Hey all. The zed is in for a complete rewire and new computer atm. The reason being that having had 2 looms spliced, there were dramas with the tune being dropped when the car was switching off. This is not a fault from the computer, but I thought it time to get serious with the wiring and upgrade.

The computer was recently proven to work on a R33 at Trojan Motorsport on a SAU members car.

So:

Apexi Power FC + hand controller to suite RB25DET (R33, though may work on other models).

In good condition, though a few minor blemishes.

$1200 firm with 30 day money back guarentee, with proof from a tuner.

Pics: Its a power FC... But yes I can get some if needed or you can book a time with me to have a look.

PM or 0421780262. I recommend mobile as I work weird hours.

Cheers

Scott

Thanks sfrizza and Matt.

I should add, I will only have this up for a short time in ACT, then will go to the national section, would prefer if you guys bought off me than someone I dont know, but I need the money.

car is at autotech today so going to have a talk to ed when i pick it up about what my options are...car is running rich as but there is black shit all up the back of my car :)

black stuff all up the back of your car is normal if its running rich.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
