i am really surprised stel that your car was running leaner rather than richer...  every line i know that just has boltons it richens up like no tomorrow did you have a bigger turbo or something ???

Standard turbo at the moment.

The car may have had some work done to it before i bought it and was brought back to basically standard, when we installed the SAFC the wires were already cut for an SAFC. I know the guy that owned the car before me so i might give him a call and ask him.

I was impressed with the result myself....

welcome to the world of skylines and fuel consumption, I can get 400k's if i realy realy watch my foot, but normaly 300 mark.

LOL. It is still a step up from my old car. 250km to a 65litre tank. And thats if I was trying to drive econimically.

Here's a link to the Blitz R-Fit. I still haven't had any feedback from anyone using it as yet. It looks pretty similar in features to the SAFC. However I do know a guy with a 180 that is about to get his installed and tuned so I'll let you guys know how it goes.

Just bought a second hand SAFC2 yesterday, pending delivery.

Been searching for ages, finally found one for sale before the rest noticed :D They're pretty sort after, everyone wants one but doesnt wanna spend the $400+ for a brand newie.

Sorry to dig up a really old thread but wanted to ask a few questions.

I managed to score myself a black SAFC2 from a guy on another forum, and it almost time to get it tuned somewhere. I am going to install it myself but wondering where fellow skyliners with SAFC's will recommend.

So for those of you who do have an SAFC, who installed it and how much was the install? Did you get dyno runs before and after or just afterwards?

I installed it myself, dead easy really.

Then took it to Ben at intune to get the tune done. He dyno'd it before and after, gained like 10kw accross the rev range and the beast uses much less fuel!

Very good results! Im considering this or saving more money and gettin a PowerFC dunno whether its worth it though

How much was the tuning of it Justin? I rang ESP and Trojan last week and both gave me around the same sort of price for install and tune. I have been recommeneded Autotech but they quoted me an outrageously high price for install tuning of it.

I have since decided to install myself, so I just want a tune done now.

Also does anyone know what dyno Trojan uses?

    • Nice one, I'd argue that the white S1 RS260 is certainly the best looking of the Stageas. And yes, fully agree on the forum situation. It's a bit of a shame, but at least SAU is a good place to be. I found the facebook groups to give me FOMO because people were trying to one-up each other and show off in some way. Feels much more natural here. There are people with seriously nice builds, but I can appreciate it rather than it making me question my life choices. Might be that people are more open with sharing how much work/money/suffering it takes to actually get there. 
    • Evening, wanted to pop in and finally register to say hi to everyone here on SAU!   It's been a while since I've been active on a forum, but back in the day I used to be relatively active on ClubLexus and other hobby-related forums. I'm glad to see SAU is still around, since with the advent of Facebook and Discord it seems forums aren't what they once were. As a recent new owner of an S1 260RS Stagea, I've found so many older guides and helpful tips from SAU that I figured I needed to join and say a grave thank you. My recent acquisition has only become legal in the US for the past year, and knowing that similar car enthusiasts from across the pond have already figured out the kinks and tricks to get these 25+ year old cars running well. I look forward to diving into more of the SAU forums as well as hopefully contribute some info myself for future posterity.   As a pic tax, here is one of the few good photos I have of my Stagea. I hope to get way more in the future!    
    • Is this where I say "Hey man my airbox cost me horsepower in my Naturally Aspirated Engine"? (I know you need them for legality in NSW)
    • 1.5mm alloy folded up, it will need a tweek, as the angled bend only got to around 45° as that was the max that the break press would get with the other bends, and I needed a fair bit more, but and the alloy is easy to bend too my will by hand once I trim the lower section out I'll Dremel out and form the angle and mounting point on the lower section when time permits  As for the lid, I'm looking at going a "cap", instead of a flat lid to hide the fixtures a bit
