Yes. :P

The VCT.. I've had a look BUT I haven't purchased or put together anything yet.

There's a couple of different options; I remember looking at a VCT controller on nengun or there's the cheaper jaycar route.

Good work! Jaycar sounds good. Cheap yet good. :)

got mine coming :(

According to Nengun website, APexi may be closing down completely, so when they say they have discontinued certain models, i think thats what it means...

So...Cubes, hows the VCT issue coming.

Nengun's news has been there like that for months. Apexera isnt going bankrupt anymore I dont think, most of the money is going to be put into Apexi USA so hopefully they can pick up the pieces.

It would be good if they do pick up the pieces BUT they may just not bother investing the $$ in to it as the cars are old getting written off etc etc.

Hey mate,

Do you have a 32 and R33? Are you needing a VCT controller too?

Which is why I said wait until the VCT controller has been sorted before buying one for your R33. :action-smiley-069:

Its something I am doing in my spare time so when its finished its finished. :D

Well you ensured that it would be sorted, it wasn't going to be an issue, so i bought one before they get discontinued too. I mean why wait until the VCT was sorted? WHat other option was there to buy? So i have it now, and getting installed Monday. Just wondering if there are other people who need this sorted too. Has anyone gone this route or is it just me who is waiting?

I'll take you back to

Sorry for hassling ya Cubes, but am i safe to purchase a RB26 PFC from Nengun or should i wait until you know whats going on?

and my reply of..

No problem. :P

Do consider that a VCT controller still has to be sorted out. This is a little project in my spare time so it won't be completed over night.

The Rb26PFC without VCT works perfectly fine in the R33; its only the VCT controller that has to be sorted. :(

So... Its up to you if you can hang off for a little until the VCT controller gets sorted.

With VCT off the RB25's mid range is a little lack luster.

:) It will be sorted.. Just in my spare time.

If you get edgy why not research and start fiddling also.

I believe only 1 other is that I know of. But in saying that I really don't know; ordering from nengun takes a good 2-3months so time will tell.

Its fairly simple. You just need a circuit that at a preset rpm triggers a relay then at a second rpm it disables the relay.

Mallory do a window rpm trigger switch that is suitable. Tracking down how much I can get them for.

ok I've narrowed down 2 rpm switches.

There's no point building one myself from scratch as I don't have the time to build kits.

I've came across a MSD Window switch that is suitable and ~$100 USD + delivery. ~$140ish delivered

Another is not as fancy but considerably cheaper at $39-$49 USD + delivery.

I'll update once once I hear back from the second option.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      On 12th June, the mechanic could not figure out what the issue was, but the car seems to be flooding with fuel. He was suspecting the tune, thus referred me to a tuner. Although the tuner is not familiar with Nistune, last Monday (30th June), he came over to try and re-map it. Despite the tuner trying to completely stop fuel, it kept sounding like it was pushing fuel. Tuner ended up suspecting either the ECU or Injectors. I do not believe the ECU or Nistune is the issue, as the Nistune software reads and communicates properly. Today, I removed the (new) injectors to see if they are clogged or leaking. Surprisingly enough, after those 3 days of driving, injectors 2 and 3 look very blocked. You can see the difference in the picture. I blew a bit on 3, that is why it doesn't look as clogged as 2. I am still unsure if this is what is causing the no start issue, but I am now feeling that I may have bought the injectors and Nistune without the need to do so, as the problem seems to be coming from somewhere else.

      R34 GTR Front Diffuser/Guard Liner questions.

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Hello everyone. I've recently started the research into R34 GTR front bits and running into eye watering prices. On the plus site it looks like some places make 'replacement' fender liners for these cars. At eye-watering-but-less than stock prices. I also noticed there's plenty of diffuser options available too. What I would like to know is if my following assumptions are correct. 1) The OEM guard liners are actually only 'half' the liner. They go together with the OEM brake vents which are a separate item which looks to be quite a large 'panel' that is part of the liner. The GTR bumper has bolt holes along the front. I assume the ones in the vent correspond to the ones the OEM liner does not have (circled?)   2) The V-Spec front diffuser supplants the brake ducts in the above item. I am assuming these still work with the guard liners as there's no alternate part that I'm aware of. I don't see how they go together, so I'm making the assumption that they have to, somehow. I know the center splash guard is different on the V-Spec (and is the price of the damn diffuser alone). How does the liner interact with this? 3) There's alternate front diffusers that do away with it all. Annoyingly, a lot of the clones and CF different ones... have no brake ducts on them. I like the idea of them though. My brakes get hot on the track. These alternate diffusers are a lot cheaper than plastic splash guards. I'm assuming you don't have to/aren't supposed to remove guard liners to run a diffuser. I suspect that quite a few people actually do not run the guard liner because with a front undertray you're getting a lot of 'splash' guarding anyway, and most people remove liners given they're probably running a pretty aggressive setup with a diffuser at the front. It would also be nice to know if anyone has ever run the 'reproduction' guard liners and know whether the fitment is OEM quality or "OEM Quality". Example: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/356254671561 https://carbonetics.net/products/nissan-skyline-r34-gtr-plastic-front-wheel-arch-set Is this knowledge still around?
