Hey Paul,

Yes I have warranty card and the birth certifiicate.and velcro stickers, and the manual is in jap.

Very nice to drive with compared to stock, really smooth , But that may be the Tomei Pump and the Hks Gt-Rs helping too lol :D

Edited by gtstcoupe

those f**king flamin mongrels have increased there unit price fromm 882 - 1212

I will find out why and let you know, but it looks like these guys area no go now.

Why does this have to happen to me.

imagine how i am feeling right now

i will have the cash for it in a couple of weeks and now they have dogged me. Thats the thanks i get for helping them out with business

I emailed them last night, they told me us1200 del to aus, ive just emailed them back to say i still want the unit n cont but they wont be recieving thier shipment for 2 weeks. I dont want a 2nd hand one and this way i have a warrenty with it. They also said that they have a long waiting list so i asked politely cos im an aussie its hard to get in contact with them being the hours diff n when i work that if they could make sure i get 1 from this shipment. i hope this works!!!

Ive seen them on ebay for well over aus1350 so paying a little extra to make sure its new in the box with warrenty is worth it i believe.

Tell them to get f**ked and you will take your business else where

I have found others in similar price range from other apexi official dealers in the usa, i am sure you can too

This time i am going to keep quiet about it until i get one.

ha ha ha ive been searching and keep finding other shit n surfing, i can understand how they put the price up but i dont see why sooooooo much. Shit happens hey, the gov puts the prices up on juice for my car n i dont see how but it has to be done the reckon. The way i see it, in a years time or so the power fc unit will be 1200 without the controller. Im thinking more in the lines as an investment at the moment more then a toy to play with.

Because the pricks figured out that they cost bucket loads more over here eg 1500 second hand and then they got a mass flood of australians who want to order and they go :) Lets jack the price cause we know they are still better off and we can make a killing out of those kangaroo humping dundees

As my ol' man says, wod ya do, shit happens. As i said, im seeing it as an investment. Think of what houses were 5 years ago n the demand to them now. The way i see it, mine will cost about 2k for the unit n counting, but in the meantime i have something i can use to make my car better yet more efficient whilst having fun. Im trying to be the devils advocate i spose. Yeah its a dof the up'd the price but tell me another unit that would do the same. Ive researched a bit about ecu's n found that this is one of the very better ones. Im happy to pay the price for it, if people dont understand why, fair enough but im going to be having one whilst they dont. I think i come out the winner IMO.

Sounds to me like you're trying to convince yourself more then us :banana:

The price was one of the main points too... if it hits 2k at any point, might as well go Haltech or something...

yeah maybe your right, ive just heard such good reults from the power fc, honestly cant find much tuning info about the haltech. Im happy paying US1200 del for the results ive heard thruout this website n beyond. Im seem to find that alot of people are using these units n r happy with them. Im able to find more info on pwoer fs's then any other unit i believe available for my car n needs.

Hey Guys,

That so sucks, I wonder if its Direct tunning putting up the price or Apexi USA,

I am really hoping its not put up beacuse of the reasons we are thinking, If so i and all of us would be very very dissapointed in them :ermm:

$1200 is still good for new, But $1000 was better.

I may send an email and see what going of for you guys cause this really sucks,And makes me not happy Jan. :D

Well they replied back and said that they put it up because apexi was getting complaints from other companys about direct tunings low price " allegedly"

Anyways my persistant searching has paid off and i have found one unit for even less then there previous great price. So when i have purchased hopefully goes through today if anyone is interested pm me and i will tell you who they are etc...

But not until i sought myself out first this time :(

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
