What was the number in kronor before taxes etc?

I would suggest yu ring them, if you go to http://www.tractive.se/?id=04 and look for their motorsport link you will find Carl Nelson (who is English) will advise on current prices. he was extremely helpful, and i would think a second transmission would be cheaper, thanks to me paying for the CAD drawings and sending them sample bellhousings et cetera. Remember me at Christmas.... :P

That's a fcuk up service. Make my blood boil to see another person getting jig by those mobs Dave.

There is no doubt that they provide some great products for this sport but the way they do business is just ridiculously stupid.

They charge premium dollar for the one who can pay, sponsor people who can lie for their products and fcuk u around when there is a problem.

The good new is that, it sounds like your shifter rails are bent Dave. The installers of the gearbox should have checked that. Willall racing used to be able to get billet/stronger rails made up. I am not sure if they still can do that but might be worthwhile to give them a call.

How is your R32 going Dave? Will be good to see you at the timeattck meet again.

now you know why i only use Terry at Award Diff and Gearbox for all my gearbox work.

Ive had two OS giken boxes and two Pfitzner dogboxes built by Terry and never has an issue whatsoever.

Simon at PPG is a bit of an arrogant bastard too so that doesnt help.

Due to a legal request from PPG's solicitor, this thread has had to be edited.

Please don't blame me or SAU, but blame the people who cannot argue for themselves when a question of their quality or workmanship is brought up.

      I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?

      I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.

      STOP GOOGLING FAB9 MAKE BORG WARNER EFR KITS FOR THE NC. THEY PACKAGE AN EFR 6758. DO NOTHING ELSE. CAPS INTENTIONAL. THE BEST RESPONSIVE SETUP EXISTS FOR YOUR CAR, AND HAS BEEN PROVEN FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW. IN B4 "BUT I WANT EVEN MORE RESPONSE, IN A SIMPLER, MORE RELIABLE PACKAGE" WHICH IS A LS.
