HKS F-CON V or Power FC

[AshRX]

possibly, not before the supra box and wastegate is on though and I have enough dollar left

[BlitzBoy]

ahh you are defo going Supra box, did you find a six speeder then?
Which brand gearbox\\bellhousing adapter you going for?

[marco]

sorry to thread hijack, but at what point does changing from an apexi to an Fcon/motec become worthwhile? i take it they are overkill for twins and smallish singles, and really are for those looking to wring every last Hp out? or does the map resolution on them (i know the hks has more points, i guess the motec does as well) give better driving/response?

[AshRX]

If your running a big single on big ports you will need to go HKS as the apexi cant seem to contol the idle on a half bridge brilliantly and plus you can fine tune the HKS a lot more and get extra ponies over the Apexi. For twins and up to T04z i would stay with Apexi as it does job well.

Mark, off the Supra OC, friend of a friend, ill have a word if your really interested in going that route.

Adaption plate will be custom made by a transmission place in Kent, ill get you details if you want. Need the box first though

[marco]

Cheers for that ash, i guess that saves me a few quid, well unless i find an F-Con at a bargain price.....

Defo interested see if he will give us a discount if we got two adapter plates made at the same time, be interested if they came in cheaper then the Oz place

[AshRX]

will keep you posted dude, getting hold of the boxes wont be a problem trust me.

Marco no probs dude, ecu do come up cheap sometimes, need someone that is breaking a car. Sometimes the Vendors get second hand ones in

I am keeping my eyes out then for the apexi and the F-con Pro! I spoke to re-worx and it has to be the pro version otherwise they can\'t do it?

What\'s this about a six speed supra box?!

If you have a design/3D model of the adaptor you require. (I presume it\'s to be machined in ally?) I maybe able to get a good price for you?

You will need to speak to Blitz about that.

The supra manual box can take a big wack through it so seems the best way to go at the mo. People have started using the 8 box but there is a lot of modification to do in the car as the gear lever comes forward hell of a lot and sits where your stereo is, so the dash will need work.

The supra box sits fine and with the adaption plates will make a nice upgrade for the FD\'s

I have a F-con pro I dont want.

[BlitzBoy]

Been looking at gearboxes over the last year, Greddy and HKS boxes to noisy (dog gears) and expensive for my taste, the RX8 box is an option but dont like the gear lever position and you have to mod where the clutch slave cylinder sits.
The Supra boxes are designed to take 500bhp from the factory, so with an adapter plate you can keep the stock FD bell housing,starter motor,slave cylinder. Got a mate with a Supra, he runs 580 at the wheels still with his stock 6 speeder with no groans from it for the last couple of years

[AshRX]

Seen the Gilken boxes Mark?

£1450 delivered from Japan

[BlitzBoy]

But arnt they dog boxes?

[leeroy_25]

Dragon...Let me know price... you can e-mail ma on Leeroy_25@hotmail.com

Don\'t suppose you are the dragon from thew GTR OC who pm\'d me about the midnight purple number?
Cheers.

Is this six speed box simple swap then other than the adaptor plate? It sounds so!
Are we saying Blitz has the machining data for said adaptor plate?

Tar!

But arnt they dog boxes?

not sure mate, thought you could tell me
