan and move over to the drift series in the US. they said there wasnt a big enough market for there products or something!

also my supplier still got many of them too :)

Straight from the horse mouth so to speak.

Hey Chris,

And i quote

As for the Power FC’s well the rumors are kind of a bit true but not completely, we can still get hold of most of them except for the R33 GTST, R34 GTT which are discontinued and there is no stock of. The S14 Series 1, S14 Series 1 D-Jetro, MR2 SW20 and the GC8/GF8 (A~C) are also discontinued but there is still a limited amount of stock available of these units. Everything else is fine, maybe not in stock but still under production. There will be stock of everything except the discontinued models listed above by the end of December for some and by the end of January for others.

What I have said in that they are discontinued isn’t to say that they will never be coming back into production but as they can not say when they plan to be they have classed all of them as discontinued.

Well hopes this helps a little.

why doesnt everyone just wait and see what apexi brings out next

im sure there will be a replacment for the pfc and im sure it will be better

They probably will...but no doubt it'll be more expensive and have a host of features that I do not want or need :)

      You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.

      98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.

      95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
