Hey, does this include the price for purchasing the product.

If so you are looking at $2000 for the plug in microtech for the R33. I have one of these and it works great. If you need some advise om me. I could also rfer you to the guys that did mine. (if your in melb).

The LT-12 microtech is also cheaper but not the plug in version.

Cheers.

syndey kid, how hard are autronics to install and tune. The self learning package that is?

They are roughly the same price as a new power fc.

And you chuck away the airflow metre, which is always a good thing! Save up to $300 for the z32 one that you dont need.

have you had any experience with the autronic self learning packages on the rb25dets. Good results? Have had a rough price of around $2500 installed and tuned.

cheers

Sorry bolf, that post didn't answer your question.

Bin a while since I used an Autronic, on the BMW SuperTourer. The Motec self learn is more recent use for me and they are similar in execution. Self learning is great if you have a fast and wide lambda sensor, but they cost $2K on their own. Trying to tune using a narrow and slow lambda sensor ($300) is a waste of time. The self learn software was about $800'ish if I remember rightly, the whole M8 Pro package was around $5K, so that sounds right.

I recommend a lot of Motec self learn systems for guys with no easy access to dynos, expensive but works brilliantly. We tuned a car in 2 laps at Bathurst a couple of years ago, just drove it around. Took it back to the dyno I could barely squeeze a few horsepower out of it despite a couple of hours of trying. Damn accurate, better than many tuners I have seen.

Hope that helps

my mistake around $1700 + install/tune. which was roughly $700.

Is it true that the autronic and the nissan coils, can be a bit of a hassel? It may be an involved ecu, but that can be a good thing, giving more options, functions, and settings to control. In the right hands i think it could work well.

just need to know how compatable they are to a rb25det motor...

      I know this one’s the BB one. My tuner did make mention about the actuator. I am curious about the VCT as well

      Might also needs a stronger actuator with the right preloading. With older 2019 built bush G3 units, BB upgrade or 21U housing down size makes a pretty decent gain in response as well.

      Need help/advice with bearing taper clearance, eccentricity and arp studs.

      By Desean Strickland · Posted

      Hey lads  so im finally putting together my rb30 forged bottom end and ran into an issue. I measured my main bearing clearance with arp main studs torqued to 60 ft-lbs using ACL H series STD size bearings and standard, un-ground crank shaft journals and got an oil clearance reading of about 1.3 thou measuring straight up and down and about 2.8 thou measuring at a 45 degree angle (just above and below the parting line). My machine shop said they measured the main tunnel and it was all within spec (they didnt say the actual measurement) and to go with a standard size bearing, which i have done and the clearance is too tight, I'm guessing because of the extra clamping force from the arp studs distorting the main tunnel. I was wanting to run about 2.5 thou main bearing clearance.  My questions are: 1. could i just use the HX extra 1 thou clearance ACL bearings? that would fix my straight up and down clearance making it about 2.3 thou, but then would the side to side clearance be too big at around 3.8 thou? 2. what actually is the recommended main bearing clearance for measuring near the parting line / side to side. i know its supposed to be bigger as the bearing has some eccentricity built into it but how much more clearance should there be compared to the straight up and down measurement? at the moment there is about 1.5thou difference, is that acceptable or should it be less? 3. If i took the engine block + girdle back to the machine shop and got them to line bore the main tunnel (like i told them to do the first time, but they said it didnt need it) what bearing size would i buy? the STD size bearing shells already slide in fairly easily with no real resistance, some even falling out if i tip the girdle up-side-down. If im taking material out of the main tunnel would i need a bearing with extra material on the back side to make up for it? this is probably confusing af to read so if something doesn't make sense let me know and ill try explaining in a different way. My machine shop doesn't come back from christmas break until mid January, hence why i'm asking these questions here. TIA for any help or info

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I bought the model back in Japan in Feb. I realised I could never build it, looked around for people who could build it, turns out there's some very skilled people out there that will make copies of 1:1 cars or near enough. I'm not really a photo guy... but people were dragging me in a group chat for the choice of bumper as someone else saw the car before it was finished as they are also a customer of that shop. I took the photo in the above post because I was pretty confident that the lip would work wonders for it. Here's some more in-progress and almost-done pics. It gives a good enough idea as to what the rear looks like!   I have also booked in a track day at the end of January. Lets all hope that is nothing but pure fun and games. If it's not pure fun and games, well, I've already got half an engine spare in the cupboard

      Well, do ya, punk? Seriously though, let's fu<king go! The colour and kit looks amazing on the car. Do you have any shots from the rear? I don't quite follow how the model came around. You bought the white kit and he modified it to match your car? Looks nuts either way!
