Safc II Or Aftermarket ECU..?

[Kaido_RR]

hey,

Car: r33 GTS-T (5spd)

Mods:

HKS Super Drager exhuast

HKS SSQ Bov

Aftermarket Turbo (unknowen what type possible highflow, bigger than stock but not that much)

AirFilter + CAI

R34 GT-T Cooler

Bleed Value

Extra Heavy Duty Clutch ($900 or so)

Running @ .6bar

ok now that is out of the way, my question is, is it worth buying a ecu or should i just buy safc II for the time. I would like to make 300 to 350rwhp out of my car (my end goal) so i was thinking that ecu would be the better idea in the long run.

saying that i am unsure of which ecu to pick from, I live in perth and i know of a 2 good tuning houses which can tune Wolf3d and have had good reason (e.g. SST r32 gtr running 10second 1/4). But some people having being tellin me that Apexi PowerFc is the way 2 go but i dont know anyone who can tune it in perth :confused:

so i am very :confused: @ the moment

p.s after i pick ecu/safcII i will be buying a FMIC

Thanks Mike

edit: I have done a search and come up with general answer but would like some base on my car and it mods thanks

get a FMIC first then save up for a Power FC

btw, whats the difference with an 33 gtst intercooler and a 34 GTT's one ?

[Kaido_RR]

no idea HKS 2times the owner before me (1st jap owner) put it on the car no idea why still small POS

was told that ecu before fmic

[meggala]

the reason people say power fc is that its plug an dplay and if you have epa problems you can jsut plug tour stock ecu in along with the other stock stuff.

power fc would be a good choice s-afc youwould spend your money twice. but would do the job .

the r34 cooler is bigger and more efficentthan the stock r33 one.

[Elithrar]

If you're looking for 350rwkW, do it properly and get a full ECU - you'll save money in the long run.

[Kaido_RR]

meggala i was under the understand that wolf3d was also plug n play? or am i mistaken?

[meggala]

ask the wolf dude he would know but i think they have to ad a few sensors etc the power fc just plugs into the loom where the stock ecu is and you can drive straight to you dyno shop.

cheers

[G0DF4Th3R]

i thought the Wolf3D uses the factory sensors and is plug and play for the 33Ts.. Mikey, in the long run, the ECU would give u more control over the SAFCII in so many ways.. boost, timing, fuel, rotational idle, antilag etc as opposed to the SAFC which is basically a fuel computer..

the 34GTT core is thicker than the 33GTST stock cooler

i think you should get the FMIC in first, then have the ECU put in and tuned

[G0DF4Th3R]

also, when ure aiming for that kinda power levels.. prepare to change ure clutch if u havent already..

[Kaido_RR]

omg antilag :drooling: MY DREAM

edit 1st post me already got a good clutch

[rob77]

Get a license first... and then a brain.

can i ask why u have given this respond?

i seem 2 be getting all the person attacks and i cant understand why i have stop asking stupid question, and general want some info about ecu over safc

[rob77]

Because you have asked this same question over and over and over again in the WA whoretown thread and I am sick and tired of giving you replies when you dont listen to the advice given.

rob, in whoretown it is not here or there, i just ask random , pointless question as the thread said it is whoring (i have stop that now). I now wanted info on ecu types and also befits on safc and ecu. im sorry but if u r sick and tired of me then just dont read my topics and reply in such a way that it is just a personal attack on me

So because its been said in whoretown it isnt valid? You need to get used to the fact that this is a forum and I can voice my own opinion.

[Kaido_RR]

look i dont wish this thread 2 be close becuase i really would like info on the topic. therefore if u wish to say anything 2 me or have a problem with me plz pm me or start a topic in wa so we cna talk about this

[Kaido_RR]

ok after doing a search, on wolf3d i have come to the conuslion that it is the ecu for me, i just have a few question about stuff.

what is the knock snesor..? i read that u have 2 buy an add 4 wolf homuch does it cost?

and would it be wise 2 upgrade injectors and fuel pump after installing wolf?

[Driver]

play nice

[rob77]

You'll need to upgrade the fuel pump before the wolf goes on, as for injectors probably not, just get them cleaned and flow tested before pushing the engine, if 1 injector is down on flow it can blow the engine.

[Kaido_RR]

thanks 4 the info rob dont wanna blow the engine.

What size fuel pump would u recommend (wat size r u running as i wish to run about the same amount of power as u in the longrun)
