I am semi-interested in one for R33 gts-t..

but like somebody said.. they're only ~$60 cheaper than normal R33 GTS-t s1 price (these are cheaper than other models).

Can somebody explain why i should be buying one right now to save $60 (meh) rather than just ordering at any other time?

Why has he removed the PFC + Handcontroller package for R33 advertised on there for $1060 delivered about 2 days ago??

If the one on their advertised is $997.85 (current exchange rate as @ today) WITH handcontroller (?) and delivery (?).. what are we saving?

AP engineering version? hope this dosent apply to me
i got a R32 GTS-T and if i can get one definately put me down for one at that price.

I'd be down for that too

Don't forget to cross these off the list, or in fact anybody on the list with an R32.. as you DO NEED the AP engineering version if you have an R32 GTS-T .. come on - you guys should know that!

Predator: as I said in answer to the same question earlier, its about $100 cheaper than normal for an R33 GTS-t unit by the time you add shipping and use the correct exchange rate. As you mentioned, its cheaper again for other models.

Yes it includes handcontroller and shipping.

No offence, but its not my job to convince you :P

I didn't add the R32 GTS-t guys to the list if you check the first post.

2GU UP 2: It should be ok if its one of these..?:

IMPREZIA GC8/GF8 A-C 92/11-96/8 EJ20G PFC 414-F001 H/C 415-X001

IMPREZIA GC8/GF8 D-E 96/9-98/8 EJ20G PFC 414-F005 H/C 415-X001

IMPREZIA GC8/GF8 F-G 98/9-00/7 EJ20G PFC 414-F003 H/C 415-X001

babs: added, and I will keep in touch via SMS or phone.

As for increasing the size of the group buy, lets just be happy if we get 20 people to pay and worry about extras later :D I will now contact Brent to let him know we have the numbers and get some details as to where we go now

The previous price was around $1050.. with whatever the exchange rate was (its better now).. WITH shipping included AND handcontroller.. That was advertised for nearly 2 months.. .and then about 2 days ago that price was removed :confused:

13_devil: no problems matey. Suspension is much more important.

[[d a n n y]]: Unless its significantly bigger, I doubt it. There is only so much margin that can be taken off these items.

Anyway, I have emailed Brent. I will let everyone know how it goes.

Lucien.

is it too late to get one now????

ummm

just a quick question if anyone can help me with..

what's the deal with having one of these, if my car only has an exhaust, pod..bov?

like basically what imtrying to ask, is there any use of getting one of these if my car is fairly stock?

I was planning to get one of these in the future when i get more mods..but this deal is too tempting to miss....!!sooo thinking about getting one

hey lwells, all the answers that were directed to ferni, does that apply to an R33 Gts-t s2 as they were referring to the GTR?

umm im on stand-by...still weighing up my options and also checking finances, but when you get the exact cut-off date, ill let you know....have to do some further research first

The same basic theory applies. A PowerFC will basically enable you to make the most of any modifications you make to your car and even on fairly stock cars it allows you much finer tuning possibilities such as achieving ~12:1 air/fuel ratios which will likely net you both fuel and power gains. The more your modify, the more useful the PFC gets, so in that sense its 'future-proof'.

I am not trying to convince you or anyone else to purchase: that's entirely up to you. If you do some searching there should be ample threads to help you makeup your mind :P

Lucien.

yup thanks lucien, i posted a thred up on the forced induction section to get some specific and more detailed advantages....hopefully some experts my give me some advice...

but i am leaning towards getting one..so when u no the cut-off date, let us know

thanks

Hi All,

I am currently in the market for a PowerFC and have noticed a couple of other people are, besides which there always seems to be a demand for these units.

With that in mind, who would be interested in a group buy?

I have spoken to Brent @ Nengun -- who a lot of people have bought parts through over the years -- to get an idea of the discount involved.  Here is what he had to say:

Now obviously there are some considerations:

  • We need 20 people.
  • The exchange rate is a determining factor.
  • The offer is only good for one week.

 

The benefits, however, are:

  • The units are $987.75: I have never seen new PFCs w/ hand controllers for <$1000.  That's almost AVC-R money.
  • The price includes individual delivery
  • The items are duty exempt
  • Any PFC except the AP Engineering units (and D-Jetro/Pro too I imagine)

Edit: Re GST Charges, this is what Brent had to say:

So, if you interested and have (or will have) the funds available, please say so and include your preferred model.  I may as well start the list:

Buyers List: -- 23 and counting :(

    • Last year I got a set of MCA street coilovers for my turbo Forester after my son hitting a concrete gutter/wall on a small bridge causing the whole drivers side suspension to get bent because the rain just made the car slide out I love them, I think they were $2400. even had a hiccup of have the wrong hub configuration (my fault) so got onto MCA and they sent the correct shock ends overnight parts from QLD, for free!  I was very impressed with their customer service and quality of the product  
    • They've had some weird failures on their brake actuators. One of them was because they added some kind of lubricant to the factory fill brake fluid that aftermarket brake fluid didn't have so it would affect the seals. Another was just mysterious, probably internal corrosion or something eating away at Prius brake actuators. Parts alone for those are a few thousand USD so not a cheap fix.

    • KYBs are typically twin tube, putting them in the lower tier of desireability. Do you just want to replace worn out ones for the lowest cost? I mean, you wouldn't just replace one end of a car, if the rears are a similar age to the fronts, then they are probably nowhere near what they should be, and likely won't be great against brand new fronts. So, to spend ~$800 on 2nd tier dampers, when you could get a decent set of MCA coilovers for <$4k.....? As to the strut tops. 1st up, the Sparesbox site specifically tells you that they are not correct for an R33. Beyond that, why do you think you need them?
    • That's not very Toyota of the Toyota!
