1. You dont need a turbo timer, do a search, SydneyKid has already clearly outlined why.

2. You have only listed 3 things there, I fail to see where the other 17 units are..........?

3. I dont believe this unit you are after, the all-in-one, exists....?

Yeah I have a TT too, came with the car, used it for a while but now just set it to zero, still it shows my boost, albeit in bar, still it is a bit useless.

And I am not tottally against them, but if you read the following thread, you will see why I believe they are not worth buying.

No offence to anyone that has a TT, but they seem like RICE to me... Your car won't cool down sitting still while running, you need to drive it around slowly so the air flow can cool it. Ever noticed on a hot day that your car gets warmer sitting at the lights, then cools down once you start moving again?

That is the whole explanation (in a nut shell) to why they are not worth having. And that they are a great place for a car thief to hot wire the car from...

All in one, no

but boost and engine management can be controlled in 1, PFC with BC kit. However...forget that idea.

Wolf ECU has a built in boost controller and possibly a turbo timer, also SK said to me he his first choice for EBC with a Power FC is the standard BC kit.

I think Alex is probably pointing to the Auto/no PFC issues there. It would be great to have the management know what the boost is doing, I think that would help a lot.

I guess we will all have to settle for "different strokes for different folks"

Absolutely! You want one, get one, just stating why I wouldn't have one. Freedom of information, all good.

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
