Last time I looked they did...did a really good job of binding up on the dipper at Bathurst and spearing them off in to the kitty litter

Sports cars are a nice handling over all package.....the viper is a large powerful engine attached to a chassis built manily around 2 bits of railway track

LOL RAILS...

did u see the lotus come over the peak too fast hit the strip and bounced off a wall and into the service road..??? 900kg 1.8L toyota engine ftw...the donut king cup thingo..

was a good race.. EVOS wer crazy.. and did u see the FD3S behind everything..?

FD3S are a sports car.. good overall package.. but they are kinda gutless.. like the RX8 bahaha... waste of engineering.

hi all,

im new to sau ive come over from the exa club as i had an exa now i have a skyline and am in desperate need of your help i have a r33 gtst series II 4 door auto yes i know its a friggin auto it sucks yadda yadda yadda anyways i got a bigger front mount a bigger turbo power fc and viper alarm system also window tint and pearled paint anyways i had a loose wastegate actuator and when i fixed it (as boost was coming on at like 5500rpm) it now gets full boost at 2000rpm the car is pinging like a bitch i cant afford to take it to a decent dyno and im looking for a stock ecu and decent boost controller to swap for it. i managed to get the car pinging not so much by self tuning as best i could but just want the stock computer and boost tap if anyone can help me out send me an email at [email protected] please cos im desperate to get my skyline working good btw i live in beenleigh but work at capalaba at bryan byrt ford >_< lol thanks guys.

The power fc needs to be modified to work on an auto car, you CANT run a power fc out of the box on an auto car. Yes it will work, no it won’t work right.

SydneyKid on these forums made a post in the tech sections explaining what needs to be changed to work, he runs one on his auto Stagea

hmm SK is smart.. hes a good bloke..

makes me wonder what he looks like..?? anyone got a picture of him im keen to see if he looks asian with white gray hair and long kung fu mostach

Power fc's dont run on auto cars...

This is true. I think his biggest problem will be with the Power FC.

My advice consist's of the following, seeing i owned a 4 door r33 auto at one stage.

1) Post in the WTB section of the SAU forums and let people know you need an R33 Series 2, Auto ECU.

2) Disconnect car battery and remove the Power FC ECU and hand controller (if it has one) and replace with your second hand r33 S2 Auto ECU.

3) If you already have a boost controller, i'd piss it off pretty quick and reconnect your boost lines into the stock boost solenoid to ensure either of the two items above arent causing the problem.

4) If the problem is still there and your running a stock ecu and boost solenoid, i would then locate another wastegate actuator and replace your current one. If your actuator is allowing your gate to open quickly, your turbo will spool around 8-12psi in an instant shot and give you a massive amount of boost spike.

However, you mentioned you had issues at 5,500rpm (Wastegate not opening soon enough), and now it spools to early (Power FC problem, Wastegate opening to early...Way to early...)

I'd seriously give the above a fair go.

Good luck. :rofl:

Welcome to the forum.

You said that you had a loose wastegate? how did you fix it? I'd be definitly pulling the power fc out like the others said as they obvously not suited for autos .If you cant pull the fc out for now take a few degrees out of the timing ( get one of your mechanics to do it, thats if you are desperate so it doesnt ping might, make the car not responsive). What fuel have you been putting into it ?Hopefully nothing under bp ultimate.I wouldnt be running any boost controller until your problem is fixed so get that wastgate sorted out or your chances of engine damage will be up there.

Good luck

    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
    • That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together 
    • I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
