well he will never sell it then..

not my problem

one day he will realise that its not worth as much as he wants for it

it seems that it doesnt matter how much i lower the price for this, there's always someone trying to offer less.

maybe mr know-it-all here could tell us where he is planning on getting one for $800. its not going to happen.

Fark off. im sick of this shit. go buy one of these then genius. then wait and see how long it takes, and how much tax and duty you have to pay. ive bought one of these before and i know what i paid and how long i waited. so keep your unsupported ideas to yourself.

unit sold pending payment.

You cannot buy R32 gtst Power FC's for anywhere near $1200 new, let alone second hand.

If i had the money i'd buy it off you aybee. Dont drop your price, someone out there will be willing to pay for it, it might just take time.

Guys i used to work at an import place and i can tell you RIGHT now YOU will not get it for even remotley close to this price unless you get basically cost price and thats just the CPU!

R32 Power FC's r the AP engineering version which cost more, if you would like me to possible SCAN the 2004/5 Apexi Catelouge then i may be able to, then you can SEE how much they actually are.... You can get NON-AP Engineering Power FC's for this price but not the AP Engineering version (WHICH YOU NEED FOR A GTS-t/RB20)

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
