Hi as the proud new owner of a series 2 R33 I am seeking to buy (not straight away) a Power FC and FMIC can anyone help me in terms of good places to get these from for a not too steep price and where they know what they are doing. How much am I looking at all up? Cheers!

Hey fella, I get my car tuned at Graham West on Marion Rd, They sell PowerFC and have a sht load of data for them, really down to earth guys, not too sure how much but check them out!!

Darren :uh-huh:

I normally use nengun.com & greenline.jp as a good price reference. Also, check out the 'group buys' section they regularly have cheap FMIC & Power FC's.

Not sure where you live, but some reputable workshops/ mechanics which many on here go to are - Tilbrook, Boost Worx & Morpowa (that's where I take my car).

In terms of mechanical services & dyno tune prices your looking at:

5,000kms service $120-$220

General dyno tune $140-$250

Initial Power FC dyno tune $400-$600

Have fun with the line.

like pkblade stated there are many places where you can get pfc and fmic's from. Its best to look around and find out general prices b/c bargains comes up all the time especially in the for sale section and group buys. btw if you want some maintence done to car at a relatively cheap price refer to this thread here. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=74556

you'll find PowerFCs with hand controller delivered for around $1,000 through traders on nissansilvia.com, and Ebay is your best bet for a Hybrid FMIC if you want a cheaper option cooler (I have one of these and they are great) - I think kits with piping are going for around the $900 mark atm.

Yeah I got my POWER FC and Hand Controller via BUSKY from the nissan silvia forums..

It was delivered in under 2 weeks.. and passed customs no probs.. coz the guy wrote.. USED.. R34 POWER FC..lol.. so didn't pay any import customs tax.. but yeah .. ppl in adelaide were quoting $1600+ and I was fark..no.. for $1650 I got POWER FC and AVCR. So yeah shop around in forums.. as for FMIC.. I got my blitz coming from nengun.com. Apparently the HKS aluminium was on sale a few weeks ago.. only $1500 or so.. compared to $2000+ others ask for locally.. correct me if I'm wrong on some of these prices but.. yeah.. I reckon they are pretty accurate.

But for instant cheap power do a search on the forums..concerning changing the solenoid in the R33 to make it 10psi.

If only I could do it on the R34... :whatsthat

Have fun boosting mate..

Iceduck out

    • This sounds like a perfect excuse to install a Haltech R3.
    • I do believe from context he is talking about a S0/S1 R33 RB25 with associated ECU and Wiring for that, and a manual gearbox into a R34 N/A Auto. I don't have the knowledge of all the pinouts and such but my gut feeling from doing my own conversion is to use as much of the R33 stuff that you can. The "car" wiring is quite seperate from the "Engine" wiring when all things are considered. The only things to truly consider 99% of the time is the cluster, reverse lights and potentially disabling the 'not in P/N' immobilizer circuit.
    • A realistic expectattion of how long it has to last also comes down to.... when do you think you will be banned from registering and driving old petrol powered shitters? It's 27 years since that thing was built. It probably rusted out 15 years ago. It was probably repaired and looked OK for another 10. If you do a similarish bodge job now, or perhaps slightly better with some actual rust conversion and glassing, then.... get another 10-15 years out of it, after which you'll only be permitted by the CCP to drive electric cars manufactured in their Shenzen zone anyway. 
    • Let me assume that the concern over a manual ECU is that the NeoDET that you have was an auto and has an auto ECU. That ECU will not be a problem, but you WILL have to Nistune it. And you would have to Nistune it even if you had a manual ECU, because the turbo ECUs will shit the bed if they do not have all the things that they were told they have to have, to be happy. The big one being the TCS CU, which you won't have in your car. Anyway, with an auto ECU (which I have running my originally auto NeoDET in an R32) Nistune allows you to put in a Stagea image which doesn't panic about the absent TCS, and allows you to override a whle bunch of other annoyances that would otherwise see the check engine light on 100% of the time. Also, you can't wind up the power very far on the stock NeoDET ECUs without Nistune, because the boost sensor gets in the way. Nistune allows you to push that problem much further up the dial. Do you even have the boost sensor with the engine? Without it, you are SOL and will need an aftermarket ECU (or to find a sensor somewhere, god knows where). I can't tell you what the wiring loom differences are in a 34. But what Duncan said above needs to be considered. When you say "loom", does that include the transmission loom? Because you will need to swap out the auto tranny loom for the equivalent manual loom, and get rid of the neutral/park start interlock (basically hot wire it).
    • I have had the r3c in for years now, maybe close to 7 years and it has never missed a beat, anyone can drive it. Super easy to drive around town, the hotter it gets does get a little hard but it holds the power easy as
