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

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
