hi jag,

try this thread http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=37720

I remember him having a few.... EVC 3 & 4. If it's for the GTR either a 3 or 4 will do. They both use the same stepper motor, and I'm sure have the same functions. I think he was selling these for $250 for the EVC3, and $250 for the EVC4... WOW they were cheap.

Good Luck

Thanks Simon, already got in contact with this guy and he said that he was going to find out whether he had any evc4's left, still awaiting for his reply....

Your car is coming up very well down at Ice, mine is the silver one beside yours getting virtually the same upgrades..... The cars look virtually similar with the xenons, no. plates, mods....

I've got an EVC 4 going in mine as you've probably already seen. On the advice of Ben & ICE, it seems alot of people are going the HKS way now. Hopefully my car should be ready today... it's been there since MAS :cheers: Either way, I have faith in the boys there, so far they have been very striaght, upfront & genuinely honest about my concerns.

PS: Hope you haven't pinched my no plates... I'll probably head down there tonight, as i'm starting to have withdrawal symptoms.

Well Ive been talking to the same blokes as you have and they swear by the evc4...

Yeah they better hurry up and finish yours so they can finish mine, apparently yours is priority at the moment.....

Will have to go for a cruise one day and compare both setups.....

JAG: A comparison would be good.

DAVE: I learnt the hard way, that the HKS Model description is a little confusing. So here goes...

What I got is known as the HKS EVC 4 in the US, however in japan it's know as a HKS EVC 3. What's known in the US as a EVC 3 is known as a EVC 2 in Japan ... get the drift. The model your referring to for around $900 is known in Japan as a EVC 4 with the the seperat display unit similar to the blitz model. In the US it is known as a EVC 5... Other words US seem to add a 1 infront, the same way they do with their "vehicle model years" eg: WRX 04 as we know it, is to them know as a an WRX 05. Typical yanks!

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      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
