Questions....

1...will it rely work?

2...has anyone got this on there car?

3...should i buy it and try it?

4...will it stuff up anything?? eg engine,air intake etc

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/15BHP-Power-Mod-Chi...1QQcmdZViewItem

try this copy and paste it if top link not working or type this in ebay search "+15BHP Power Mod"

thanks guys

the link didnt work for me, but i bet i know what it is..

1. no it probably wont work

2. i hope people wouldnt have it on there skyline

3. IMO.. i would not buy it

4. probably will throw something out of wack. computer maybe..

reality is... if these crapchips really really worked and were that great! they would be on everyones "first thing to do to my car list"

up to you.. buy it try it and tell us that it will probably do more harm than good. thats my bet anyway..

i even got one for free i wouldnt try it.

Lol yeah I know these things! It's just a resistor that gets put across your AFM output, lowering the signal. Basically it just runs the engine slightly richer.

so it will work??and be good for the engine?

yeah true wont get it but its cheap and looks efective but cant take the chance

before you do ANY kind of modding:

Read through the forum on all the related topics for 3 months, then you'd get a good idea of how things usually work, what parts needs changing when you change one thing or two things etc.

Don't selectively read things that you think are important e.g. how to make flutter noise or how to make my exhaust sound like a jet plane. Read each related topics thoroughly and then you'll know exactly what you need to mod for what you want the car to do.

We've all made the same mistakes before, especially when we are new to the scene.

Leaner. Richer make less power on a car that has a stock ECU.

It might work. It might not be bad for the engine.

However, its some generic off-the-shelf resistor that affects your AFM signal to the ECU and has probably never been tested on a car similar to yours, let alone the same. If it was tuned perfectly for your car then it'd be as good as an A'PEXi SAFC.

If it works badly it does nothing at all, or kills power while increasing fuel consumption. If it works really badly it leans out your mixture to a point where it starts to detonate and you break something.

you get what you pay for. do you honestly think a $20 chip has any testing or proven benefits associated with it?

if you don't have the money to modify the car properly from the start than don't bother doing it all as it just leads to more problems down the track.

It will modify any standard ECU by telling the ECU that the incoming air in the intake system is cold and so advances the ignition by up to 2 degrees with more fuelling to compensate, therefore producing more power with more torque at lower revs. In many cases fuel economy is increased too.

so... u put more fuel in and then fuel economy is increased... :P

ive missed something... lol

go to servo

buy chips

put in glovebox

drive car home

notice there is no difference when chips installed in car

park in driveway

eat chips

thank yourself that you didnt spend money to get piece of shit china crap off ebay

    • Ok i will get those 310mm. I found one but on a different site. This is the description on those...is it ok? Technical parameters: - Axle: front. - Disc type: ventilated. - Number of holes: 5. - Disc diameter: 310mm. - Total height with center: 54mm. - Thickness (new/min.): 30/28mm. - Designed for brake calipers manufacturer: Sumitomo.
    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
