now that the power fc is gone (or going) what ecu's do people on this forum recommend?? mind you its for a rb25det

i have been in one running a microtech and it seems to do the trick, but any other suggestions wold be good.

cheers

UNLESS I SEE A PRESS RELEASE OR SOMETHING WRITTEN ON THERE WEBSITE ABOUT IT...THIS IS BULLSHIT ABOUT POWER FC'S

THE RUMOR HAS BEEN AROUND FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS NOW AND I STILL SEE PLENTY OF POWER FC'S AROUND.

cheers

wel there is a whole other thread about the pfc's being discontinued but anyay, what ecu you use really depends on your tuner. if your tuner recommends wolf then use wolf. if they use microtech use microtech. this applies even if the pfc isn't being discontinued.

It's the same reason the Wolf V400 was discontinued, no more chips.

yep and i just read it and what proof is there...you have just shown me what other forums are talking about....so untill there is proof im still waiting....

there are still dozens of pfc's for sale second hand

you just can't buy any new, well some suppliers may have say 1 or 2 in stock

but no new units are being made, the nec processor used is end of life from NEC so they had no choice, it is unclear if apexi will somehow use another processor type, they did for the fd3 rx7 which has the 78f4 cpu instead of the older (out of date) 78p3 cpu. so unsure at this stage.

its not like all powerfcs just magically blew up yesterday, its just its not for sale brand new for the three gtst models

I have been trying to get my hands on a PFC for the last week. No one has them anymore (RB25DET)

I'd say that's pretty good proof :P

I got an email from a supplier in Japan saying that whateva stock is out there is whats left - the "new" version I was advised will be available mid next year.

P.S anyone got one they don't want anymore!

see if these guys have stock (ring them)

there should be quiet a large array of them in circulation 2nd hand u just gotta find them

Thanks Paul!

Tried all the Ebay ones - all sold.

JPS is the one who advised about the release date of the next version for the RB25DET and he is also out!

Thinking that yahoo japan auctions is bout the only place left

can you post the email u got from jps?

Crap I have already deleted it! I will get him to resend it. He mentioned that he had 20 on backorder and they are all taken (was one left yesterday morning but by the time I saw the email was too late!) and after that there was no more till mid next year with the new release.

Il post the email when I get it resent!

Alright, I just managed to purchase one on ebay for ECR33 - this seller had 3 left (well now 2) a little bit dearer but meh!

Cost me $1095.00 + $16.00 delivery. I am definitely too impatient to wait until next year for one! Delivery expected of b/orders within the next 2-4 weeks.

Microtech LTX12s is what i will be using in mine

Ive ran Microtechs on my prevoius cars and they have been fantastic - dont listen to the rubbish of they use more fuel - it just means the tuner hasnt done their job properly

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
