hey guys, ive recently been in an accident and i smashed the boost pressure sensor on the AVCR so now that doesnt work anymore. i was wondering where i can get a replacement for it? i dont know if there is many apexi dealers in victoria so i thought i would ask and maybe someone might have a spare one or a sponsor might be able to find me one. help would be great as the car is nearly back on the road.

cheers

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? :)

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

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)

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
