hi jag,

try this thread http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=37720

I remember him having a few.... EVC 3 & 4. If it's for the GTR either a 3 or 4 will do. They both use the same stepper motor, and I'm sure have the same functions. I think he was selling these for $250 for the EVC3, and $250 for the EVC4... WOW they were cheap.

Good Luck

Thanks Simon, already got in contact with this guy and he said that he was going to find out whether he had any evc4's left, still awaiting for his reply....

Your car is coming up very well down at Ice, mine is the silver one beside yours getting virtually the same upgrades..... The cars look virtually similar with the xenons, no. plates, mods....

I've got an EVC 4 going in mine as you've probably already seen. On the advice of Ben & ICE, it seems alot of people are going the HKS way now. Hopefully my car should be ready today... it's been there since MAS :cheers: Either way, I have faith in the boys there, so far they have been very striaght, upfront & genuinely honest about my concerns.

PS: Hope you haven't pinched my no plates... I'll probably head down there tonight, as i'm starting to have withdrawal symptoms.

Well Ive been talking to the same blokes as you have and they swear by the evc4...

Yeah they better hurry up and finish yours so they can finish mine, apparently yours is priority at the moment.....

Will have to go for a cruise one day and compare both setups.....

JAG: A comparison would be good.

DAVE: I learnt the hard way, that the HKS Model description is a little confusing. So here goes...

What I got is known as the HKS EVC 4 in the US, however in japan it's know as a HKS EVC 3. What's known in the US as a EVC 3 is known as a EVC 2 in Japan ... get the drift. The model your referring to for around $900 is known in Japan as a EVC 4 with the the seperat display unit similar to the blitz model. In the US it is known as a EVC 5... Other words US seem to add a 1 infront, the same way they do with their "vehicle model years" eg: WRX 04 as we know it, is to them know as a an WRX 05. Typical yanks!

    • They usually get made by hand as part of any such swap.
    • Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?
    • I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".
    • No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.
    • Does anyone know if this is off centered? Looks like it, when I indicate to go right, but turn my steering wheel slightly left it cancels (was always like that even before I started messing around with it) was wondering if anyone else has the same issue?
