Some one offer me $50 for the whole HKS set up and it will be yours, just pay the additional shipping. If not there will be a video soon of me shooting it with my new Five-seveN....seriously!

HKS FCON destroyed in seconds! Video 2/2 - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3sM1zEKJco&sns=em)
Spent $800 (total) on this stuff. The HKS FCON was $500, the HKS GCC $200, and the carbon fiber coil pack cover for SR20DET was $75. Long story short I couldn't sell the HKS stuff for $50. I could not use it because it needs to be tuned with software i don't have, HKS authorized shops do. Had it for about seven years. Angered me every time I saw it! So it was time to take care of that. The carbon piece is from Chaser Aero aka aerokits.net. Picture on the site shows it already drilled to bolt on. It came to me with no holes drilled in it. Picture on site shows holes already. They said it was not drilled any more and that the best way to hold it is Velcro. Sales rep said that way I can easily access my coils/plugs. That is bs cause adhesive does not like to stick in hot environment. I tried it anyway and after a five minute drive it was in my exhaust manifold. Then I tried my best to drill holes in it, let's just say I am not a carbon fiber worker and it is trash now. I contacted them (prior to drilling) and they said all they could possibly do is give me some money off of another product of theirs. I took a $75 dollar loss cause I didn't want to spend more money on another shit product.

Had it posted for over three months on four different forums. Price was down to $50 and no one wanted to spend the $$$.

You SIR did the RIGHT thing! Congrats and thank you for having the balls to do that! You saved someone else from headaches and possibly and blown motor, who knows what that type of shit! I'm especially happy because you busted a few caps in that F-CON with my favorite pistol from Counter Strike! :D
Fucking epic video LOL.. People thought you weren't serious, but now they're shitting their pants because you weren't f!king around.. Hahahahaha

I was far enough away that it was safe. Video was taken from my iPhone sitting on a table, I was worried for it though!

You have inspired me! I couldn't even give away some good parts I have collected over the years. Seems target practice is a viable option now lol.
We need to start a thread "Aftermarket parts destryoyed in Minutes".

This needs to happen soon! Currently I am deployed, but its game time when I get back. I have two firiends that need to work out a problem. One has a RB25 setup that on one will buy. Annother has a Barrett .50 BMG that he needs more practice with. Together we have worked out the intro to the new thread.

That's pretty funny but why did you buy it not knowing it could only be accessed by a HKS pro dealer only?

When I bought it I lived in Japan, but never built the car enough to warrant the $600 a shop wanted to put it on dyno and tune it.

BULLSHIT!!! We didnt have a dyno!!! Besides, no shops in Oki touch F-CON. Only one person did and it was on the hush hush. You have to be in the know for him to even touch it.

Technosports
Technosports was shut down before I even got on island in 07. Hell, my car was on a technosports rom tune. First thing that went out was that with the 550s, and replaced with a PFC/850cc injectors.

Explain this. He bought an old ass version of the fcon which i would never buy because there is NO support. The vpro is their current ecu and is one of the best ecu's out there but i won't go into its features because that's another thread topic.
You do need a tuner with the vpro because hks doesn't want just anyone to tune it. That doesn't bother me because I don't really care to be a tuner but a lot of wannabe tuners were butthurt by this lol. With everyone and their mom claiming to be a "tuner" these days that's a good thing imo.
It's a free country but :picardfp:
