Hi all, Still sorta new posting to this forum, but best info site i've seen for skylines i've gota say.

Could some of you who have either one of these boost controllers maby recommend which is the best to buy?, im looking to get either one very soon and seems like both have good reviews on each.

APEXi AVCR BOOST CONTROL or Greddy Profec B Spec II

also looking to get a new ECU in a couple of days, both of these have good reviews also,

Microtech Ecu or Apexi Power FC

which would you guy recommend from use? thanx

R33 Skyline Series 2

Edited by seriesII
PowerFC ECU + PowerFC boost controller addon

Done & done.

hey, thanx for the reply, i was just checking up the add on kit, looks to be more expensive then what i was going to buy the APEXi AVCR BOOST CONTROLLER for, would there be much of a difference getting the addon kit over the AVCR?, or is it normanly just a saving of money?

The addon will allow you to control the boost and everything regarding it like A/F ratios etc all from the one thing. Instead of specifying the boost per RPM on the AVC-R then matching it on the PowerFC...

I would probably run it that way to keep shit easier... but essentially, they are both doing the same thing, just using 2 different systems to do it.

There may be other things the PFC can do with regards to boost control that the AVC-R cant...

The boost add on for the Power FC gives you a few more features than the AVC-R, like 4 boost pre-settings instead of just 2. I'm sure there's something else also, can't remember it.

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
