Hello All,

Well my mate was going to give me an Apexi Power FC but after checking the site it is clear that they are not too compatible for Stags. He just imported an Evo FQ320 the greedy bugger. . .

So my question to you learned Turbophiles is:

What other complete units are there for the M35 that I can get. .

Ben at North Shore Prestige said the a Haltec system has been tested on the M35. I think he mentioned a figure around the $2k mark.

Pretty sure it was done Unique Autosport in Brookvale.

Yeah I spoke to Herman at Envy Imports. . . they do a small basic one for around a grand, then the $2k one and the $3500 one. They didnt have any figures to show regarding improvements etc. . so I didnt get one but happy to review once some real stats are available.

Was told to expect at least 10% gains in power fuel economy etc etc. . .but I am a "Must see figures" man or someone swears by it motto. .

Yeah, I have spoken to Herman as well.

They were using the 350z standalone ECU as a piggyback initially.

Cheap one is the "Interceptor", medium is the e11 (I think) and the expensive is the 350z Platinum.

He stated that figures were roughly 10% increase in economy & 20% increase in power...

I have also been told that I can expect at least that with an eManage Ultimate.... Fair bit cheaper too!

Waiting on a response regarding the Vipec as it is stand alone also.

Will let you know.

thats the place.

I know Jetwreck has planned to do the Haltec, he is expecting around 240kw from memory.

But he is also highflowing the turbo as this is now a necessity. We should know some results on the turbo in the next few weeks.

The basis one sounds like what I would like to do. small performance gain fuel economy gain.

The next few weeks will yield some interesting results.

I'm all for high flowing the turbo in my M35 too, probably won't be looking at it for a few months though.

I was talking to Unique Auto Sports about it the other day, they said Engine Management would be a problem ;)

When someone finds a good, cost effective solution be sure to let me know :)

i think your best bet is the Vipec/Link computer. Have a read of Skidkid's successfull installation in his S2 auto (and dirt garage's OTT praise). The Vipec has the computing power to do it all and it is a current model still being improved and supported (unlike the PFC). The main thing is to find a competent installer (as skid kid seems to have found). A new computer will not on its own necessarily produce a lot of power but it will get the maximum from any mods. It will very likely produce some economy though because Nissan's standard settings are conservatively rich.

since an aftermarket ECU install is really only as good as the tune, i'd recommend sussing out local tuners first and seeing what ECU they prefer to install and tune. Unless you like limping/towing your car across Sydney to get something looked at one day if there is a problem/question you have.

Well, I have just been talking to Trent from Status Tuning down here in Melbourne's South East.

Since I have an eManage Ultimate I have been talking to him about which way to go.

Here was his last reply (quick sum up)

"To be honest i reckon you could get 95% of the result with the emanage ultimate (get the optional map sensor and harness) the Vipec/Link install will require far more work to get right or even to the same point as the emanage. The auto control is the trickiest part and the emanage seems to integrate pretty seemlessly. What size turbo are you looking at? and eventual target AWKW? as these two really determine the best ecu direction. say 250 as a max and i would go the emanage route, say 300 and up and the extra work with the LINK/VIPEC would pay off in the long run"

Hope that helps guys.

If you need to go the eManage Ultimate, there are usually a few floating around in the For Sale threads.

I was looking at getting the OBD II software to monitor the functions of the car to get a better understanding of what the car is doing.

looks to be pretty cool software with the ability to monitor all sorts of functions under the bonnet. I can see that it works on the V35 and using a bit of "leaping faith" I would think it should also work on the M35.

Understanding how and why this car performs ma help getting the right tune.

Could be wrong though.

Where are you getting this software from & how much?

Does it plug into the Consult connection?

Yes, plugs into the Consult connection. Cost is max $215 for the full version with data loger.

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      Hi guys, Sorry to butt in and take it slightly off course, although still on the VCAM subject.  I had VCAM put into my Tomei 2.8 bottom end and I struggle to take off because the engine has very little torque caused by VERY low dynamic compression at 60psi. But once off the mark and especially on boost, the engine rev happily all the way to 8000rpm and makes 630hp at 20psi of boost on E85 at the rear hubs. Has anyone had any similar experience or any suggestions on what might cause this low compression at low rpm? I am in the process of converting it into a 8hp transmission and with this low torque, the engine would not even stay running until the throttle is opened to more than 30% and then I loose all vacuum.

      Last year I got a set of MCA street coilovers for my turbo Forester after my son hitting a concrete gutter/wall on a small bridge causing the whole drivers side suspension to get bent because the rain just made the car slide out I love them, I think they were $2400. even had a hiccup of have the wrong hub configuration (my fault) so got onto MCA and they sent the correct shock ends overnight parts from QLD, for free!  I was very impressed with their customer service and quality of the product

      High temp brake fluid?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      They've had some weird failures on their brake actuators. One of them was because they added some kind of lubricant to the factory fill brake fluid that aftermarket brake fluid didn't have so it would affect the seals. Another was just mysterious, probably internal corrosion or something eating away at Prius brake actuators. Parts alone for those are a few thousand USD so not a cheap fix.
