sweet where's ice performance?operator couldnt find it,anyone have there number??Ive got a autometer a/f gauge but i got told not to use it for tunning cause there not that accurate.So it just another gauge next to boost,oil,water .But i must say after putting in a boost gauge it did go heaps better:D .......

or maybe it was the bleed valve that was put in with it??

nah it was the boost gauge

:lol:

You're right not to use it for tuning because they are not what they are used for. It's just an ornament, in my opinion. Greddy A/F meter comes with it's own 02 sensor which although not to professional standards, is useful as far as being able to tune the S-AFC. Set your Fuel ratio at full throttle between 11-12.1 for power and that safety edge (richer than 12.6 max power) to help prevent detonation.

Hey INASNT, that isnt dyno tuned is it? I was quoted by Arnold at HyperTech and he said $365 to fit and get 2 hours on the dyno... $75 is friggen cheap. However HyperTech (formally BGT performance) have a name Australia wide as being one of the best in the best around, and are the distributors for A`Pexi...? If $75 is all its gonna cost me then i am gonna call them aswell, cos i am getting a brand new AFC for $450 and was a bit angry that it was gonna cost almost as much to have it running properly. BTW anyone who wants an AFC get onto Sub-Zero performance in QLD they have them on special fro $450 at the moment, they have none left in stock but are getting more in Feb, and i rang them today adn they will honor the special price in Feb aswell as long as ya call them and tell them about the add 'you saw' in High Performance Imports. L8ters all, J.

I installed my s-afc with grim on our cars ourselfs! it takes about 1 hr and cost us $0. To tune the s-afc only takes about 1 hr at a max as there aint that many points of tuning u can do with it!

$365 to fit and 2 hours to tune? WTF that is out of control. It only takes about 2 hours to tune a Power FC in competent hands, and a good shop will charge about $75/hour max for labour (even though I think I would hesitate at going much over $50/hour) so $365 = 4.86 hours. Either someone doesn't want your business, or they are trying to rip you IMHO

the only reason why the s-afc is cheap now is because there is a new s-afc its called the Super-AFC II, which will be released after christmas

how do you know this? When will it be available in Aust?

I'm getting an SAFC in january and if there's a new one coming out - I'll go for this!

also from what he was saying is that it has more tuning points and features.

There is a new safc (third gen) being released after christmas (now) and it is selling for the same price as the second gen. safc on takakaira.

There is also a limited edition black face model.

It seems to have the ability to be tuned at 200 rpm increments (instead of 500) and a lot of other features which I have no clue of 'cos I can't read japanese - check out the apexi pdf if you can read japanese and please let me know what it means in terms of new features.

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
