I would like to ad the reasons I went the microtech. which is the real question here.

First of all it is Australian made.

Backup support with their own forum http://www.microtechefi.com/

When I bought it, the pwfc was plentiful and highly recomended but I just didnt like the idea of buying something with no local backup

had a microtech on my s1 33 gtst actually was the first in adelaide to have their 'plug n play' setup. in short it was very poor as a daily driver, mostly cause it did not have enough adjustment for cold start idle up etc. but as alredy stated, fine for a race/weekend only car. oh yeah and definately agree that your tuner is EVERYTHING when dealing in aftermarket ecu. my choice PFC :laugh:

First in Adelaide, very interesting. What date did get the Microtech installed? As I know another person with the 'first' S1 GTS25t LT12 install in Adelaide.

What about the ltx12 microtech inbuilt boost controller, who has used this? It would be better than using a bleed valve right?

I guess the ultimate would be a set wastegate spring, but how do you set up a switch to select high/low boost when using say 16psi wastegate spring, I guess the switch would turn on an electronic boost controller? Or could you set two different springs to switch mechanically on the wastegate?

    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
    • Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
    • okay, so I figured this out, removed needles and reinstalled after swapping the gauge face on my triple gauge for my ER34, all work and look good. I tried to do the same for the main cluster, but the main cluster gauge faces are dished, the replacement gauge face are flat, so due to the dish in the org face ,mounting backing plate (clear) and depth of the needle, the flat gauge face will not work. I notice that R34 gtr gauges are flat, appears to be different clear backing plate that aren't dished. are these available, or what have others done to install flat gauge faces?
    • Cheers mate. Seems some people get lucky others don't. It looks like the motor was detonating (to be expected if it was overboosting I suppose) as the pistons had a lot of detonation damage, and the bearings were stuffed. The bores were very scoured too, not sure if that's from the pistons or bits of ceramic turbo. By the by now. Have been trying to avoid the rabbit hole too much on the rebuild, and there's been a few hurdles along the way, but with any luck I'll have the car back soon™. Might even pop up a thread then.  
    • Thanks, these seem to lay it out a bit differently. I will get back to you guys after i do some tests and more digging.
