Apexi FC Tuned For $2200?


Recommended Posts

Guest INASNT

u can get new pfc and hc from greenline for around$1450 now!

Where do u think all the aus shops get there stuff from?? they just add their 30% profit margin to the stuff and sell it here!

I am getting all my stuff from japan, u save big bucks.

and nengun is the 1 i got my pfc from 2

Hey just thought I'd add a bit to this post I ordered my PowerFC, Hand controller and Boost controller (also bought exhaust cam gear) from nengun got it bout a week ago. Got all the above for 155000 yen which worked out to be roughly 2114.69 Tried greenline aswel but Nengun were cheaper in the end and they have better insurance for the postage. Gonna go see my mechanic today to sort out installation and tuning prices.

Good luck with yours

Sim,

did you check out the place?

I am just going to put in the new PFC for a while and run base map. In July, have to go up to Gladstone for Uni placement - there a guy up there who's s'pose to have set up heaps of PFC's (and loves them). Apparently, he does it for $280 on dyno and all so that means a total $1665...pretty happy with that.

do not run with the pfc base maps, they r tuned for 103 octane fuel and your car will ping and the check engine light will keep flashing

Really?

I had only thought of running the base maps (as seen in HPI 21 P.29) because I thought it erred on the safe (rich) side. I don't think I'd run base maps if they will stuff my car up - should I retard a little at first or wait for full tune or are is the map 'OK' to run?

i just pulled my safc out and am running the stock comp while my pfc sits in my room. I was told that even the base pfc maps since they r for 103 octane fuel are no good even with 98 octane fuel since the maps r so aggresive. U could always change the maps to make em less agressive but i wouldnt take the chance.

Hey inasnt...since your's is 2nd hand from nengum (japan) wouldn't that mean that the map already on it was tuned to suit some modded skyline in japan? Or was it base map just like what comes on new PFC?

Steve

dont know, but its quite simple to put it back to factory once installed! u got a h/c also dont u?

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
