hi all,

I would like to know what EBC I can use that will allow me to run 0-20psi boost on a R33GTR?

My wife is not used to manuals and I do not want her to get into any trouble, so I want to set the boost at say 1psi for her, but I want 20psi for track days. I do not need any bling bling just full control of the boost.

Thanks

Get an adjustable actuator to set it less than the normal "factory' setting. Depending on the actuator used you could effectively get rid of all boost.

This will need to be adjusted manually between driver swapping though, could turn out to be a big pain in the arse real quick :mad:

You could also just disconnect the actuator, a much quicker job. I don't know how healthy this will be for your wastegate/turbo though, because it'll probably be flapping around a hell of a lot.

Thanks for the replies people,

I was wanting something that would drop the boost down below factory specs, but I am guessing I would need something with an electronic wastegate/actuator and that would equal big $$$.

Tha AVCR looks to be the go, do I need a specific model to use on the RB26DETT ? They seem to be costing around the $750AU for a new one, but I did not want one that was for a different model motor and want to make sure.

Are they also user install or do i need it pro installed and then dynoed ?

Thanks all

best to get it installed/setup by a pro. Here in adelaide i was quoted ~$250 (for install/tuning). It suits many types of cars, not brand specific. I've got the "vehicle specific wiring diagrams" book sitting in front of me (come with the AVCr when u buy it) and the Rb267dett is listed. :mad:

Depends on how competent you are with the iron. I installed my S-AFC myself and I've removed/replaced the turbo myself, I don't imagine a boost controller would be much harder than combining the 2.

There are no tuning costs if you don't have a reprogrammable ECU or piggyback device (S-AFC etc), but don't expect it to run very well until you get one and tune it :mad:

there very easy to put in it took me 1 1/2 hours to put in from opening the car door to taking the first run down the street just take it to some one who has one to show u haw to us it the boost setings r very low so u cant realy do much damage if u dont play to much with the set up but just dont give it to it to much till u have been shown haw to us it

yes but with the avc-r you can set boost for each gear and rpm range..and ye u cant set boost lower than lowest on wastegate.

install you can do urself with a bit of skill and tuning you can go dyno or with a mate and long stretch of road :D

if u only want hi / low setting then profec b spec2 is good buy..

its still a single solenoid unit, it displays injector cycle etc but if u got a pfc with h/c u can see that anyway.

So so many people have stated u can set boost in every gear but has any1 actually done it??? coz how does the avc-r know what gear u r in?? it doesent get a signal from the gearbox.

Right ppl. I have in front of me the AVCr instruction manual. I haven't had it installed yet (due to engine dying week after I bought it - different story). The Avcr has a number of different learn modes. Its pretty complicated, but there is a wire for the revs and a wire for the speed signal. It uses some sort of calculation from these two values to know what gear its in

Yes it would work - cos its in the Manual. Just need someone in the know to set it up fo u.

:O

    • 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.
    • 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 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
