Yes & No,

Yes, because if you get them to work they basically work, and you can have extra features that you can have with a bleed valve, stoping boost from spiking, making it spike, gear & rpm specific boost etc.

No, because they can be a pain in the rectum to set up properly and can take some time. - refering to the Apexi AVC-R.

If you'r after a decent controller that is only been new to the market go with the JayCar electronic boost controller - You can't go wrong for $150 with the digital read-out Hand Controller.

For more info on the JC controller view the Nissan Stagea section under Vehicle Specific Discussion. :(

yep, so much safer to run ebc than bleed valve if you are wanting to achieve (or not go beyond) a specific boost pressure. there are plenty of posts regarding the pro's and con's of both if you are interested in searching...

There is a group buy for the Jaycar boost controller on now, if we get 2 more people they are about $48+GST for the actual boost controller and about $38+GST for the hand adjuster.

So buy one! Then i can get mine for cheap too...

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
