THIS IS WHAT IT SAYS ABOUT IT:

just want 2 know if any 1 has had anything 2 do with them..??

NISMO RACING CHARGING STABILIZER

NEW Racing Charging System

Fits all vehicle (Nismo special design for Nissan vehicles)

Benefits:

** Increase Torque ** Increase Fuel Economy ** Car Response Up

** Stable Idling ** Quick Engine Start ** Lesser Engine Noise

** Optimize Electrical Equipment performance

EBay again?

It's not genuine Nismo btw.

You're much better off spending (less than) that on some thick gauge wire upgrading your car's earthing points. See this thead for an example: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...topic=82677&hl=

That sounds like the HKS Circle Earth system. Autosalon did a review of the HKS one a while back and said for the money it wasn't worth it, and you'd be better off making one up yourself like raz0r$harP suggested. But it makes your engine bay look nice!

"Oh no it's the cops!"

"Worse, the police cops!"

Yah it is expensive !!!

But hey they are samples so I will try them out.

I have to admit that when I first put it on my car, it was idling much nicer. When I had the Metal Plus it did seem to get me more kms, then I tried the Torque one and kms per tank went down but my car does feel more torquey.

There are 3 other people trying various ones so we will see if we can come to a conclusion at the end.

Autosalon tested the HKS Circle Earth kit on 3 cars: a '94 Pulsar GTi, a series V RX7 and a Forrester XT. From memory they didn't notice any difference in the RX7, but in the Pulsar the owner said he thought it started easier on cold mornings, and his audio system sounded slightly better. In the Forrester, they did notice a gain of like 2kw's or so, but a slight drop in torque in the mid range. They also gave a step by step guide of how to make one yourself and what to buy, was very easy to make for fiddy bucks. They sound like a good idea in theory though, but I'd rather try to make my own for $50 than spend like $380 or so for a brand name one.

well these 1's might be cheapees but for $70 they sound like they are worth a go 2 me..?? anyway i am after sound quality.. so it should help out there

The brand name ones are of questionable use: they probably make some difference of cars with poor earthing. The Pivot ones cost about $120.

Do you really think some Ebay knockoff with a fake brand name is going to be worth the hassle?

Ive had the Apexi one installed to help with Grounding and Idle issues in my car, they definitely help with the idle at the very least. Im not sure about all the other claims of more torque and better fuel economy. Seems like every mod in eBay says it improves fuel economy.

Is there specific point in the engine bay these wires are meant to go to?

Or is it just pick a metal spot on the engine and it'll be allright?

Ive been watching this topic for a while...

the actual power stabilisers have nothing to do with earthing, so in fact you are only comparing the quality of cables. Good quality cable from an electronics supplier will give you very similar earthing results. Another thing is that if the car already has a good earth, the kit will not provide a huge difference, but for older cars with poor earths it will be beneficial.

the powerstabiliser box smooths out votage fluctuations, which can help with starting and ICE. you may not even see an increase in votage tho.

in my opinion the PIVOT one is not worth it, they are relying on people to buy for the brand, I have done alot of research into these and have used similar systems on RC cars in the past.

I have built my own power stabiliser, for around $25 you can make a quite decent one that is compareable or the same as alot of commercial ones, the pivot one may be the best but imho it is not $75 better. I was planning on selling these but I did not want to supply a product that produced such a small performance gain, and testing on my car did not convincingly prove that it provided a noticable result

    • Had a go at the stuck crush tube this afternoon. Tried things like grips and a chain wrench first but wouldn't just twist straight off. So got to work with a drill. Started small and kept a depth stop on to make sure I didn't drill into the bolt. Made a line of drill holes all the way up and enlarged them. Then a combination of chisel and Dremel to split it all the way up. Levered the split to get oil in there and eventually it gave a bit while levering. Worked it back and forth with loads more oil till it was spinning freely, then with grips I could work it downwards and off. And no significant damage to the bolt (not by me anyway - just the 27 years of rust)
    • Well, I'm tired. I'm tired because about 4PM yesterday, before today's appointment someone immediately bought my bumper. They couldn't get it any other day as they're on the way back to NSW. So I had to do that big GTR conversion I had been planning. Unfortunately, the information on SAU about what you need and how this is done is incomplete. So what should be a simple bolt on affair, yeah, it's not. Did you know if you use all GTR items the bonnet won't close? This little manuever sent me into about 1am the night before trying to dodge a way to get it closed. I will have to revisit this in the next few days  - or maybe not, I may let a body shop figure it out. It all needs to come up and my motivation to pull the bumper off is low. It also seems to hit things in the bay where the GTT bonnet didn't. Yes I used 100% new OEM GTR items. Today, I had the joy of driving to the dyno looking like this: Given I had roughed in the fuel and given sensible but pretty conservative timing, I didn't really bet on having the car drive out any real difference than when it drove in. Sadly due to a miscommunication and laptop fun and games (and almost bricking the dongle, prayers and firmware updates indeed), I ended up using HP Tuner credits to licence the car that was already licenced. So in the end my laptop was used. It turns out my butt dyno is still well calibrated after all this time. The 325kw was on 74% Ethanol, the 313kw line was on 98. The other line is the 'before' line which was 281kw. While the numbers are pretty low, they're pretty in line with what you'd expect. Even if US dynos bump the whole result up about 50KW, gaining 10-15% is similar gains.  The curve of the cam is pretty much spot on with what was discussed as well. All this said, it still feels bad to not see the number you secretly want to see. Even if the car drove great beforehand, and I knew pretty confidently the car would drive out much the same way it drove in due to the nature of a wellish dialled in LS1 not gaining much if anything at all from being tuned from where it was. As expected, the car isn't particularly sensitive to running it at anywhere between 12.0 and 13.0 - And the initial timing at 20deg and 12.0 made 308KW. So 3 degrees of timing, and leaning it out to 12.7 for 5kw, anything above stopped giving any benefit until E85 (which has an additional 2 deg as before). Car itself behaved entirely fine. I found out that 100C = 1.15V! IAT at about 7pm was 19C. I might mess with the bonnet mounting.. but given the REO NEEDS TO BE CHOPPED TO FIT A GTR BAR this is possibly something I may leave gathering (more) dust until it returns to paint jail.
    • It sounds farrrrrrr too cold at your place Duncan... Here I was thinking our 10 degrees overnight is getting cold...
    • oh yeah, reminded this morning....bin lids frozen shut too
    • In my case not, because of total reno. But yeah.
