After recently getting my intercooler installed i am now looking at a form of decent boost control and a fuel pump.

Mods so far are:

full 3" exaust, a'pexi pod and obviousally the FMIC.

The question is, has anyone had any experience with the Gizzmo IBC? how do these units compare to the SBC-II? Not only is the Gizzmo much cheaper, its also supporting local economy.

Here is a link : http://www.gizzmoelectronics.com/products_...controller.html

Advice is valued and appreciated :(

Haven't heard of them or anybody using one. Not saying that it's bad or anything but the Apexi AVC-R which is going at a pretty good price on the Nengun site is definately recommended. Check it out at www.nengun.com they have a full description on the AVC-R.

You should also be able to find the SBC-II on there and they are very good on price I've found.

Its a new product from an established nz brand. They are going at $450. The people at the car parts place i usually go to said that they are a great product but i always like a second opinion.

i have one installed on my r33 no probs with it great product i would install another

the only down side is they are rectangle so unlike the turbosmarts you cannot pillar mount them

did you buy one and where did you mount yours

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
