what u mean PFC are out of date? lolz..

most versatile and easiest to use also it comes with a standard map so bolt it in and away you go..where as the other one have to pay for installation and all other bs..

Hahaha

Yeah but the Vipec has more features (Launch control, Anti lag, Flat shift) and having it custom tuned is sooooooo much better for your car than running it on a standard map.

my car isnt for straight lines like yours matey :D

plus i dont want those features.. prices for vipec/haltech and everyone else aruond that is looking close to 2k i wuold be assuming.. thats including product, install and basic tune..

PFC including HC is 1300 landed..then its a basic tune from there.

might just throw it out there but :D

f*K you all :) ill decide my self : D

haha thanks !

plus that anti lag.. if its anything like the beer limiter it would be a waste for a SR. with stock internals and head.. and or turbo as well

sorry to seem rude.. but im not really interested in "ADDED Features" that dont really help with my applications im building tihs for.

Hahahah yeah fair enough

The whole hoha thing about Vipec's launch control is kinda stupid if you ask me. The De-Jetro version of PFC does everything the Vipec does at around the same price. The only difference is more people are experienced in tuning the PFCs comparing to vipec. At the end of the day it depends on your tuner. If he's more comfortable with vipec then thats the way you will go. But having said that, you choose your tuner and its the tune that matters... not the ecu.

Let me know how you go cause I'll be looking for 1 seriously in 2months time due to money issue (saving up for it now!). I'm pretty keen in getting Gavin Wood to do mine (heard a lot of good stuff about him) and getting a De-Jetro with the PFC boost controller kit that I've told you before (clean looking "stock" car).

cooo0000oool??? and?

anyways i believe it does not come down to what your tuner says..its bullshit.. dont like what the tuner does? find another one.

its only too common that people believe and listen to what the tuner has to say.. like sheep for instance.

buy the ecu u think is right and or discuss with a tuner that specializes in that ecu otherwise if cant find what your looking for pick another ecu you think will match your rig.. or wash and repeat and find another tuner the specialize in that specific ECU.

even when it comes to boost controllers.. "Oh my tuner doesnt want to work with a (Insert EBC name here), he said its easier to work with a (Insert EBC name here).. so ill go out and bend over at parts shop just to get that ebc"

point of my little rant...research! dont bend over unless you like to push back and or drive a boat, nonhektic flutters 32

*Note - this rant is towards people having knowledge of EBC,ECUs and tuning not other like minded enthusiasts that are new on the subject.

yeh u defs have a point mate :yes:,

just a few things i noticed however

i dont think you understand redsuns,

my tuner told me that a t51r is the best solution for my NA r34 to make some serious power,

he told me not to worry that my block is a rb25de

and he also told me he can do it so it'll be on full boost at 3500rpm

>_<

Er,

i dont know whether to put u in the same class as king springs and chromies or retarded people with special parking spots..

anyways whether u did listen to your tuner or not.. still shift and shit like a granny too

:S

Wooooooo Vipec FTW

Call Mark from Godzilla Motorsport if you got any questions, hes a good dude! Phone : 07 3890 4488

My one and only complaint about him is;

He tunes to conservatively and I witness'd first hand him lying about the ARF’s on a mates car tuned by someone else to try and get the business.

Being conservative is no doubt a good thing, the very last thing you want is a car to go bang on the dyno or some young kid having a cry a week later when he spins a big end, regaurdless when you have signed the disclaimer and have been instructed to get the most out of the car and refuse to, it is a little disappointing.

Other than that very knowledgeable man

tas this one's for you.

make it happen.

oh also, notice the AE86 with the R32 front on the bottom?

oh yeah, that just happened. now that image is stuck in your head.

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
