Arr This Sucks hard...

i have just bought my self a r32 Gtr Fresh from jap

And i have found it not only has full track setup

but it also has aftermarket turbos and hks fcon v pro GOLD

and from reading all the post about it.. iam better of shelfing

the fooker and getting my self a power fc

cause of the lack of tuners around.. since iam in brisbane...

champ

keep the Fcon you got. they are great ecu.

just find the tuner can tune it.

i get my pro v tuned at GT auto garage in newmarket........very happy with dave s tuning :(:(

just saw this post.

i am sure GT auto do well with HKS

Hi guys...just adding to the thread and i know its been written about before but...im chasing an ecu for a Auto R33 (as i dont really want to go to the trouble of $$$manual conversion, power fc, clutches etc, etc. Greddy Emanage ultimate or HKS FCON V Pro?????....(or perhaps even another system?? I have a few modifications, Hypergear Hi Flow, FMIC, 3" Exhaust, Spitfire coilpacks, Boost T and other little goodies...and am looking at 040 fuel pump, S15 manual injectors and Z32 AFM soon. So would just like any information on which of these two is better for an Auto or perhaps another manufacturers product that wont have me robbing a bank....

cheers

GTautogarage is very good at tuning HKS ECU as they one of HKS suppliers in Brisbane,they also very friendly

I also has HKS Fcon Vpro installed in my r32 gtr.

here is the links:

Nice thanks for the info...is the emanage ultimate a bad ecu?...I have only heard good things about the FCON VPRO and am currently looking into getting one brand new either from here or the states, or perhaps and adaptronic, but was wondering what the greddy ecu's are like...anyone out there running one or has run one some feedback would be much appreciated cause on paper they appear to be an good ecu choice for an auto, but reading the forums people don't seem to go much on them lol...

cheers

When I had my 32GTR, it had a HKS fcon v computer (gold looking thing) and the tune was okay, but a little lean, and advanced on full boost.

It worked quite well, save for a few little glitches from bad connections on the harness.

Had it tuned at BD4's in Sydney by Tom. He had a lot of experience with these computers.

Bought a navigator for it but it wasn't compatible to my older computer.

They are pretty much a stand alone ecu and have 32x32 mapping.

Being a MAP sensor based ecu, there are more maps to tune and get right, compared to MAF setups.

Also with multiple throttle bodies like the GTR, they are harder to tune again, but if done right are great!

Ended up going to a PFC with 80mm AFM's.

How does it compare price wise, with say the Vi-Pec or Djetro ?

GT Auto Garage are the people to see reguarding the Fcon tuning. Dave is outstanding with his tuning capability and knowledge on this ecu. Highly recommended....

I have 1000cc injectors, and an Fcon V Pro on my RB and it starts without fail. No waiting for it to cool after a long run or hard driving, cold starts are fantastic.

Awesome, It looks as though is similar money to Vipec and it was going to GT auto anyway so :)

    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
