I am semi-interested in one for R33 gts-t..

but like somebody said.. they're only ~$60 cheaper than normal R33 GTS-t s1 price (these are cheaper than other models).

Can somebody explain why i should be buying one right now to save $60 (meh) rather than just ordering at any other time?

Why has he removed the PFC + Handcontroller package for R33 advertised on there for $1060 delivered about 2 days ago??

If the one on their advertised is $997.85 (current exchange rate as @ today) WITH handcontroller (?) and delivery (?).. what are we saving?

AP engineering version? hope this dosent apply to me
i got a R32 GTS-T and if i can get one definately put me down for one at that price.

I'd be down for that too

Don't forget to cross these off the list, or in fact anybody on the list with an R32.. as you DO NEED the AP engineering version if you have an R32 GTS-T .. come on - you guys should know that!

Predator: as I said in answer to the same question earlier, its about $100 cheaper than normal for an R33 GTS-t unit by the time you add shipping and use the correct exchange rate. As you mentioned, its cheaper again for other models.

Yes it includes handcontroller and shipping.

No offence, but its not my job to convince you :P

I didn't add the R32 GTS-t guys to the list if you check the first post.

2GU UP 2: It should be ok if its one of these..?:

IMPREZIA GC8/GF8 A-C 92/11-96/8 EJ20G PFC 414-F001 H/C 415-X001

IMPREZIA GC8/GF8 D-E 96/9-98/8 EJ20G PFC 414-F005 H/C 415-X001

IMPREZIA GC8/GF8 F-G 98/9-00/7 EJ20G PFC 414-F003 H/C 415-X001

babs: added, and I will keep in touch via SMS or phone.

As for increasing the size of the group buy, lets just be happy if we get 20 people to pay and worry about extras later :D I will now contact Brent to let him know we have the numbers and get some details as to where we go now

The previous price was around $1050.. with whatever the exchange rate was (its better now).. WITH shipping included AND handcontroller.. That was advertised for nearly 2 months.. .and then about 2 days ago that price was removed :confused:

13_devil: no problems matey. Suspension is much more important.

[[d a n n y]]: Unless its significantly bigger, I doubt it. There is only so much margin that can be taken off these items.

Anyway, I have emailed Brent. I will let everyone know how it goes.

Lucien.

is it too late to get one now????

ummm

just a quick question if anyone can help me with..

what's the deal with having one of these, if my car only has an exhaust, pod..bov?

like basically what imtrying to ask, is there any use of getting one of these if my car is fairly stock?

I was planning to get one of these in the future when i get more mods..but this deal is too tempting to miss....!!sooo thinking about getting one

hey lwells, all the answers that were directed to ferni, does that apply to an R33 Gts-t s2 as they were referring to the GTR?

umm im on stand-by...still weighing up my options and also checking finances, but when you get the exact cut-off date, ill let you know....have to do some further research first

The same basic theory applies. A PowerFC will basically enable you to make the most of any modifications you make to your car and even on fairly stock cars it allows you much finer tuning possibilities such as achieving ~12:1 air/fuel ratios which will likely net you both fuel and power gains. The more your modify, the more useful the PFC gets, so in that sense its 'future-proof'.

I am not trying to convince you or anyone else to purchase: that's entirely up to you. If you do some searching there should be ample threads to help you makeup your mind :P

Lucien.

yup thanks lucien, i posted a thred up on the forced induction section to get some specific and more detailed advantages....hopefully some experts my give me some advice...

but i am leaning towards getting one..so when u no the cut-off date, let us know

thanks

Hi All,

I am currently in the market for a PowerFC and have noticed a couple of other people are, besides which there always seems to be a demand for these units.

With that in mind, who would be interested in a group buy?

I have spoken to Brent @ Nengun -- who a lot of people have bought parts through over the years -- to get an idea of the discount involved.  Here is what he had to say:

Now obviously there are some considerations:

  • We need 20 people.
  • The exchange rate is a determining factor.
  • The offer is only good for one week.

 

The benefits, however, are:

  • The units are $987.75: I have never seen new PFCs w/ hand controllers for <$1000.  That's almost AVC-R money.
  • The price includes individual delivery
  • The items are duty exempt
  • Any PFC except the AP Engineering units (and D-Jetro/Pro too I imagine)

Edit: Re GST Charges, this is what Brent had to say:

So, if you interested and have (or will have) the funds available, please say so and include your preferred model.  I may as well start the list:

Buyers List: -- 23 and counting :(

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
