Had my PowerFC stolen recently. 95% I know who did it, I'm just wondering if there'll be a serial number on my box that I can match to that on the unit itself, and where I'll find that number if it exists? Apologies if this is the wrong section of the forum, it would increase my forced induction performance if I can retrieve it though? :D

Yes, I'm talking about the original cardboard box, unluckily it's at my parent's place in Albany, but there is a 7 character number above the barcode (similar to 414-N011). Not sure if there's a warranty card, it was imported through Greenline... There's also a FCC3 XXX-XXXXX number. Unfortunately my poor mother is a little confused by all the Japanese on the things I left inside the box [probably including the warranty card, got a photo of yours with the important stuff blanked out of course?], might need to drive down to Albany :|

If it helps, it is for a R33 GTR.

how does someone steal a power fc, im presuming it wasnt installed in yoru car

It was :/. They broke in and removed it! Wouldn't be surprised if it was another Skyline driver, how else would they know it was actually worth money... Luckily I had a spare ECU sitting around or I wouldn't even be able to start my own car.

On the plus side, I have a lead on the theif, just not sure how to get it back off them.

just go and take it?

Only got their mobile number though. Have an idea about where they live too, but not well enough to break into a house and rumage around for my stuff...

But back to my original question, is the only place I'll find my serial number on the warranty card?

I thnk there is a serial number on the yellow card? Not on the actual box tho

Ok that's good, my mother assured me that there was a yellow card inside the box. Getting it sent up on Monday and I'll see what the police (or my fists? :whistling:) can do.

The 7 character number (414-N011) will be the Hand Controller Model No

Normally there will be a spare silver sticker in the box when you buy it with the Power FC Serial, which from memory will be along the lines of:

PFC RB26 XXX-XXX (Older Power FC's)

PFC GTR33 XXX-XXXX (Standard Type - Less Recent)

PFC GTR33L XXX-XXXX (For L-Jetro normal version Power FC)

PFC GTR33D XXX-XXXX (For D-Jetro Type)

Hope this helps, good luck

      The alloy coolant reservoir has a sight glass, so as long as I can see coolant in the sight glass it's GTG, as for PS, it isn't anything catastrophic if it gets low, and as it hasn't lost a drop since I have owned the car I cannot see it being an issue, even after putting the "big block" 2.5 in....LOL The only time it gets slightly messy is at oil changes, as the oil filter sits above the frame, and I need to use a plastic bottle with its bottom cut off to catch the flow when loosening the filter

      Single Turbo Conversion On R32 GTR.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Good on you for taking on the job, but it is a big one. Even if you have bolt on manifold and turbo, you will need: Post throttle pressure source to boost controller to wastegate (and FPR, and ECU/MAP sensor) Pre throttle pressure source to top of BOV(s) Oil feed - you can take that from the standard port in the middle of the block Oil return to block under the turbo - this is much trickier than it seems to route a decent/wide pipe past the manifold. You really can't use rubber hose because it is way too hot there, and also the oil out of the turbo core is a bit frothy so it needs to have a decent diameter Water feed - you can take that from the standard port in the rear of the block. Water return - mine runs to a T into the heater box return, just make sure you don't create a high point making bleeding hard. All of those lines should use 200 series style teflon braided hose with heat shielding because everything needs to be routed past the manifold. Also a turbo beanie is a really good idea to minimise the chance of the car catching fire (under bonnet lining in particular) You also need to decide a cam cover breathing solution as well, will you vent externally via a catch can (probably illegal) or return to the intake (plumbing required and can oil up everything over time) Keep in mind the intake and exhaust piping in the engine bay will be custom so you either need to be able to fab ally and steel or have someone you can get a car that isn't running to. Get the wideband fitting welded into the dump pipe at the same time. Also, just my opinion, a screamer pipe attracts attention and doesn't add power, I'd plumb it back if you want to be allowed to keep the car on the road. BTW do you know anything about how healthy the motor is, and what power you are targeting? Doubling or tripling the factory power on an unknown motor is a little risky. Also fuel system will need some attention (pumps, high current hanger, direct power and earth feed, injectors etc)
