Who else would be interested in an Apexi Power FC Boost Controller Kit?

At $987.00, the Power FCs aren't all that cheap (especially for R33s), but if we can save a bit of money on the Boost Controller Kits at the same time, then the offer will start sounding a lot better.

So, yeah, Lucien, can you ask if he will do a good price for Boost Controller Kits as well? He should be able to offer something, considering we're already throwing $30,000.00 at him.

yeah im interested in the boost controller kit.. very interested and the other person im buying one for is kinda interested too.. im just worried that this idea is a little too late.. hmmm hope he can do a deal on that too..

Well, we've got a whole week and I'm fairly sure there would be a lot of interest, assuming Nengun can offer a good price. Maybe $250.00 extra, or something?

And I'm still hoping they will reduce the Power FC price too, given the number of orders. Especially for the S1 R33 units.

Lucien, after some research and some advice from a few people on this forum...ive been convinced that buying a PFC would be a wise nxt move...

So please put me down for an R33 GTS-t Series 2 96

can you please just pm me the payment details etc. etc....

Lucien, You gonna have a great time sortin this mess out here!!! haha. Glad youre havin a weekend off. Your doin a great job handling it all and i'm sure we all appreciate it alot! Just one quick query when you get back, You said we must pay by a "cutoff" date, 26th i think it was. I've seen a few people ask here if it's possible to pay before then, as like the others we have the cash ready to go. Or will you wait till later on in the week to see what other great deals brent has to offer :rofl:

Cheers

Just another quick note to P1E, You said they aren't that cheap. You probably seen on nenguns site that powerfcs are going for around $1035 not inc delivery. These prices keep on dropping due to the good exchange rate at the moment. About 6 or 7 weeks ago i was looking at powerfc's and they were selling for about $1300 not inc freight. And on another note, where in australia can you buy a new powerfc plus hc for under $2000? I know i haven't seen them anywhere!! so i reckon this is a bloody great deal!! Just my 2 cents.

Richy: Just to clarify, I am saying that the prices being offered for this group buy do not seem all that good relative to Nengun's normal prices, not relative to Australian prices. With 30-40 orders, I am hoping Nengun will be able to drop the group buy prices even further (especially for S1 R33), or offer a discount on the Boost Controller Kits. If not, for $92.00 extra, I might end up waiting until after Christmas. Just my two cents, but I think others feel the same way also.

Guys, I'd like to propose chipping in together to buy Lucien one of the boost controllers. It'd work out around $10-12 each, and I think a nice way to say thanks for all the stuffing around he has/is/will go through.

Any thoughts?

Hi All,

Just this second got home. The net was too slow when I was away, so I will answer all your PMs and questions tonight (just need some time to unwind and eat).

Lucien.

lucien i am down dude.

i have pm'd you

please email me on [email protected] with information details.

money is waiting.

ALSO im still unclear about teh tax thing..

the FINAL price i am paying for it to arrive to my door. is $990aud yes. there are NO hidden taxes or costs i hope. otherwise i am not interested.

Ok,

I have gone through all the PMs and emails I recieved (and replied where necessary). Of the people who originally expressed interest it currently stands as : (REMOVED -- PLEASE SEE THE LIST IN THE FIRST POST)

Now, a couple of the people in the unconfirmed list told me they would be out of contact, so that's not a major concern: I still fully expect 20+ confirmed buyers.

Please read this carefully: If you are in the unconfirmed list, and should be confirmed, PM me. If you are in the confirmed list, please check the model number is right (this is crucial!). Finally, if you are unconfirmed and not interested in proceeding, can you please do me the courtesy of letting me know so I can scrub you off: there is no shame, so please let me know. ;)

If you not on either list, don't fret: I will now go through the new replies and requests to be added. Expect to be contacted shortly.

Regarding those asking me to ask for a better price: I am waiting to see the confirmed numbers. Even if there are 30 confirmed, I would be suprised if the price drops. Why? Because you are getting atleast 10% off (depending on model) what is already the lowest price in the market. Again, if I can go to Brent with a huge number more, he may be able to do better, just don't hold your breath. ;)

Lucien.

Hi Again,

I have just contact the people who aren't on the original list and have subsequently expressed interest. That is...:

If I have missed your post/PM/email, or you want to be added, let me know. ;)

If we can't work something out with the Boost Controller Kits, will we at least save on postage? How much will a Power FC and Boost Controller Kit set me back, inc. freight etc?

I am pretty certain we can get 10-15 people in for Boost Kits though, assuming Brent can offer a good price, so please do ask.

It's a bit of a catch-22 at the moment, because I don't know whether to confirm if I am only looking at a $92.00 saving, but on the other hand if I do confirm there is a higher chance of seeing a bigger saving.

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
