G'Day guys,

I was reading on here awhile ago about the best EBC controller to get, but can't find the post now! :laugh:

It was saying something about getting a dual solenoid EBC and that the AVCR is not the greatest choice. What do you guys recommend as a good EBC? Models etc.

Currently I have the following:

3 inch turbo-back exhaust

Pod filters (going back to airbox very soon)

Planned shortly:

2860R's (Garrett)

PFC

Injectors (prolly 555cc)

Fuel pump upgrade

So basically whats a good EBC to get at the moment that will work with the planned upgrades? I have done a search, but was wading thru shit completely unrelated and couldn't fine what I was looking for. Want one thats reliable and safe (no boost spikes etc)

If you know a good thread, post the link!

Cheers,

Dan :)

Anything from the major jap companys will do what your asking for. It really comes down to will you use the extra features and how much do you want to spend.

Im using an ID3 from blitz. Its okay but I could really get away with a profec b or similar as I dont use anything extra that the ID3 provides.

In my oppinion the AVCR is just full or features no one would really ever use.

Guys, for what I want (described in first post) would a GREDDY PROFEC B-SPEC II ELECTRONIC BOOST CONTROLLER be the way to go?

Cheers!

Dan :(

I have that specific EBC and it seems to work well

if I have a mate drive I hit the 'low boost' button :ninja:

[edit]

I have noticed I get a boost spike on the high setting at very high rpm just on gear change but I have a feeling its my tune (big fuel dump at 7k rpm)

Betz, when you say you get a boost spike, how much is it? Any danger? Im after getting one, but just want some people who have used it to let me know how it is.

Cheers!

it seems to do a pretty good job Jonesy, my stock turbos are dialed in at .9bar and it only spikes to around 1.2bar if the oil is hot and the air outside is cool.

if it does spike it rights itself very quickly and if I'm holding high rpm it drops back to .9-1bar, I look at it as a bit of an extra ride at 6k rpm +

mind you my car made its maximum power figure at a low 6000 rpm so it stands to reason on the gas up to 7.2-7.5k rpms I'm going to get a little more boost in there.

I spoke to Lee at MPC after I got my car back and he said its fine aslong as its not doing it all the time or it stays above 1.2 with it floored on the freeway or the like.

Blitz Spec R EBC For the Win mate. They are basic to use have 4 settings and are very effective. Your mods you wanna do are basicly exactly what i have in my 32 GTR and will hold boost perfectly at 1.3 bar no matter what the weather conditions. I have had the Avcr in my old Evo and was nice to look at but a tad confusing at times and swaped to the blitz. I haven't used the Greddy myself but have had mixed reports from others.

But definatly Blitz Spec R FTW. :rofl:

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
