Got my SAFC 2 installed & tunned by all star garage. All good.

EDIT: realistically SAFC is just a basic A/F ratio signal bender, any decent import work shop should be able to install & tune with no problem.

not sure why you want a bee-r limiter besides scaring people

+1 to All star and Hyper

and everyone else would say check the consolidated workshop

ive had alot of people refer me to all star so i think i'll get the safc neo tuned there, thanks guys!

destroyed the rings? how'd it manage to do that..i didnt buy the limiter to get my skyline to blow flames like about 99.8% of people who have them do, i just want the limiter there as a restraint so i dont rev my car anything over 4000rpm to protect the motor from my p plater right foot -.-" im not saying im a hoon or anything i dont do burnouts or drift all im saying is i cant resist getting her on boost every now and then like im sure most skyline owners do no matter how old they despite the obvious loss in fuel economy :)

BS ^^^

Bee*R is good for only one thing.. scaring people! Letting it crack past someone who just cut you off is the best.

There is a factory rev limiter on the car, setting it for 4k will make the car a nightmare to drive in the city.

If you don't have enough self control to drive it accordingly then buy a mazda 121.

Go ahead and install it. When it destroys your already fragile oil pump, you'll know what we mean.

Oh yeah, and I was a P-plater with a powerful Skyline. Went the 4 months without passing 3k. Self-restraint really isnt that hard. Otherwise, you've got the wrong car.

why do people buy high powered skylines and dont pass 3k...why not buy n/a :)

I'm an apprentice mechanic... My car is tuned very rich, so even driving it easily it uses a fair bit of fuel.

Plus I managed to lose my licence WITHOUT passing 3k, so not sure how I would have gone if I did have a heavier foot...

I'm buying a slow daily, so not a worry.

even setting it at 4k reving to that you will still make noises once youve hit limit ive played with all the settings on the bee-r suprisingly even at 2k limit you shoot flames and make gunshot noises but yeh

if you want to set limits buy a pfc and you have 2 units in one

I'm a P plater with no self restraint, still have my license and have travelled 30,000 in my first 6 months of driving

Lol you siad you have no "self-restraint".

That means you are saying you don't restrain yourself from doing anything in your car and that you havn't been caught yet :(

BTW GL with the sale of my old rod :)

why do people buy high powered skylines and dont pass 3k...why not buy n/a :(

I'm too chicken, anything over 50% throttle on this car scares me :)

I have no problem revving the Corolla near red line (6k) everywhere I go as even if I do that with foot nailed down the car will still be going at snail pace... although I hate that horrible engine noise when that little 1.8 N/A is revved near red line, sounds like its dying.

Lol@not revving past 3 or 4k, how do you guys even get anywhere.

RAC suggests you should accelerate from 0 to 20km/h in 5 seconds or longer :)

aahahah even at at 4k theres a fair chance if u smash into the limiter ur still putting the oil pump and turbo and pistons in danger, i dont understand how its so hard to drive with a bit of restraint, if u cant u prolly shouldnt have licence, let alone a skyline givving the rest of us a bad name,

skyline arent that powerful and fully hectic that u need to restrain it to drive safley,

FAIL

rhys please explain how the bee*r damages the engine. i was thinking of getting it to scare the spiders that live in my exhaust and not old people :(

he mentioned something about it destroying the owners exisitng fragile fuel pump?

    • I have copied the images in the original post from photobucket to the SAU servers to make sure they stay available.
    • Mate you saved be from dying in the Perth summer. AC wasn't changing direction and just going into diagnostics mode fixed it. You're a legend and I would shout you a beer if I could!
    • Unfortunately effort gone to waste, you will have substantial issues with how the manifold and wastegate have been integrated. You would be so much better off with a modified stock manifold like this: https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25detexgatedmanifold/   OR literally just getting a off the shelf Sinco or 6Boost manifold as myself and others have mentioned.  
    • Yuck. But it's kinda the same principle, moving timing around to make car run bad but sound good.... I went for a more spirited tuning drive to iron out a few things. Car no longer stalls, and it loved to dip RPM low when you clutch in. After tuning this (and the 4-5 tables that HPTuners/LS1 OEM ECU wants for idle air correction) it's now behaving somewhat normal. All expected because there's a new TB, new Intake manifold and that new TB which is 102mm vs 78... has an entirely different IAC passage which is smaller because ????? Unfortunately at this point I went to make further fine tuning changes to avoid it flaring up, you know... _tuning_ the HPTuners dongle died. Well to be more accurate - The USB cable died in a fashion that anyone who has ever charged a phone will recognize. After the app demanding I resync it 50 or so times (which all 'succeeded' but all failed) the device does not want to sync and I've logged a ticket with support to see if it's fixable. US Support said it was a 'storage issue' but after removing the SD card inside it and formatting it/fixing it the issue does persist. Unfortunately usually the fix is "Turn in your old dongle and pay $700 for the upgraded one" it's cheaper because I get some free licence credits I unfortunately don't need. However I'm 10 minutes down the road from HP Tuners AUS/VCM so at least I won't need to post it, and logged a new ticket for support over here. Definitely drives different. My SOTP dyno believes it's probably making 310-320kw instead of the 280 before.  It scrambles for traction a little now whereas it previously different. It drives like a bigger cam car up top even though the cam is smaller, likely due to the cam not being advanced 6 degrees. The timing is deliberately low and the fuel is very rich so who knows if this will improve on the dyno. It may, imperceptably. Also funny is removing the pineapples definitely makes the car squat more and axle tramp less. So this behavior of having more top end, squatting more, and scrabbling for traction more makes me think = more power. But I could have just been sitting on the threshold of that kind of behavior before. Time will tell if my butt dyno is calibrated right. I need the exhaust leaks fixed before dyno tune for obvious AFR related reasons - I repositioned the pipes but I'm not confident it's fully sealed even if it is better. At least the car does drive around while I cannot tweak/tune it for now. And I have aircon again. medium success!
