You cant realy do anything to the stock ecu on r33. You could get a SAFC2 though, that will hook into the standard ecu and will let you control the air/fuel levels.

Ive got a safc2, its pretty cool but i wish i got a powerfc :cheers:

I think the R32's ecu can be reprogrammed again, but no such luck for the 33's.

thats it. the stock computer cannot be adjusted at all, something to do with emission laws at the time? i just bought a power fc for mine, i havent installed it yet, but from what i have been reading its well worth the expense.

Yeah man i actually ordered it from that group buy section..but the thing is..some of them mentioned that with the current STOCK car i have, the power FC is useless. What i am going to do is just to get a Turbo Back, FMIC and if i have leftover money, will save up for a new HKS turbo. Then after that maybe a bosch fuel pump and injectors.

How are you guys going with petrol?? with mine, i only did 360kms full tank! stock R33 GTST S2!! :P

A power fc will still be beneficial to a stock car.

But you should do the basic mods first like

Exhaust

FMIC

Boost etc.

Then with the power fc you will notice the greatest gain.

However there is not to much sense in spending $400 to tune a power fc to a stock car then having it retuned to a mod, Waste of time and money.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
