come accross this adjustable chip on ebay (D-Boos)t designed to increase power by 25HP. iv been told alot of chips designed to increase power etc. are just rubbish...

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/25HP-D-BOOST-PERFOR...1QQcmdZViewItem

has anyone had any experience with having these fitted to a vehicle?

do the dyno tests show an increase of power?

what brands are proven to be the real deal, and what have been proven to be a real rip off!

any info will be great.

cheers 4drftn

The link doesn't work, but I think I know what you're talking about. All I can say is that it's a full of shit. I haven't tried it myself, but just don't believe you can get that much power from a little cheap device.

Mate if its the chip im thinking of its not a chip but a resistor. You can get them from Dick Smith for 20c. Then you fit it to the connection of your airbox and reset ur ECU. Appartentley it adjust ur airflow and fuel ratio and ur ECU advances ur timing. Giving you the extra power. I have heard they work but i dont know about 25hp gains.

All it does is change the voltage going to the ecu from your air temperature sensor, making it think that it's a lower temperature and advance the timing as such. Very dangerous!

couldnt have been summed up better!

No. if u could "tune" ur ecu, then y would u bother fking around with those shitty resistors?

U want proper results, either remapped ur own ecu or get something like a PFC

      Here's the link: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6642/misc/G49?frame_no=WGNC34-137122 What you think about it? The same product i found on nengun: https://www.nengun.com/oem/parts/40567/MiPwn5qAMfCfmpxHNDnwn5q9MDAx8J-QiW9sZC1qcC0xMTAtRzQ5LS0wMDE/Floor+Carpet+%2F+Mat+2/0688339eba149c19 Bot i have spoken to 😅 ensured me, that mats are 100% original, oem product. I have my doubts. I also heard what you mentioned, that nengun often offers items that are actual not available... On the other hand mats i found on japanese yahoo or ebay are in poor condition and still quite expensive so i'd rather wait for some better offers. My location - Poland. We literaly don't have ANY market for used Stagea parts so need to search outside Europe.

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not

      I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By Marek · Posted

      Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
