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,

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

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
