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,

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 :)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
