Well Riceboy, when I bought the car the boost connections had been plugged up (disconnected) . She was running on 5bars... now its alot more :(

They reconnected the boost, tuned it, and minor service minus an oil change.. (did it not long ago) and gave it a once over to see if anything needs attention...Have I missed anything out?

ETA: I don't think I've missed anything out, the list is in the car and its too cold to go and get it :sick:

Price is irrelevant. What matters is a job well done and a happy customer! :P

I have to agree that paying a little more to get fantastic service is priceless. Why pay less for a dodgy job and get urself all fussed up about it? For me, if i can't afford it, don't buy it/do it/own it.

Anyway, 5psi u mean. 5bar boost = .... bye bye engine? =)

aren't Hyperdrive one of SAUWA sponsors? What sort of discounts do they give? I was looking at their FC D Jetro pack installed and tunned for the GTR...mmm... I know you can't put a price on experience and a good job, but when you can buy a D Jetro on eBay for $1000 and then plug in the module yourself = $1200 just to tune...mmm... still pricey. Maybe the member discount would make it hurt the hip ocket less? Anyone know?

If you can get a DJetro off Ebay , brand new , with the harness pack and MAP sensors then I will have 4 of them please.

You are looking at a std Power FC or maybe the DJetro minus the essential MAP kit.

For STD power FC's we charge $1700 supplied , fitted and tuned with an Australian warranty or $450 to fit and tune if you supply the power FC ( but not the DJetro).

Please get your facts right .

Cheers

Ken

GODTHRILA, on nengun, to get the Power FC DJetro delivered with neccessary nipples MAP sensors etc will cost you around $1400 delivered so for Hyperdrive to supply, fit, tune and provide knowledge and advice for just over $2K is a good deal i reckon.....

Ken,

hows my head taste!?! next time you try to bite it off I suggest you chew first!!!

sorry mate didn't mean to offend or say your prices were too high, ive always believed in payin for experience and a good job... for the record everyone, I thought it was a D Jetro, but it was a std FC...my mistake... all hail Ken :O

I think a thread on pwr FC would be a great idea... such a cool peice of gear maybe Ken can arrange a group buy with a group discount on install and tune as well???

haha... bites my head off and then gets a free plug for his troubles

There is a huge thread on SAU somewhere about Power FC.

I didn't think I bit your head off but see it from our point of view. The internet is a powerful tool and your post , without checking the true facts , puts us in a bad light by suggesting that we are very expensive when in fact when it comes to power FC tuning in Perth , we are actually the cheapest of the known shops.

There are group buys on Power FC's ( also on here ) for $950 from Japan direct which is a killer deal and we are happy to fit and tune them for you at $450.

Apology accepted :(:) :)

hehehe

Cheers

Ken

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
