Have a Look at the new S-AFC II from Apexi. It's quite an improvement on the old unit.

This thing is rather expensive. I think the PowerFC is better investment...

Rev210,

It does look like an improvement on the older model, I think that there is alot more competition around these days, so they have to keep improving. It will be quite expensive, almost up there with some of the plug'n'play computers, but it does look cool.

It works out to about $550AUS on current exchange rates, thats about what people pay for the old one over here. Freight is about $20 and with Taka's you don't pay import tax (they write down a 5,000 yen invoice attracting no duty -- ala my Ogura flywheel)

[GTS-t VSPEC]

That's not too bad on the old wallet, but it does say that they are a limited production, why is that?

See'ya:burnout:

[rev210]

That limited edition is the 'GT300 champion edition' the only difference is the 'white' display as opposed to blue. This particular varient is 1000 units only, the normal one is not limited.

They are the same price.

"GT300 champion edition", this is a must have, imagine the sticker you could put on the car!!

the SAFC II is just more a cosmetic then anything else, price wise its still good, especially people are still expecting them $500+ second hand.

Regarding performance wise, from lookin at the pictures, the only extra function it has are memory function holding more then 1 settings.

It has 12 Vs 8 points of AF setting and can be done in increments of 200rpm vs 500rpm. Making the unit a more accurate than the old S-afc. It has a knock sensor plug in as well.

[Joe]

yeah your right i forgot about those features.

hehe havent taken a look at the pic for a while now.

It all depends on how far you wanna go with your car.

180-190rwkw then stick with the safc

That sounds right for an aussi retailer.

Taka's is the way to go, takes less than a week to get the stuff.

Killer-T: Bastard!

OK for those of us who already have SAFC is it worth upgrading to SAFC II? I think the knock warning is a good idea, however when they say settings in 200rpm increments, does that mean that the unit fills the inbetween settings like the current SAFC?

Bravo. :lol:

They just need to make a ricey blue "Hand Controller Type-R Mk2" so it matches my AVC-R...

hmmm... speaking of new models - will they ever do an updated PowerFC for R33 or R32 ? Or is that a silly question as most of it is programmable anything?

To me the new features of S-AFCII look minor (at least minor enough not to bother with over a standard S-AFC unless you're paying similar price).

[T0nyGTSt]

There is a 'new' Power FC 'Pro' out. It adds a bunch of features that are really not much use for road use but may be useful for the track.

Eventually all roads lead to the PowerFC so I really think that in many cases the investment is worth it esp. if your OEM 'puter is giving up the ghost.

I mean $800 for the S-AFC II - gimme a break.

[inark]

this is good!! this means the price will drop on the SAFC then i might bother getting one!

altho if i get my ecu remapped when i change/add mods i spose its not really necessary
