Hey all,

I'm looking at buying a greddy profec b spec II boost controller.

Just wondering if any of you here have one? If so, what are your thoughts and do you have any pics of yours installed?

Anyway, I'm stuck choosing between either black or silver!? I think would prefer black but im not really a fan of the gold text on it, especially the huge logos on the top. (Yes, i guess im very picky - especially when it comes my car!)

I have always had my boost controllers mounted just behind the steering wheel. Again, any pics that would influence my decision either way would be appreciated, espcially if you have it installed behind the wheel of a 33!

Cheers!

Mate, I've seen this sort of thread a few times now - have a search!

But anyway, I run one in my 32 and one in my stag, no dramas and a good bit of kit (read: hasn't done me wrong yet).

It might be better to have it hidden to help keep the cops off your back.

hey bro, i got one installed myself. its running from underneath my headunit were the ash tray is... they are very good little unit. holds boost good and controls it good.

mines black. Somtimes if you get some coppers they might know what it is... they can find your solenoid in your engine bay and stuff. i chose black cos its more stealthier..

i got a black one as well! i guess it goes with the interior of the car whilst the silver one would contrast and stand out?

i got mine stuck below the dash above my left leg.

they easy to play around with as well as the place i got it installed did 14psi for high boost which now i've changed to 12psi.

i saw a mates one today and it looked even better that it did in some of the pics i've seen.

leaning towards black.

i like the silver and blue, but dont know if it would look a tad cheap in the flesh? i've never seen one so cant make an informed judgement :)

hey mate, thanks heaps for the pic :)

+1 for black.

Only drama i have with mine is it doesn't beep anymore when it counts down and over boosts :D Can't figure out if it's a setting or something doesn't work anymore.

thanks for all the replies.

i have done more research - i definately want black. :)

now just have to find one! haha either new or used, lets see what happens.

and if you happen to have one you want to sell - please shoot me a PM!

cheers.

i've had both black and silver in the same car. I think I like the black a bit better but they both look good. if you're after one I may actually have one FS.

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
