Hi fellas

Im in the market for the boost controller and would like to hear your thoughts.

What do you recknon is the one that stands out appart from apexi.I was having a look at Blitz SBC Spec S which is single solenoid boosting upto 1.2 bars. Seems very good, the down side is being a single solenoid.If you've got any suggestions please advise me of it

Thank you

I recommend the GReddy Profec B-Spec II.

The cheapest JDM EBC and it holds boost well. Comes with bells & whistles such as peak boost recording, gain settings, real-time boost reading (like a digital boost gauge).

However it is only single solenoid. Shouldn't be a problem unless you're going to be running huge PSI.

i run a Blitz SBC-iD, holds up to 2.5bar and it's dual solenoid.

So far have had no issues what-so-ever and it mounts very nicely in an R32 ashtray to keep prying eyes in the dark. Kind of nice that it has so many options and that you can pick them up used for about 300$

I bought it because everything in my car must be controllable from the interior and a manual boost controller doesnt offer that. It's a wonderful little toy purely because of that feature alone.

Don't know from experience, but I've heard good things about the dual solenoid version of the one you're talking about. Blitz SBC Spec R. Autobarn have them retailing for $799, and the Spec S for $599, but I know you can get the Spec R (dual) delivered for $500 if you do your research :)

    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW )
    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
