Hey guys, I decided that I am not going to do my SR swap anymore, so i'm getting rid of some of the items that I had purchased for it. One of them is this HKS F-Con V Pro. It's a piggyback/standalone ECU for anyone with an SR20DET. Right now its pre-tuned to adapt to the best performance for any SR, but for those who want to tune it further can use the harness (a $150 value) thats included within this sale. Below are some pics I just took of my F-Con and a brief layout of what the F-Con can do.

This is an exerpt from http://www.takakaira.co.jp:

Applicable to all kinds of fuel management systems - The F-CON V can work with almost any type of fuel computers, such as those determining the mass of the intake air by the flap door airflow meter, the pressure transducer or the throttle angle sensor. It can also control systems providing fuel by a single injector or multi injectors, controlling injectors simultaneously or individually, controlling spark timing simultaneously or individually, and those igniting by single coil with distributor or the multi-coils (direct ignition). Moreover, the F-CON V is applicable up to eight cylinder engines, controlling each cylinder individually.
Flexible system accpets all kinds of sensor signals - The F-CON V can understand almost any type of sensor signals such as any airflow meters, pressure sensors, throttle angle sensors, water temperature sensors, intake air temperature sensors, speed sensors, and crank angle sensors. Furthermore, addition to the original sensor signals, it can take signals that are produced by the HKS GCC2 (for the fuel and ignition) fuel mixture controller and the VPC. The F-CON V receives all of these signals and then processes the received data according to the maps and formulas installed in the EEP-ROM, as a result, it controls the engine more precisely and efficiently than the stock control unit does.
Directly controls fuel and ignition - The F-CON V directly controls not only the fuel system, but also the igntion system. It accurately reads the ignition timing produced by the factory controller, and then determines the best ignition timing considering the sensor signals and its maps. Therefore it manages ignition system more accurately than most ignition systems which trick the original sensors in order to make the original controller provide the desired ignition timing.
Capable of resetting fuel cut points - The F-CON V receives the airflow meter, pressure sensor and speed sensor signals before the original controller, therefore it can be set to prevent any fuel cut, such as high boost and high speed by limiting the signal passing through the F-CON V. In addition, the F-CON V controls engine beyond the rev limit by referring to the sensor signals and its map, even though the original controller stops providing both the injector and the ignition signal. In other words, the F-CON V is able to function by itself without receiving the signals from the original in order to extend the rev limit.
Scamble mode - Adding the optional scramble switch to the option connector at the front panel on the F-CON V, you are able to activate the scramble mode that increases horsepower at the moment. At that point, the F-CON V refers to set scramble maps. Since the scramble mode will be used for a short time period, the maps can be set so the engine produces the most power which might not be safe for long time use. Diagnosis display - In case of failure in the F-CON V unit, the airflow meter, pressure sensor, crank angle sensor, throttle position sensor, water temperature sensor or the intake air temperature sensor, the self diagnosis system warns of the failure by turning on its error LED located on the front panel.
Capable of managing a fully modified engine - The stock ROM replacement systems can't control the high power engine which produces the output signal beyond the limit of the original sensors. The F-CON V, however, can control them suitably by using an optional pressure sensor and changing the programs.
Easy fine-tune - There are several maps to choose from. The F-CON V can be tuned by selecting the proper maps from four fuel maps and four ignition maps. On the other hand, the stock ROM replacement-systems cant be tuned easily. To adjust differences in the engine specifications or the other conditions, you can select the maps by the tuning dipswitchs on the front of the F-CON V, or use the optional GCC2 and the fuel mixture controller for fine tune.
It is easy to re-program using a PC - Upon connecting the PC to the F-CON V, data can be exchanged between the F-CON V and your PC. Data such as diagnosis and engine signals can be viewed. Furthermore, the program determining the management of the engine can be re-programmed from your PC, since it is stored into the EEP-ROM. Replacing the ROM is no longer needed.
Surpasses the stock control unit performance - The F-CON V processes faster, controls the engine more precisely, and has a larger map than any stock control unit (ECU). No cutting of the engine harness required - The F-CON V can be installed without modifying the original harness or the control unit. Therefore you can easily switch the system back to the original by simply removing the F-CON V harness.
F-CON V is movable - The stock ROM replacement system has to stay with the original car in the event of changing the car to another model. In contrast, the F-CON V can be installed to another model by simply reprogramming it and purchasing a new harness (provided it is compatible). In addition, you pay a price mostly for the software for the stock ROM replacement systems, since a cost of the ROM itself is minimal. However, the F-CON V contains the value of both the software and hardware which will last for a long time.

This F-Con retails at well over $1000 for the unit and $150 for the harness, but i'm willing to let it go for $600 shipped anywhere within the united states. This unit is an invaluable piece of equipment for any SR tuner.

This unit is located in Gaithersburg, MD. I accept paypal and cash as well as almost any trades. Right now I am looking for a pair of wantanabes and a pair of meshies so if anyone can satisify that requirement, I would accept it as an even trade.

Hey do you still have the HKS F-Con. If so would you go any lower on the price
