If u hav the spare cash, Blitz i-color, first full color boost controller on the market, it has combined the Blitz Power ID with the Blitz SBC and given it a full color interface display unit...mind-blowing display, if u want something that holds boost well, GReddy Profec B Spec2 or Profec E-01. I've heard the turbosmart ones hold boost well too. The avc-r is not bad, but definitely not the best in holding boost. However, it's easy to use and pretty comprehensive.

BLITZ SBC I-D III

Best Value for Money IMO....

Probably the best on the market next to the New I- Colour but there is around a $500 Price Differance

SBC I-D III -- $ Around 600 Brand New

I-Colour -- $ Around 1K Brand New but has shitloads more Features....

Obviously almost everyone is going to recomend the EBC that they have in their own cars...so I'll do the same :(

I've got a GReddy Profec B Spec II and it does the job for me. It might not have all the snazzy displays of some other EBC's, but it does have most of the functionality that you'll ever need (3 boost settings, gain function, peak hold display, boost warning etc). And most importantly, it holds boost fairly constant through the rev range.

Good value for money :)

Thanks. I tried a search but it wasn't going to be quick...

38 Pages on EBC's :\

I'm leaning towards the boost controller kit for the PFC as it's cheap and has pretty much the same functionality as the AVC-R.

I might add the thing I liked about the Profec B II is the add-on feature you can get with that boost button thingo for the steering wheels :)

I'm going to be using the Turbosmart E-Boost 2 - Apparently, features +++ and controls the extarnal gates NO Problem... So, reviews and peoples experience will be the determining factor I think.... Good Luck in choosing... there is heaps out there.

I second the Jaycar. Its the cheapest and the best.

Make sure you get one that uses the solenoid to completely block off the air flow to the actuator, they work the best in terms of reducing wastegate creep to the lowest possible.

At the moment I have one of those Turbosmart bleed valves..

Would it be an advantage if I got myself an Electronic type boost controller?

If so which would be most suitable Apexi AVC-R, Greddy Profec B II?

I have an Apexi PFC so I was thinking the Apexi AVC-R..

Depends on how much boost you eventually want to run. Above about 1.2 bar you probably should go for a dual solenoid setup - in which case I would recommend the Blitz ID III.

Below that a single solenoid Blitz or an Apexi will do a good job.

Best prices are either from Nengun or Greenline etc.

Gentalman i have an E boost 2 fitted to my r33 with small mods

ok let me say when it was installed it was set too high and i did not like it

but an e mail to turbo smart and no s$% i had a phone call less than 5mins later asking wat was wrong

he told me how to set it

now it is the BEST thing i own, no really it is a boost gauge as well

i can do minor adjustment from my cabin and it holds boost well,

very well + dont need to spend $$$$$ on gauge and they are AUSTRALIAN THEY ARE THE BEST END OF STORY

mine cost me $915 installed but i dont think its needs a dyno straight away it has a 1 to 100 setting 30 is 10psi 40 is 14 psi and so on but only on the 40 psi model.

I am on 30 now 10psi but i can stress enough without taking you for a wrap how user friendly they are

ps i dont work for turbo smart but when you find a good product you tell everyone i think + we should have a thread about good mods so we all no wat is good to buy

How much for the Eboost and how much for a jaycar kit?

I just paid $745 (E-Boost 2)and I'll be doing a self install. So, we'll see how it goes... The Jaycar kit, all up plus an hour or 2 of your time cost about <$150 - although, does it have a "BLING" display like the E-Boost (2)?? :angry:

Also, you'll need a boost gauge and that can be anywhere from $80-$$$$$.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
