aquariuz6, I remaped my ECU when I had the GT25 in my car, but now I replaced it with a bigger turbo and FMIC etc., so all the set up is different again. Therefore, I'm not sure if I can still use the old remaped ECU to run it, that's why I have a few questions want to ask:

Q1.Is the remaped ECU will do the same job as the SAFC?

Q2.The car doesn't give enough fuel to support my new turbo, can the remap fix my fuel mixture problem?

Q3.If the turbo is rate 480hp, does that mean I cannot have my car over that limit?

Q4.Does anyone use their standard injectors with remaped ECU/standard ECU and dyno over 250+kW at the rear wheels?

Q5.How many engine HP do I have when I dyno 215 kW at the rear wheels?

*Please help me as much as you can and I look forward to tune my car again soon. :)

1. Yes but no adjustment with remap

2. yes

3. Sometimes

4. Apparently some do with adjustable fpr but I wouldn't recommend it

5. 215rwkw x 1.34 = 288rwhp add 10% drivetrain loss x 1.1 = 316 horsepower @ the flywheel roughly. Some people say drive train losses are more than 10% - more like 18% - I'm sure someone knows better.

If I were you and had a 480 hp turbo fitted I'd get an apexi pfc. Not really expensive but allows you to do so much more.

Also a lot of remappers don't have real time emulators so can only do changes to your maps with the engine switched off. Unless the tuner's really on the ball the tune most likely won't be as good as one done with aftermarket engine managment.

gtst25, so what about the E-manage blue compare with the remap?

Not sure about emanage. You have to look at the price I spose - if there's only a few hundred between adapting a gtr pfc and emanage I know what I'd go for assuming you're running a rb20.

    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using. 
    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
