:flamed:  

I am damn sick of people and their opinions on the AVCR, have you people that think its just a fancy screen even used one before?  

Go have a look at most of the top times for japanese cars and look what boost controllers they are using, APEXi is not a small nor un-advanced company

They produde amazing electronics, and this one happens to have a 'blow away the compition' screen that comes with it, the screen is amazingly functionable and helps with alot of the controll  

the SAFC has the exact same screen.. i dont hear people paying it out for its 'rice' screen.  

it is a great EBC, ive helped a few friends use it, and ill be getting one in a few weeks

Relax dude, i didn't say it's not a good boost controller, i said it's fancier and more expensive than a profec B. Also no one said Apexi is a small company however i don't think they are as big as Trust or HKS.

Oh and it's about time you bought yourself new glasses! Look at all the hardco jap cars in JAPAN and you'll see they all use profec B, just for the very reason that it is simple and does a great job. (check out cars done by JUN, Top Secret, C-West etc.) I am yet to see an Apexi avcr on a harco japanese car. However i saw it on cars of yanks just because they love hairstyles as much as you do ;)

I wasnt directing it towards you, it was a general statement so i dont appriciate the things directed towards me in the above.

Have u ever used an AVCR?

Have u ever used a Profec B?

Ive seen 100s of cars in japan in person when i went there last year that swear by the AVCR .. hmm wait thats cos they all use the Power FC and still put an AVCR ontop of it ;)

Yanks? My hairstyle?

I bet u didnt know that ALOT of HKS, Apexi and other japanese brand equipment will soon if not already be produced in 'yank' land, as its their second biggest market.

Sit back in your seat and dwell my friend, think before action, i was simply stating my opinion no need to retaliate

Peace and good day to you :D

got my avcr installed and it's a great boost controller :( very happy... the only ebc's i looked at when i was shopping around were from apexi, hks, trust and blitz... i'm sure there are other good ones out there but a lot of tuners know how to install and tune the more well known ebc's...

Hey Evil,

What are some of your settings only need, bst/dty,scramble,ne point, f/b speed, start duty, learn gear ? if its possible :)

(for R33 Gtst 95')

Cheers,

don't know all the settings... i'll have to check it when i get the chance... i know its set to 9psi (which is enough, my car makes 178rwkw)

Firstly theres no need to be offended by my reply. Secondly you don't quote someones exact words and say you weren't directing them to the owner, especially in a discussion forum. Thirdly few of my friends use apexi avcr but i haven't used it however i use my profec B all the time. Fourthly i believe what i see and all the cars you see "in person in japan" mustn't be making it to magazines, vidoes or the internet as i'm yet to see one with avcr (except apexi factory cars).

And finally your comments about US being a big market are totally irrelevant.

Good day! :)

How long have u been on SAU? not that its relevant but telling me what to do on a discussion forum is a nono, im a moderator and possible administrator (soon) of 2 seperate forums. Just because a car doesnt make it to "videos and magazines" doesnt mean its not making a ridiculous RWKW figure and 1/4 and track times.

I think you get your mind set on things to easily and are too stubborn to realise the error of the mind set when it happens. My US market sentence is irrelevant as you talking about haircut styles and yanks.

No harm done,

Back to the thread :)

Ordering my AVCR next week, already got the SAFC2SE (yes with white screen, so ill have one white and one blue, easy to differenciate) :headspin:

I love the 'techness' of the duty cycle settings and the sheer amount of user changeable settings, it gives you total control of starter, midrange and peak boost, not to mention allows you to finely tune it for stable boost controll.

Yeah I do!

The GFB Atomic... Works well enough for the price. Spikes a little, like when you floor it at high RPM, but otherwise the boost is quite stable. I wouldnt mind an EBC, but that'll come later as i'd rather do something else with $600-800 frankly...

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
