huge thread, looks good.. anyone know rough pricing for the ecu itself? (since it just plugs into the factory loom, no install costs required yeh?)

for a 34GTT install is required. the map sensor lines have to be run into the engine bay and the intake temp sensor installed.

they were $1650 inc GST when i bought one for our circuit GTR. That was a while ago but price should be around that mark.

yeah $1650 inc IAT and MAP sensor etc.. still that price we sold a few lately.

Ive found them a good thing but the Best? No way, top 4 yes.

best no, quick and easy YES, results also easy.

The new Haltech Platinum rates a mention and is one of the best new computers around now especially as the new software is 10000000000000000000000000 times better than their old system. (the old software was clunky)

hmmm well there was a gold box under the dash from what i saw and if the vipec was as good as it's ment to be i cant see why it hasnt been changed, if you read all the crap that some people have been carrying on it should have been changed if vipec is said to be so much better ? but i think it's just the marketing ploy, thats worked well too this point maybe some truth should be told "sometimes" when it suits

ok, wouldn't suprise me if the motec's still in there as I know how little time Mark has to work on his own car and the motec does an excellent job. I'm sure there will be a vipec in it's place when he gets time in the future though, I'll ask him next week when I place my next order.

Now you do.

The logging software on the Vipec (it has been updated since I had used it the first time) was not that special. Anyway, the Motec SDL which is just a display is not compatible with the Vipec (I think).

I allready did.

sdl can be unlocked for logging too

no conspiracy theory...Mark was simply busy helping out everyone else get their cars ready over the last month. He has generously put others first before even considering his own car.

Nice time today!

It was shame about the dial-out.

We almost got Theo up and going for the Qualify too but ran out of time so he didn't get to run again which is a shame.

What did Mark run again? 7.8 or something, that's pretty decent. When's he swapping out for a slider clutch to knock another second off?

Theo had a run in the grudge races later in the arvo, had what sounded like missing issues and clicked it off before half track.

Even though i wasnt out there perosnally racing, there was a bit of me in both pauls and theo's cars :)

    • Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.    
    • In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
    • planning a r34 rb25 de+t with some other work, rather just have it done in a shop due to space limitations any recommendations? I have most the parts already I seen online Moore Performance and DR Drift any advice appreciated thanks 
    • I’ve read the previous posts so just looking for latest information on how people have dealt with front facing plenum is it a defect etc or didn’t pass roadworthy or was it not noticed? Have a r34 and deciding if I should make a hole on the driver side or not.  I know some people have said blitz return flow but I might get rid of the stock intake down the line for a plenum so I rather set up for that now plus I already have a standard Intercooler. Car is mainly stock  Thanks. 
    • Actually, if having and keeping the stock ECU is the plan, the correct answer is to put Nistune into the ECU and improve the situation, not just look at it.
