they should have provided that in the pack...min came with a thick lot of photocopies...the DFA construction info was buried in there in the middle I think

When I was in the states the petrol is at best 91 octane is this the same octane measurement as ours. Their lowest grade was 87!

No - R33 steel compressor wheel (or Al) not sure R33 ceramic turbine wheel R34 nylon compressor R34 ceramic turine wheel The turbine wheel is the problem so the turbos are about equivalent...

More importantly - do you have to solder the LCD screen/board to the 14pin header?? I see it is copper lined on the holes in the LCD board so not sure if it needs to be soldered. Doesn't say in the instructions to solder and there isn't rally much of an area to solder to.

ceramic turbine wheel. Been known to let go at 12psi I read in a magazine.

I'll buy the book but they do give you the photociopies with the units.

I want to make sure the DFA works before getting the car on the dyno. COuld I use a pair or 3 AA batteries to replicate the 0-5v signal??

Are they the threaded spacers (they look too fat I think)? The other ones are just like washers (not fat enough)... I'll finish it off tonight - but did your screen sit completely flat or tilited slightly? thanks guys

Dont buy all the stuff from nissan. Nissan patrol clutch fits the RB25det...has a good feel (slightly heavier than standard..not much) and is about $200 for the kit... daikin clutches

Did yours come with it? I guess I'll just find some somewhere... Thanks PS How about the LCD screen...did you put spacers or anything under it?

Just building the hand controller at the moment. There are 3 links (one under the D25 socket. They were not provided in the pack. Are they meant to be just bits of wire? Also are you meant to fit something uder the other side of the LCD connector (washers or anything) - it angles down a bit

its either ECU going into rich and retard due to the extra boost or cracks in your coil packs.

Apparently with a FMIC and stock ECU you can use quite a bit more fuel as the stock ECU doesnt know what to do with the extra airflow so it throws more fuel into the mix. Either get a SAFC or similar or PowerFC

Is the cable really only about 100 - thats ok...not 300 though!!

Dont pay much more than 20k. Most series 1s are going for about 14-15k. series 2 has the airbag which is good but thats about the only extra. ABS is good, no sunroof - no more than 20 max! 96 is in fact almost 10 years old.

Don't believe it matters...someone else can verify this?

I have a r33 RB25det - driving not too hard get about 400-450km to 50-53L. Usually works out about 11-12L /100km Not really great but I am going to install a jaycar fuel adjust to lean it out slightly because I know the AFRs are too low when on boost. Also will check the 02 sensor is working preoperly as these can make a huge difference to fuel economy. Hopefully get about a 10% improvement. I drive in kind of freeish flowing traffic but give it a little bit every now and then. WIth the fuel prices the way they are echos are looking better. Rememember 98 octane is another 10c more pre litre aswell Good cars though

Yeah - there is a lot of stories.. Think I'll steer clear. Sort of wanted to see what he can do with tuning the stock comp but maybe leave it...

Yeah I'm undecided now - maybe mark is ok...Maybe go there andmake sure he does the tuning..have to see... Thanks

Cool. I have been warned against hills though...>>>??? What happens if you change turbos then are you up for anouther $600?? I guess I'll go and ask him.

Its hard to know – it’s a shame for mark if he is pretty good and has been wrongly put down. I am pretty sceptical now though – there are more than a couple of bad raps…

Looks like Ive opened a can of worms... thanks guys.

Gee. Thanks for that..

No - when I spoke to Mark at Hills motorsport I definately said R33 quite a few times and he seemed convinced he has chipped quite a few.. Maybe they have found a way to chip it.. I guess its only a matter of time before everyone else finds out...
