You can have a good understanding of an ECU's capability by reading it's manual. Power FC manual is readily available on the net, as would be the other ECU's manuals presumably.

Water temp compensation means just what it says really. When the engine is cold it feeds the engine more fuel. As the engine warms up it reduces the fuel fed to the engine till the normal operating temperature is reached.

Sydneykid , you now nothing about the Wolf plug and play as it can do these things and more inc boost MAP or MAF air temp comp and very good idle control etc etc and it uses all the factory sensors and can be used with a hand controller or lap top( i would hate to tune about 4000 sites with a hand set)

People should check the facts before they post bull like you did.

Down load the software and eat your words.

Well this has been a long and interesting post, I've learnt a little, and decided to hold off buying those new injectors for a little while ;-)

However, it's better to be safe than sorry, since leaning out your fuel can be hazardous to your engine's health.

Next time Martin or any other Magazine people are in Perth they should come in to my shop and test some of our cars themselves. Some writers have their own shops selling other products so they support what they sell.

anyone who thinks otherwise has issues.

buster if you are Morg's mate as ur sig indicates congrats on the awesome time ... he told me about it.

in response to your question .... some people want dyno queens only. in no way am i suggesting anyone here is like that but thats one explanation.

maybe the rest of the package is lacking ... look at Donnon's ex soarer .... 300 plus rwkw in a manual soarer ... best was a 13.0 - very poor result, but the car just jept having issues.

im sure there are many more things then just that but theres a couple

tom thanks mate, but to be honest we all have our problems and nightmares with our biggish hp cars but some of us keep working and trying different things till we get there, and can show the full potential of our cars, others I'm sure make up excuses becuse there cars just aren't up to the task even though they've got a dyno sheet saying they've got the HP to do it,

Sydneykid, I have to agree with Steve on this one, I don't think your comparing the new Wolf 3D Ver4, as it shits all over the PFC in so many areas. I'm not going to start an ECU debate but you do have the facts wrong about this one.

Buster, While I'm impressed with the time you have achieved I'm sure you'll understand that not all of us need to rush out to do a 1/4mile to prove anything. I will be taking it to the Motorplex on November the 22nd, when there is an ANDRA drag meet with a fully prepped track, until then you'll just have to hold your horses:D

rb20-calais, I'm sure you'll be happy with the Wolf aslong as you can find a good tuner. It's the same as any ECU, if you don't have a good tuner you won't get good results:D

No Steve sorry it wasn't just aimed at you, as I know you will race and have raced in the past, theres plenty of people I know with big power though that don't race or have raced and just can't get the times because all they've got is a dyno sheet hahaha and not a well tuned car with good midrange/useable power

Your a lucky guy though getting a fully prepped track to race on, Hopefully soon with the new drag strip being opened in Sydney we'll get a fair go too and more then 3 runs a night/fortnight

Yeah, we have a very good facility here. Open racing on Wednesday nights and Sundays. Then they also have started a new class called Sports Compacts (i.e. Jap cars), where you can do head-head racing on a fully prepped track, they also have dyno shootouts, bikini babes etc:D

The 2-way mechanical diff will be going in soon, then all I need is a set of decent tyres and I'm ready to race:D

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
