What Is Next?

[NYTSKY]

Hi all,

After purchasing my R33 about 2 months ago now.I have followed some modification guides to get more from my car.And im wondering what to do next.

Im not after huge power,just a nice consistant and reliable figure.

So far mods include: 3inch exhaust

3inch split dump pipe

Apexi pod filter(with alloy pod box)

tube and fin intercooler kit(will be fitted soon)

cushion button clutch kit(fitted next week)

And im running a constant 9psi

Im thinking of getting better spark plugs and a walbro fuel pump.Ofcoarse id like to get a power fc.But ive been looking at the apexi SAFC2.

All input appreciated.

CHEERS

Dave

Get the PFC, opens up a lot of options and a lot more power too

if youre happy with the power output of the standard turbo then go with the SAFC and provided your coils are good, youd be getting close to 300hp on 12psi and for many people, thats enough for the occassional squirt.

gap your plugs to .8 from memory and your fuel pump should be good enough all though its always nice to know youve got a safety net in regards to flow should you replace it. Especially as theyre over 10 years old now.

Youve got all the other supporting mods there such as FMIC, cooler and clutch.

Whats controlling your boost? Those $22 spring bleed valves on this site would be ok for your application

I have the little pocket rocket tubotech manual boost controller.Bloody awesome little product.

Cool.Thanks mate very interesting stuff.Seeing as the power fc is now phased out i might purchase the SAFC2.

Id like to hear from people who have the same mods i have and has bought a SAFC2.I guess if its tuned right i would expect smoother power delivery and ofcoarse an increase in KW.

Where would i be able to purchase one at a good price?

Hey mate,

1. A Bosch 040 500hp intank is perfect

& will set you back $205 delievered

Australia Wide off Ebay.

2. Obviously, a stand alone ECU is much better

than an SAFC. Nevertheles, its still an upgrade.

My old set-up:

3" front pipe

4" HKS Dragger cat-back

Apexi SAFC-2

Apexi LM Intercooler

HKS Mushroom filter.

HKS EBC GEN3

It made 193rwkw on 10psi (stock boost)

198.9rwkw on 12psi

211.2rwkw on 14psi

I have a PFC now with a GT3071R.

I am selling the SAFC2, pm if interested.

Hope this helps,

Cheers,

Bill

Does the SAFC2 eliminate things like misfires and such?

It will get rid of r & r with proper tuning by not allowing the AFM to see the full 5.1V i think it is

Misfires will be due to your plug gap and/or coilpack condition.

Mine was tuned!

R/R mode would still occur during

cold night drag meets.

yeah that shows the limitation of the SAFC. perhaps have a dyno run late at night if the workshop will open

Just so you know Dave, your nuts. Pissing away money worse than me hahaha
