hey ppls.

I've been toying with the idea of fitting a Gizzmo shift light and integrating a Gizzmo Launch Controlling into it also.

I like the idea of being able to set an exact rev limit for launch and maybe even being able to flat change if I feel the need.

It works with sequencial ignition cut, which will mean awesome crackle popping and quite possibly flamage.

Here's the link.

anywhoo, apart from the super coolness of launch control, is anybody actaully using the Gizzmo, and was it worth the buy?

Cheers

I've been thinking of getting one for quite some time now, but never knew the prices.

Not sure how great it would be for RWD, but I know a lot of people in NZ have been using this and getting great results with AWD.

I thought you could do that with the PFC though?

shan knows some bee*R product to acheieve the same goal for a 1/10th of the price from the yahoo autions. have a chat to him about it.

the powerfc pro has 0km launch and ign cut at redline instead of fuel cut

the powerfc djetro has map sensor instead of airflow meter

sadly you can't get both in the one product, but i know of one jap supplier who claims to have a r33 gtst djetro so who knows. but you could also use an rb26 djetro pfc and make it work on the rb25 without vvt if you really wanted that. anwayy offtopic

speak to shan

BeeR item, has problems running with a PFC something to do with grounding issues but i think they may have fix this problem.

can be had for under $400

      They care about emissions, and cost the most. Save weight where possible, and make manufacturing easier. Less material also let's the engine transfer heat to water quicker, and bring the engine up to temp quicker, better for emissions and getting them past their warranty period.

      I was under the impression the reason why OEMs are going with solutions like relatively thin "right-sized" cylinder walls with technologies like PTWA and open deck is because they care a lot about whatever marginal knock margin benefits they get from that vs the structural rigidity benefits of a closed deck block and thicker cylinder walls. I also see some weird stuff like plastic inserts in the water jacket around the cylinders to try and equalize cylinder wall temperatures. re: the PRP blocks and heads at the end of the day it's hard to know what is and isn't going to work there, just have to see what the initial buyers say about it.

      Which is why I didn't mention that hardness testing, and specifically mentioned the bore and deck thickness testing. Yeah, not really. The bore temperature will be a lot more even around the top half inch or so, where the material distribution is dominated by the deck, and which is the only place where the bore surface temperature heating any gas in the cylinder is likely to have any effect on detonation. Think about it. Another inch or so down the bore, you might have a hotter spot. The gas there might get a bit hotter, then the piston rises squeezes that gas away from there at high speed and mixes it with other gas from nearby. Instant dilution of the problem. I'd be surprised if it was an issue at any time other than in racing engines or OEM dev engines being run at the ragged edge of tuning. Say what now?

      https://dsportmag.com/the-tech/education/engine-tech-material-hardness-testing/ The PRP testing on block hardness I'm not sure how much it actually can be trusted. The thinner cylinder walls on RBs is a bit of a problem vs 2JZ but it really depends on the design goal. Siamesed cylinder bores like a 2JZ cause uneven cylinder wall temps too, which means a bit of distortion induced by that + the hotspot can affect knock margin. Something that actually gives me a bit of pause with the PRP block, whether super thick cylinder walls are going to keep it from being drop-in compatible on an otherwise OEM rebuild.

      Yeah very valid point. I am waiting for one of the other tuners to come back from vacation so he can help me a bit when the cat is installed again. In the meantime I am going to finish up my polishing and ceramic coating that I have started myself.    N45 Dr Beasley product is highly recommended for a paint primer / polisher. Using this EXO Gtechniq also for the ceramic but next time might use the light serum before hand also. Looks great.
