Hey ppl, Im in the proccess of deciding wat comp i should upgrade to.

My car is this.

'95 GTS-t

Apexi POD

Hybrid copy FMIC

Standard solenoid grounding boost mod (always high boost mode)

3.5inch titanium Catback

Excedy H/D clutch

About to install a stainless steel Batmobile dump/front pipe.

I want to upgrade the comp for a couple of reasons.

1) Improve smoothness/driveability

2) Iron out any flat spots (dont have any as of yet)

3) Improve economy

4) Improve performance (power)

Obviousy it would need to be dynoed after the computer is installed.

Just wondering, should i be getting the apexi SAFC or the VAFC, and does ne1 know the diff. Also, is the apexi SAFC a generic item that will fit all cars or do u have to buy 1 specific to a r33? Any other comments are also welcome

Thanx for the advice guys

there is an SAFC, super air flow convertor

and SAFC II the new version, with more features, more load points.

SAFC NEO, has the SAFC II features along with Vtec controll ect.

You need a SAFC II or SAFC. I don't think the extra features in SAFC NEO are worth the extra money, i have an SAFC II, i git a brand new one from ebay for $350, made a big differance.

SAFC neo is just a VAFC and SAFC put together. VAFC are for Vtec motors.

It depends what your power goal is if your planning on sticking with the stock turbo and are happy with around 200rwkw then go a SAFC. If down the track you want a bigger turbo and are chasing more power id go the Power fc. But with prices of the Power fc these days you would be silly not to consider it.

And no they are all generic you dont need a specific one for an R33

Cheers

Chris

      Unpeeling the Orange

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
