Hang on

...you mean to tell me i didnt have to order my PowerFC from Japan and wait aaages for it? :)

No you can order it from an Australian distributor however it will be slightly more expensive (around $1350) but it will come with a A'PEXi Australia warranty. If you buy one from overseas then you are not covered under the warranty as each unit can be tracked to the country is was intended to be sold in, thus buying one direct from Japan is not covered in Australia. Not to mention the legalities of "C Tick" certified products.

We tried to convince people a while ago why buying from the Australian distributor was better, however people weren't willing to fork out the extra cash.

Yer i see your point...

I think i payed approx $860 ($980 delivered) from Nengun with the hand controller so i guess i did make a considerable saving. Although, like you said, if something goes wrong i could be in trouble.

Whats this "C Tick" you speak of? :)

This is a C-tick:

It's a compliancing approval for almost all electronic goods. You should see it on everything in your house from your toaster to your TV. More info here: http://www.acma.gov.au/WEB/STANDARD//pc=PC_2796

As far as HyperTech goes, it's a subsidiary company of Access Auto in which they were manufacturing their own products. It wasn't a name change. They are also located in Vermont to be exact. For those of you who remember Access a while back had a garage open to the public however it closed to the public to allow them to spend more time doing R&D for the HyperTech line, which sells things like Titanium Tip mufflers. (see our website www.psiparts.com.au for more of the HyperTech range)

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
