Gtr R33 Build

[UWISSH!]

i thort he was actually building an engine not making a wish list, thats y i opened it

[Brockas]

personally get the non vspec if you can as you can cheaply buy a kit from nismo for the diff which will give you a proper 2 way LSD for about $300AUD + fitting.

Wait, what??

Where??

[GTRaddict]

First of all, even in 5-6-7 years stuff wont change, they will get better. A piston is a piston, conrod=con rod. Turbo might spool faster. A better computer might make an apperance. But all in all It will be the same thing.

#2 I want all the information I can get

#3 I'm dead serious about this build, It may not be perfect right now, but I'm working on it.

#4 I plan on building this engine right. I'm a perfectionniste. I dont care if the engine cost 25-30000$ to build, I'm doing it right the first time.

#5 Yes i'm only buying the car next year, but I plan to buy peice by peice until I have enough to rebuild everything.

I'm sorry you guys see this as a waste of time. Sorry for your lost time. I won't bother you guys anymore

Thanks for the info that some of you guys gave me! Really helpful

Cheers

Did somebody say Vi-PEC?

im outa here.....wooshhh!!!

Ash likes to say silly things like "Power FC will do the job" but upgrades his operating system to Windows 7 the day it is released. He like to embrace new computer technology for his desktop but leaves his car computer technology way back in the 1990's. lol

You're gonna stir Ash up again and turn this into a Vipec versus PFC thread AGAIN! lol

But I tend to agree PFC does the job but what ECU to go with pretty much depends on your objective/tuner for the choice of ECU.

Oh yea, I like the handcontroller display too. It tells me what I need to know or to just monitor stuff like knocking.

A $5 hooker with 9 STD's will "do the job" too... time to move on from old mate PFC!

I would rather my ECU do something about the knock rather than tell me it is happening.

[R31Nismoid]

If you had a decent tuner and parts you wouldn't get knock in the first place - touche!

I've not had one knock on the PFC above 30 in 10,000km's!

lol @ you Paul, won't work today, too much caffine makes me silly

Its a good to have feature and this is something I would rather have than to pay for extra features that are of no use to me. But to each his own. I might get a Vipec or something else down the track when I'm after more power but now, the PFC will do everything thats required.

And like Ash mention its more of the tuner that does the magic, not the ecu.

lol actually I will bite on 2nd thoughts... Yes i upgraded to Win7 rather fast, for my main PC.

but....

My media centre is actually running XP on 5yr old hardware… So is my laptop... Why you might ask?

Because it works perfectly for the job that it was designed for... and wait for it... My requirements

Sorry to hijack a little GTRaddict - it's all relevant... kinda
