hi guys i was just wondering how many of you want power fcs for an rb20 r32??? i have sent in a few emails regarding the best prices i can get. i have estimated around 10 - 15 people would want one at the right price. i have noticed alot of people trying to sell PFC's for r33's and r34's but no one has made an attempt to obtain a excellent price and order a few of these. i should receive and email either today or tommorow regariding prices so purely looking for interest now. could people just post if they are interested.

thanks

jon

So far the best price i have got is $1500 delivered. so what do u guys think??

ok interest so far:

1 - Cubes

2 - Black rb20 silvia

3 - Jaystar

4 - wizard2k

5 - nf

6 - drifto

7 - 46n2

8 - R31 Koop

9 - Masters

10 -

the reason there are more for r33 and r34 as its a stock apexi unit

there is no stock apexi unit for r32, its ap engineering one which is like a remodel of the r32 ecu to support powerfc interface. usual retail is like 1600+ normal powerfc is only 1000

ok price confirmed cheapest is 1550 on the basis 15 units are bought. so let me know if this is too much and i will cancel it. I think this is a quite good price myself

These PowerFC's are the latest version that also comes with the handcontroller bundled?

Nengun have them for some where up around the $1600 mark.

Greenline have the previous AP Engineering PowerFC that wasn't bundled with the handcontroller.

The PFC Pro's only real feature is its ignition cut vs the stock fuel cut when you bounce of the rev limit.

It also has a little feature of allowing a launch controll if you like which holds rev's constant until you pop the clutch.

That last feature is ok but I honestly wouldn't bother with the Pro version UNLESS you were planning to run NOS or just wanted the bling rev limit launch control feature.

Depending on the type of NOS system you run the stock fuel cut on the std. PFC will blow the little ol RB instantly.

I could see the launch control feature being handy with the rb20 though.

The RB30 doesn't need it.

Don't get me wrong though... I'm not nocking it or you Razor at all. ;)

Back on topic..

Do these PowerFC's come with a handcontroller?

heard back from the supplier that they will take 1 month to get in once payments are made and these items are exempt on any type of duty. so come on peeps we need more numbers

    • perhaps i should have mentioned, I plugged the unit in before i handed over to the electronics repair shop to see what damaged had been caused and the unit worked (ac controls, rear demister etc) bar the lights behind the lcd. i would assume that the diode was only to control lighting and didnt harm anything else i got the unit back from the electronics repair shop and all is well (to a point). The lights are back on and ac controls are working. im still paranoid as i beleive the repairer just put in any zener diode he could find and admitted asking chatgpt if its compatible   i do however have another issue... sometimes when i turn the ignition on, the climate control unit now goes through a diagnostics procedure which normally occurs when you disconnect and reconnect but this may be due to the below   to top everything off, and feel free to shoot me as im just about to do it myself anyway, while i was checking the newly repaired board by plugging in the climate control unit bare without the housing, i believe i may have shorted it on the headunit surround. Climate control unit still works but now the keyless entry doesnt work along with the dome light not turning on when you open the door. to add to this tricky situation, when you start the car and remove the key ( i have a turbo timer so car remains on) the keyless entry works. the dome light also works when you switch to the on position. fuses were checked and all ok ive deduced that the short somehow has messed with the smart entry control module as that is what controls the keyless entry and dome light on door opening   you guys wouldnt happen to have any experience with that topic lmao... im only laughing as its all i can do right now my self diagnosed adhd always gets me in a situation as i have no patience and want to get everything done in shortest amount of time as possible often ignoring crucial steps such as disconnecting battery when stuffing around with electronics or even placing a simple rag over the metallic headunit surround when placing a live pcb board on top of it   FML
    • 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.
