FYI - Response from Haltech Sales this morning...

Hi There,

I don't know where you heard that we were having problems with our ECUs for the R32,I can assure you that is NOT the case.

I didn't mean to get anything started. I just wanted to know the ups and downs of both systems. I talked to my local Haltech dealer/tuner; they said they were not aware of any recall on the e11v2.

I would like to get a power fc but I will not pay $1200 US or more for a used unit! Then you have to get the software and it's about $250US. So I'm looking at the least $1450US for a used Power FC. That to me is just too much. I can get a NEW E11v2 with the software and the plug and play harness for around the same price.

Now I know people are saying that you can get a new Power FC at different times as Apexi is releasing them a few at a time. I have contacted EVERY Apexi dealer that I can find in the states and they ALL tell me the same thing, they "might" get some in but they're not sure when. I "might" get one if I want to pay for it now and be put on a list and wait 4-6 months. That's nuts!

So I guess my decision has been made for me buy Apexi! From what I understand they are having some issue with their manufacture and are trying to find a different one. I can't believe a company as big as Apexi would be having such an issue with this and with their finances.

that is how it is, Apexia the parent company of apexi was at the state of being declared bankrupt late last year. they are working back now but alot of there high end products are now hard to get ahold of. i was gonna go a PFC for my R34 but the thing is i can not get a hold of a new one because of that problem (similar problem to yours) as for the two systems they are much for muchness the simplicity and tune ability of the PFC. or the slightly more difficult to install and tune e11v2 which does have a few small things over the PFC ( but your not the one tuning it so doesn't matter) either way neither unit is bad. to prove the PFC anyway, i have a mate with a S13 SR20DET with a PFC not a problem and with 398rwkw last i saw it on a dyno it speaks for it's shelf. but to hard to get a hold of these days so enough said :)

^^^ ive been buying PFC from steve at access in melb http://www.accessauto.com.au/ as they ALWAYS have stock (no r33 though) other guys keep you waiting for ages claiming no-one has any stock.... genuine dealers have pretty good stock though as they are considered priority.

      gauge needle removal

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.

      R-chassis INNER tie rod torque spec?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task

      Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.

      gauge needle removal

      By JC71 · Posted

      I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.

      Ok...its taking me long enough to finally do this.  Feck financial security...heart disease will get me soon enough anyway So welcome to the garage..."Clem" Belsil80 has been running a 370Z in Super TT series. So after entering with him in last years Winton 300 i figured I  need my own car. Seems SAU Vic race cars need to be yellow....{tick} Reckon with enough motor i will be able to make up for the lack of talent and stay ahead of the 370Z... but the LS powered S13 and E36s are a ways up the road Aim is to have a car that doesnt stop or turn but has a bit of shed built motor with jam...maybe some cream  First step is getting this ex drift car log booked I am keeping faithful silver car. As the road-club car gets upgrades the race car wil get the sloppy seconds
