    Hi I was just wondering if anyone could help me with a few questions regarding the use of an Apexi Power FC in a Z32 TT 300zx. I have done some reading on this site and others and have come to the belief that even though there was no specific model of an Apexi Power FC made for the 300zx it is possible to use the Power FC from an R33 GTST Skyline in a 300zx. So I guess this question is for the people who have an Apexi Power FC installed in the cars at the moment or for anyone who might know the answers anyway.
    My questions are:

    If I buy an r33 GTST model of a power fc will I be able to use it on my Z32 300zx?
    Will it be plug straight in?
    What changes need to be made to the wiring loom for it to work?
    Will it in fact work? Or am I dreaming?

    I was just wondering if anyone could provide me with any further information regarding this to either confirm or deny the information that I have been given. And yes I have already asked UAS, I was just wondering if anyone knew of any other tuners that I could speak to who might be able to help me with my questions.

    Cheers from Andrew

    theres a mob in the east somewhere doing a direct plug in powerFC for the 300zx

    do a search, i cant remember who it was

    why go AM ECU when the nissan ECU can be tuned?

    Apexi

    Thanks for having a crack at my question, the mob over this side that do a plug and play system is UAS and I have already spoken to them.
    I was after just the unit not the whole dyno setup and I dont have the cash they want to set it up (I have a mate with a dyno). I know you can tune a standard computer but I was after something that you can change to suit your setup and any mods you want to make like cams, turbos etc.

    Cheers From Andrew

    some differences that i can think of

    2nd stage fuel pump.
    firing order of the skyline is different to the zed's.
