I have R33 safc 1 blue screen, fmic 3 inch exhaust 12.5 psi on std turbo. I have removed 1% fuel in high throtle map (50% thottle or more) from 3000rpm to redline with no adverse effects. Obviously will get a tune done one day but i am pretty comfortable that all is ok atm.

Can anyone else with a tuned safc confrim that no richening of ur a/f's was needed on boost from 3000rpm to redline..

This has helped me with rich and retard issues too as before i did this i could only run like 10 psi before r&r became an issue.

Deffinately no audible ping, car feels like it pulls fine to redline in all gears.

I dare say install it your self or if you dont know what a soldering iron is ask a mate who does. Then get it tuned, it doesn't take long at all and I have seen good results.

My mate paid $100 for his R34 GTT to be tuned with SAFC and thats in Tasmania FFS where everthing is 100x more expensive when it comes to tuning.

He had stock every thing exept full 3" exhaust and dump.

He went from 158RWKW to 171RWKW!

Well worth the $100.

Also the guy who said 1% less on all rev range.. thats not gonna make any difference really. you would be going from say 12.8:1 to 12.7:1 Air fuel mixture.

When I get off my arse and wire my SAFC2 in I will be making up a basic tune before I get to dyno because I have a lot of experience with SAFCs and I know my car is getting too rich in top end from 6000-7000rpm so I will lean it a tad there and lean it a little before boost to help spool. But this will only be temp for about a week till I get into dyno.

Its pretty easy to install. The instructions tells you exactly what to do. The only bad thing is the position you have to do it in. Just put a couple of towels on the grond so your knees dont get sore..lol

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

      What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
