I'm looking for a powerfc. Pref with a hand controller. Have been offered $1240 new. can anyone beat this? I don't mind if it's second hand as long as it works well.

Also, as I'm in tas I am limited to what workshops i can go to and I believe that practically none have a good knowledge in tuning them.

Therefore I think it would be wise to come over to melb and get it tuned.

Where/who is a kick ass workshop that really know how to tune the powerfc well in Melbourne?

Oh can anyone approximate tune costs? The car is running pretty shit so it would need a fair amount of tuning i reckon. Mods include turbosmart boost controller (7psi and 10psi but can change obviously), front mount 600x300x76, 3 inch cat back (i havn't checked to see if its turbo back but i doubt it)and turbosmart bov which I want to swap back to standard as I'm having some stalling issues.

Thanks for any help.

www.nengun.com and www.greenline.co.jp are the two cheapest sources for parts I know of, but I think they would be more than $1240 delivered (unless the exchange rate has changed it again). So I'd say $1240 with a hand controller is a damn good price :(

*EDIT: Alot of people seem to be having problems with stalling at low RPM with an atmo vent BOV. I'm guessing it runs so rich at low rpm it stalls. I believe skyrices run 100% duty cycle on the injectors when you back off? Is this true? If it is, does it happen at all rpm / boost pressures, or only above a certain point? Sorry, not trying to hijack

Jaff, We have a brand new FC for your car in stock. $1000 with no HC, but we have one to tune with, and can obviously source one for you if you need it.

Tuning is around $500 depending on any other vehicle issues, and we have successfully tuned plenty of them, and have full in-house dyno facilities.

Give us a call for any further info.

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
