I've recently bought a Apexi FC Commander Pro cable with software package, and I used the serials and download passwords to download the software but it won't let me activate the software. It only comes up with registration fails and "check your internet connection". I know I am on internet and I am not behind a firewill or have any port routing. Im suspecting that the Apexi activation server is down! Does anybody know how to contact Apexi via email? I can't get trough on telephone :rofl:

And does anybody know if you can use Datalogit with the apexi cable and box? or do I have to have the datalogit dongle?

datalogit i dont believe works with the apexi pro cable. i am pretty sure datalogit only works with their specific box.

fc tune should however. would be interested in letting me "borrow" the software so i can try and "make it work" >_<

its the english software, i've tried to activate the software several times a day for a whole week now and still I cannot get trough and its annoying the shit out of me. I paid alot for the package and Im going to the dynos in a couple of days. It's a 12 hour drive to the nearest dyno shop so its important I have everything in order before I go =)

I'll try FC Tune beta from the rx7 forum today and see if I get contact with my pfc.

I finaly got a hold on Apexi USA via telefone, and they reset my serial number. They said it was a common bug but after a reset my activation worked after 15 minutes! So now I am a happy puppy :) FC Pro had a very extensive help file, I hope Paul makes good use on it on his excellent powerfc faq homepage :banana: thanks alot Paul33! :)

Finally did you succeed in the registration?

If not I can help you.

I can lend you the software. Which one you want? English or Japanese version.

Can you really make it work?

Can you do installation without registration?

      Nismo coppermix twinplate clutch

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
