Hi i recently bought a r33 s2. i owned a BT1 Vl Turbo before that, tough car though.

any way

it came with a HKS F-Con V piggie back computer,

Hi flow turbo,

3" turbo back system

afc an old on single setting +-10,

front mount and that's all i know.

i had a look round the fuel lines and fuel rail but cant see anything interesting. don't know if fuel pump/s are done.

previous owner said it used to run 16 psi

I'm still getting my head around skylines, i have a lot to learn.

i have been browsing the forums but i cant find anywhere that tunes HKS in oz.

what kind of performance am i looking at getting. the car goes good on 7 psi but

i don't wont to boost it till i get it tuned and also i have to give the car some general maintenance Filters/oil

i also recently bought a GReddy Profec B boost controller. not in car yet.

Should i buy a APEXI S-AFC SUPER AIR FUEL CURVE CONTROLLER

what other cheap mods could i do to achieve reasonable power. 200rwkw would be nice

Any help appreciated. Thanks..

BD4s is the only official HKS Power Writer on the East Coast of Australia; XSpeed is the official HKS Power Writer on the West Coast. Anyone else claiming to be able to tune these units is most likely 1) borrowing the tuner / software from the two mentioned places or 2) using illegitimate hardware / software.

To actually become a tuner for HKS is a very involved process; it's one of the many reasons why the whole HKS Pro line of products is hardly mentioned anywhere.

On that note; if anyone has an ENGLISH copy of the manual for the V Pro; PM me :/

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
