Hey guys,

I recently received a HKS EVC VI (instead of the V I ordered) and have successfully installed it and have it set up to some limited extent (I.e, it reaches peak boost and holds it. I think I was lucky to make it that far).

There are still some features I'd like to be able to tinker with that are listed as features.

Does anyone else have one of these and know what each function in the menus does?

Cheers guys,

Shayde

I have this one. However the manual posted in post #2 is a manual for an EVC 4 (according to your post)

even though it was 5 in the file name. I've found this to be consistent in all english manuals I've found.

yeah, there is alot of confusion all over the place. i spent a while looking for a manual that was for the 4. which seems to be called the 5.

you can get software to set up that controler there is a pc program avaliable

installed mine over the past few days, got hold of an english translation for it, ask me any questions, ill try to answer them as i seem to have figured most of it out. Did the full boost mapping, ie throttle vs rpm boost map.

(evc5 in japan, evc6 elsewhere)

Can anyone advise me which is the best hose to connect the boost sensor to for a NEO engine, photos would also be great. did mine but the hose goes to some sort of electric solenoid box at the top back of engine, wondering if this would contaminate the pressure levels. thanks

Hey Guys bought same controller as well... just wondering what u guys have ur setup @ for a RB25det stock Turbo??

E.g. Base Boost 8psi, Option A= 12psi Option B=10psi and Scramble Boost = 14-15Psi for X sec... etc??? Ta

Hey guys, my EVC 6 reads well above my HKS analog gauge, seems to be a normal thing. Mine reads about 3 psi higher. Mines also set up according to the diagram and holds boost very nicely. My only peeve is that it reads the wrong values.

Hey Shade do u have a aftermarket BOV??? my plumback return is blocked off cuz of my Bovus Maximus BOV... i'm not sure if that affects it???

Where is ur middle nipple (1) attached on ur Stepping motor.. mine is off the compressor that returns to the Turbo.., Nipple 0 is on the actuator n nipple 3 is off the return line that Tee off the regulator and the plenum... sound about right????

What was ur Initial Setup.. E.g. Max Wastegate boost @???

SeS,

Yeah, I have a low mount, internal gate. Aftermarket turbo and BoV. Same block off thing going on. I can't remember exactly without looking and it's cold outside :rofl:

Okay, had a look. First nipple (on the left with the bracket facing backward) goes to actuator on the turbo. Middle nipple goes to intercooler piping. Last nipple on the right goes to the same line that all my boost gauges feed off.

My initial set up.. Just set my max boost to 12psi with boost warning set to 13.5psi and boost drop set to 3psi. All the offsets at 0.

Hope that helps!

Shayde

My middle nipple doesn't go back to the intercooler nipple cuz it doesn't have one.. but instead it goes back to the compressor line which goes back to the turbo... not sure if that it?

I'll try to get a nipple on my intercooler n hook it up to that.. n c if it makes a difference

Where do u set the boost warning??? the next option after setting up max boost/stable boost is choosing the boost level for option A & B......, where is the boost drop set option???

    • Yup but for me its the HR ! Cut my teeth on the old holden 6s in the day ! And here's me thinking in the day it was also the 300ZX and the Mitsubishi GT3000 ! All, as well had good lines, but always seemed to need finishing off, style wise.
    • A 180SX has a much better look than a FD. The roofline is far superior being a fastback. It's popups look better. In a world where we all subconsciously add a little bit of low, and wheels of our preference, it's just more handsome than the FD is. The FD just looks 'bubbly' in comparison. It can come down to preference, sure. But "The FD is the BEST looking (on appearances alone) 90's JDM car without question?" Nah. Plenty of questions lol. I could think of 8 cars I think look fundamentally better, and probably a handful of ones that look about on par with a FD. (like say a SW20 MR2) I feel people like/overrate the FD because of it's mythicality/rarity, its rotary and it's unpredictable nature. It probably drives great, you can stuff a ton of tyre under there, has a unique sound, light as hell. I feel that people reading this thinking "YOU CANT RATE A 180 ABOVE A FD BECAUSE A 180 IS A CHEAP DRIFT BUCKET" prove the point about bias as to what the car represents, moreso than how it actually looks.. I feel the 80's boxy/squared off look is becoming better looking due to time, and 90's melted soap bar aesthetics have not aged well. (yet?) And this thread is purely about looks :p
    • A red or yellow S15 wins my vote, Ack that it just scraps in with the 90's cars theme, but they are great looking little sports car Next would be a A80 Supra (pre face lift), whilst the A80 has its own issues, I feel is the best looking larger GT car As for the FD, "I" feel that the reason it triggers me in a non-positve way when looking at one, is like looking at a high maintenance pretty girl who you know is mentally unstable and likely to explode for no apparent reason
    • Yes, it's because it has hips and bulges on the top/front surface, a tiny cockpit and roof, and the skin looks like it is stretched over muscle. The proportions are....perfect. Long nose, short rear, short roof. What's not to like? It continues the theme started with the S1, that peaked with the FC, being "looking like a front engined Porsche", while gaining a little more of the 60's Mustang coupe profile and stretching the skin more tightly over the understructure. The FD is definitely colour sensitive though. Like all Mazdas. There are plenty of details on it that changed over the years that were either better or worse, could have been done better the first time and/or never changed for the worse. But...the same can be said for the NSX. In fact, that's probably even more true for the NSX. I've also just worked out that part of the reason I don't like the rear of the NSX is that the integrated wing is too similar to that shitful R33 rear wing.  
    • I wonder if people like the FD because it reminds them of old 60's roadsters and such. It just gives me such a 'roadster/soft cruising' vibe as opposed to anything more hard-edged and purposeful. That, mixed with 90's melted soap bar styling. It's hardly ugly, but it's kinda oddly proportioned to me, relative to about 10 other cars I had a think about based on this thread.
