Hey was on ebay looking at stuff for r33's and came across this

anyone know anything about it, such as if it actually does anything, screws with your car, worth it, dodgy

just a curious finding.

page doesnt work, but i can tell you anything from ebay that says it will give you 15hp is dodgy

if its what i think it is, it tells the ecu that theres colder intake temps so the ecu can run more timing, not clever.

If you want a tune, get a safc as a minimum

LOL! Who knows what that thing does, it looks so dodgy I wouldn't go near it.

How is fuel economy increased when it tricks the ECU in thinking the car is running colder, hence need more fuel = reduced fuel economy.

No such thing as Cheap Horse Power.

Hey the first two are actually based on very sound concepts :( (although on such a small scale efficiencies are minute which is why it confuses people, could work but doesnt etc.) think capacitors and water running down a drain, the third is just a joke, breaks the conservation of energy law!

    • It's almost certainly a reluctor generating an "AC" waveform. No, ECUs don't generally read those - they're usually set up for PWM square wave 0-5v stuff.
    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.
