Hi there. As the title says i had the SITC tuned on my R33 GTST along with the retune of the SAFC.

Personally i was hoping for a bit more but Nigel said the car with it's current mods is about spot on.

He also made a good point in saying he could always have acheived a higher result, but do you want

a good safe tuneor an unsafe tune. Mods are Walbro 255lt pump, full exhaust, FMIC, SAFC-SITC combo

and standard turbo running 12 psi using the turbotech controler. Cheers :Ppost-10771-1146917525.jpg

Mate thats a nice result... anywhere near 190rwkw with that combo / turbo I would consider to be good.

If my car was rwd thats the sort of figure Id expect.

Query - your car manual or auto?? Auto I presume...............

My Rb25det auto 4wd Stagea has 160awkw @ 12psi, similar mods. Im hoping for 210-ishawkw with a highflow at 1bar

Hey Tangles. No the car is manual. I only got the SITC because i already had the SAFC.

mick what was the afr ??? also do you have a before the SITC and after ???

I foudn this when looking up info on the SITC might help someone if they don't have the manual

Cheers Leigh

Hi Leech. Not sure on the AFR's as i assumed this would have been on the print out.

It only seems to show the boost levels (not bad turbotech controler). Before and after

as in power output only minimal as it was more for the sorting out timing issues. But

as previously said the power is much more smooth and nicer to drive. Also the drive

home didnt have any pinging issues which is always good. I am interested to see whether

or not pinging is present during the warmer days? :P

mickr33 have you ran your car down the 1/4 at all? i have a r33 aswell with just cat back system, pod, turbotech controller @ 10psi, and safc (but not tuned at all) and i ran a 13.9 with a stuffed clutch, i need some money so i can go run again with the new clutch.

but i am yet to get on a dyno

how much are these SITC? i have been looking at the SAFC2 for awhile now doing some reading on them but not as yet looked at the SITC?

Only because i already had the SAFC i purchased the SITC due to tight arse issues.

The best advise i can give to you as many would i think agree is that:

If i didnt have neither the SAFC or ITC i would have saved up for a power fc. Trust me

this is the way to go. Do not bother with an SAFC ITC. :(

Hi there. No i havent as yet been down the quarter. You should get

some good gains once the SAFC is tuned. But you will still have the

issues of timing. I was getting an awfull holding back feeling from

10psi before the SAFC (like someone has applied the handbrake slightly),

which is the rich and retard thingy i believe. SAFC fixed it nicely with a 25kw

gain as well. :(

mick, you should think about selling the safc and itc and get a pfc later down the track.

Then you have a lot more tuneing options if you decide to say open the engine or slap a bigger turbo on. :laugh:

just a thought, simon

      He obviously had his reason for flipping you off. I wonder what it was...

      I have to agree like, yesterday, I was driving down the warringah freeway towards the bridge when this jackass driving a beaten up Honda civic cut me off so suddenly it made me almost yank the wheel to avoid him hitting my car. Honestly and he had the NERVE to flip me off (or some other gesture Idk). Im a calm guy, but really some people just dont deserve to have a license, let alone be allowed to drive on densely populated roads/highways. If youre gonna cut through lanes at least use the damn turn signal

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      HPA do an interesting video on tuning, and Adrian shows on the dyno, moving from 10:1 to 12:1 (And I think even 13:1) and the power moves SFA. However, a couple of degrees of timing has a HUGE impact. Exhaust side of things will more be the length of the exhaust and how many bends and turns you have. The straighter you can keep it, the better. By a lot. Oh, and getting the diameter right. Bigger isn't always better. Going to big can actually lose you power.

      I have to say, most people I see on the road fit the bill of atrocious drivers. Whether they be cowboys in their dual cabs, bogans in the Commodores, or the soccer mums. Pretty much most people on the road put zero freaking thought into driving. Barely look further up the road then the end of their bonnet, and have never even thought about how catastrophically wrong shit can go, by doing what they all deem as normal driving. Especially their late braking, racing to stopped lights, and sitting half a foot off the bumper of the car in front at 110km/h. Wanna know what's even better? By the time their kids get to be old enough to learn to drive, they've already got in the back of their brain what is normal driving, how annoyed you're allowed to get at people etc, and then their parents who actually have zero freaking skill at driving (Even though they constantly say "I've been driving for 20 years and never had an accident!") teach the little twerps how to drive, or should I say, how to make a car move. Literally watched a parent teach their L Plater, on a 4 lane freeway, that you just slam the brakes on, and push your way over, even with a B Double bearing down on you, and that's how you should drive, rather then, just keep going to the next exit. Same shit happens all the time for side streets etc, watching numpties pull dumb shit turns pushing across 3 lanes of traffic, rather than just go up the road another 30 seconds, and take the next turn that'll get you to the same location... Oh, and the damn right lane bandits. Or the retards driving along with their headphones in, and can't hear the ambulance or fire truck right up their ass about to run them over...   Pretty much, people drive on the road, like ego centric f**ks, and don't actually think how dumb shit their driving is, how it could easily kill them or someone else in a split second, or at the very least, how they're driving is contributing to all the shit they're bitching about on the road, like shitty congestion!
