Small batches are still being made of the Power FC's with the next one being finished on the 25th but production has definately slowed and is messing with business for some reason :P

And with that price will surely raise quite a bit won't it?

Bought one from JPS Trading on eBay just a few minutes ago, $754 US shipped to Sweden.

Only four RB25DET R33 PFC:s left on eBay, better hurry :verymad:

lol, looks like when i decide to ditch my pfc (whenever that time comes) i'll be able to pull some coin for it.

kinda sucks tho as the pfc is possibly the best drop in replacement for our motors, aem is fickle and works half the time and the others are just horribly expensive or dont support maf.

My supplier still has a bundle... maybe apexi' is just messing with us to make a quick buck?

But i did hear a while ago that it was becoming hard to make a buck in the performance parts game over in japan - i find that a bit hard to believe but i'm not an apexi executive and i dont know what the overheads and supplier costs are.

this sounds about right. its one of the main reason apexi pull out of the d1 in japan and move over to the drift series in the US. they said there wasnt a big enough market for there products or something!

also my supplier still got many of them too :)

Straight from the horse mouth so to speak.

Hey Chris,

And i quote

As for the Power FC’s well the rumors are kind of a bit true but not completely, we can still get hold of most of them except for the R33 GTST, R34 GTT which are discontinued and there is no stock of. The S14 Series 1, S14 Series 1 D-Jetro, MR2 SW20 and the GC8/GF8 (A~C) are also discontinued but there is still a limited amount of stock available of these units. Everything else is fine, maybe not in stock but still under production. There will be stock of everything except the discontinued models listed above by the end of December for some and by the end of January for others.

What I have said in that they are discontinued isn’t to say that they will never be coming back into production but as they can not say when they plan to be they have classed all of them as discontinued.

Well hopes this helps a little.

why doesnt everyone just wait and see what apexi brings out next

im sure there will be a replacment for the pfc and im sure it will be better

They probably will...but no doubt it'll be more expensive and have a host of features that I do not want or need :)

      Forced Performance Hta Turbos

      By Lithium · Posted

      I'd say closer to OG GTX3582R, just smaller trim - so 59mm inducer/82mm exducer as opposed to 62/82 for the first gen GTX3582R. Yeah EFRs were boss, the EFR8474 is still an absolute beast and it perplexes me that people still go to things like Turbosmart/Garrett etc when the results people are getting with those are pretty unremarkable compared to what you could get with a turbo available well before those options came out.  DriftSquid (I think) "upgraded" from an EFR9174 to a Turbosmart turbo and promised a comparison video - and kinda shuffled awkwardly and did a bit of diversion from the fact that they didn't get any improvement going to the currently massively hyped brand of turbo from a turbo that was a bit of a frankenstein that had been well superceded in it's own range before the Turbosmart unit he put on there even came out. I suspect the EFR would outperform most Xonas for what a lot of less-insane RB owners would go for, in the 400-600kw range but the Xonas are looking hard to beat up to maybe in the mid 700kw range at this stage- basically where EFRs don't really reach, and before the Precision turbos take over.  What the Xonas do well in the "EFR range" is be easier to package etc, and work very well if a divided housing doesn't suit your application.

      Tomei gasket

      By WMDC35 · Posted

      Are you sure the gasket is blown? What are the issues? Thermocure is the only flush I've seen do anything with rust, very impressed with that, Prestone, rust will be by the pool having a cigarette.

      And since the flush you have a blown head gasket? Have you lifted the head off yet?

      Hr34 fuel pump not turning on

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The answer is to get a hold of the wiring diagram, work out what voltage is supposed to be where, when, and then work out why it is not there, then. I can't speak to the HR34 stuff, because I have never paid any attention to the NAs. There is a possibility that the turbo diagram will help, but it could also be different - depending on whether there is an FPCM on the NAs.
