I try and warn people the PFC is a 20 year old piece of dinosaur tech, and it's worth $20 in the scheme of things. There have been better options for many years but everyone still gags over them.

The beauty of the PFC is experience with so many tuners and the ease of replacement if you get EPA'd

I've had det on E85, when I had an intake leak and it was running too RICH...

That aint det Simon, it's spark breaking down.

I had det on e85, but i was running 22:1 on cruise while fiddling.

Any plug in ecu would have the same benefits, Haltech do a plug in too.

What sort of power/torque increases have the 86 people seen from it?

Not sure, the guy was SAU so it wouldn't be hard to ask... There were two running at PI, and I know at least one was on e85, the one in my group.

I wouldn't buy one these days with adaptronic and haltech available, but I've had mine for 5 years and rather than getting another 98 tune done on another twice as expensive ECU and then getting the E tune on top of it, a simple retune for E was the viable option for me.

It's still popular because every tuner can do them, they are plug and play and cheap and do the job just fine for all but serious racers. People love the hand controllers too lol

hey guys booked it in with freddy at nisma in thomo for that 700rwkw methanol tune with 9s and gt42 with 2 speed powerglide hollinger.

wot could go wrong?

Don't forget you will need twin SUS power filterz mate for that power.

Not sure if mocking perfectly sensible concept

I just don't see why some douche who did a medical degree for 6 years or put in the hard yards / cut back on spending habits when he was younger should own his own house when I'm stuck renting in Richmond and can barely afford music festivals let alone the repayments on my 3 series

saw some article posted on fb about this 24 year old havng like 4 houses worth 2.3mil, from a 'rich family' but no handouts were given, yet shes earing 55k a year.

Yeah right LOL.

She was going on about how anyone can do it etc.

I get 10L per hundred from e85 in the Evo, on the open road. Pretty good, but I doubt you will get that with the V8.

Yeah on 98 I'll get about 8-9l per hundred cruising at 110km/h just purrs

Actual city / daily driving it sits at about 15l/100 on average, about what's expected I guess.

heard ric once paid a bitch 2.25mil to suck his dick...

Birds, get Nistune and flex.

Done.

Last time I spoke to Trent he said 86's make something like 110 kw stock, and 145ish on E85 with nothing else done.

He also said they were pretty terrible car, widly not worth the money.

1:51 at PI doe...

Sorry Birds, he was in the 86/brz club. Craig Furniss with the BRZ, managed a 1:54 I think.

I'm surprised more of these guys aren't doing the supercharger or turbo conversions; that chassis has so much potential as a track car

Must be too new for people to want to risk their engines lol

Each to their own but there's nothing else for the same money that comes close in looks, handling and rwd...there's a reason they're farkin everywhere these days...Toyota found a niche and filled it. They will be the next big P plater and tuner car once turbo/blower conversions become more widespread and the second hand market value comes down a lot.

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
