ok, well bombtrack and i are building a ke70 with an SR20det for a drift pig.

money is not huge on this build and we're aiming for around 200rwkw @ 950kgs stripped

planning on using an stock r34 turbo we have lying around and running e85

now a pfc is obviously the best cheapish option

BUT

could we get away with just a SAFC2 & an SITC?

e85 uses around 30% more fuel and is useless with out timing adjustment so an sitc would be needed, but will the safc be able to bend the signal far enough for the fuel? i dont have any real experience with safc's

i figure both could be had for around $500 second hand so its gonna be half the price of a pfc

$420 will get you a nistune chip + Tuner license ($220 for chip alone if some one else is going to tune it). $120 for a consult cable(Not needed if your not the tuner)

This will allow you to remap the stock ECU realtime. This will be just as good as a power FC and alot better than any piggy back system.

R34 turbo on SR20 ...

Aren't the flanges different???

You could make 200rwkw on E85 EASILY on a stock SR20 toooobo

Ben - dont get Trent into trouble and make him advertise, just send him a PM.

Although you know what Hamish - SR20 ECU's run pig rich, so running E85 on a stock ECU might lean it up nicely - sure it might ping a bit, but it would be free :P

you can pick up a PFC without hand controller for under $700 if u shop around, and it has a better resale value than any of the other options when ur finished with it.

lol... d00d that is even too ghetto for teh pig...

yeah, was thinking of using an adaptor plate for the 34turbo, as we have one lying around (and a 33 one) but after speaking to trent i'm just gonna get a 2nd hand s15 turbo

true dat, but trent has hooked me up with a nistune board in ecu an case, so i'm stoked! deal DONE :)

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
