UPDATE!!

I went to the Jaycar website to buy one of the DFA kits (Digital Fuel Adjuster, Jaycar catalog# KC5385) And cant find them anywhere; I have a feeling they have been discontinued..

However after a little more searching I found a similar kit

http://www.jaycar.co.nz/productView.asp?ID=KC5490&form=CAT2&SUBCATID=965#11

Which im pretty sure is the kit which supersedes the classic DFA kit which we all know and love...

It says in the blurb that it can adjust air/fuel ratios by adjusting the voltage so yeah.. pretty sure it will do the exact same job..

Peace

I've been using these for a while now & they do a great job. The downside with the voltage adjuster over the DFA is there are more load points to set & so it will take a bit longer to configure. The upside is with more load points you can do finer adjustments.

Looks like they have put the price up on the kits tho.

Edit: there are some ambiguous instructions when it comes to the calibration. It is possible to set these so that each unit (added or subtracted on the hand controller) will equal whatever you want, ie a coarse or fine adjustment. If you follow the instructions to a "T", you could find that the adjustment is so fine so as to make no difference at all. Mine is set for 2 hundredths of a volt (0.02V) per increment, which gives me great control.

If anyone builds one & has trouble working out the calibration, just ask.

Cheers, Leon.

I actually bought a prebuilt kit from eBay (after my initial kit I built didn't work a few years ago :P ) - have a look here. I *think* all the kits are the same but just check with them first - it works with my R33 GTS-T. It is definitely a Jaycar DFA - I have opened it and checked it out :)

Unfortunately, you have to buy it with the hand controller, but after contacting the seller they were willing to drop the price a bit for me. They also responded quickly to my questions so overall pretty happy.

As you will see, the hand controller is a different shape to the Jaycar one but I can confirm that it does work with both the DFA and IEBC.

Anyone here in Canberra could install the DFA and IBC and do a basic setting of the load points?    I bought both pre-built kits from this forum 10 years ago, and its been sitting in my cupboard ever since!   Happy to reward accordingly...

They are relatively easy to install and tune - so long as you have the hand controller to go with them but if you have a S2 with the Neo engine I would really recommend getting a Nistune chip.

Many of the C34 owners from 10 years ago have left the forum but hopefully someone will still have the instructions!

Actually I still have a few files on my computer so I will attach them...

    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise    
    • My Fuga Hybrid is JDM, 2014 model but very similar to the V37 from the looks of things..same platform just physically larger and very comfortab;e
    • Was that Australia Delivered Duncan? Does it have siren etc?   I used to have remote start on an old 32 two decades ago, it was a cool feature. I used to wake up early in winter for work. Start it and by the time i was out the door a few minutes later the engine was warmed up and the heaters had the car toasty. It was great.    I don’t mine the ambience lighting.  I drive a western star and it has footwell lights and ambient lighting and it’s great! From the pics of seen of them installed in a skyline I think it’s a nice touch
