I've had e boost, never again, HKS EVC

You generally get what you pay for

Not always true, I had a HKS EVC and it was the most unreliable POS on the planet, it was replaced by the Greddy and the car now has a better boost curve...

That's right thats why I said generally, I have two EVCs now ( 4 & 5 ) and never had an issue, but both came up at good prices when I needed something, so either I've had a good run or your one had an issue, who knows but I know I'd wouldn't ever go the e boost, I spent hours setting up and CRD tried and no matter what we did it wouldn't catch how quick the 32 came on boost, fitted the EVC and with no setting it up had no more problems, been in car for 8-9 years so far

eBoost = great, but overpriced considering it's is just using a MAC valve

Profec = great, decent is price, uses the same MAC valve as most controllers

EVC = awesome, stepper motor holds boost well

Blitz Dual Spec-R = awesome, dual solenoid holds boost so flat you could put a ruler on it

Turbosmart Dual stage = junk, awesome spike

Turbosmart Single stage = junk, awesome spike

A mate had plenty of issues with the original series, in saying that i believe the retard tuner was partially to blame!

Yep i know a few that swear by them hence my purchase, as usual i am just unlucky lol

ive noticed alot of people running greddy profec ebc's are they way to go, hold boost like they should?

Yep, do the job fine! Work well on my car!

^ true story, my 180 came with one, first mod was to remove it and sell it. Then my current shitbox came with one, removed it the first day I got the car, and sold it on eBay.

Biggest croc of shit on the planet, essentially it's just a pos bleed valve with a solenoid to enable the bleed or not.. total shit, however their external gates are good. They should stop making boost controllers LOL

A gate technically controls boost, so therefore would be a boost controller? :blink::laugh:

thanks for your advise guys appreciate it. I'm thinking i might go with the Greddy ebc that option seems good value for cost.

I have researched before but it is easier to ask the question and get direct answers instead of sifting through junk on the net.

thanks for the help matt.

You should be right with the Greddy...

      Anyone running the VQ37VHR with forced induction?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.

      Starter motor replacment teeth count.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Absolutely matters because, while a temperature change will eventually reach a sensor at the end of a static line, the response time is far far far too slow to be useful. Might as well not have a temp gauge at all.

      Anyone running the VQ37VHR with forced induction?

      When I was eyeing off the 370GT (after deciding I didn't want to spend 30-40k+ to relive my early 20s in an R33) I thought it'd be a good project to add a turbo to it. Now that I have a 370GT, and I've had a couple of chances to open it up, I'm pretty stunned by how much power it makes 🫠 Honestly, the way the VVEL opens it up, it almost feels like there's a little turbo tucked away in there somewhere. It's like Nissan looked at VTEC and said "hold my beer" 😁 Has anyone thrown a turbo into their 370Z or 370GT? Is there a conservative boost level you can run without having to upgrade the fuel system, or are bigger injectors and a bigger pump a given?
