thanx Joe

Phil

Im in adelaide is that close enough??????

Really I use tolive in Newcastle and now in Adelaide and NOW moving back to Sydney for work haaaaaaaaaa! Cruzed around newcastle a few years ago in my red r33 gtst with South Australian number plates and only seen 2 skylines i could not wait to get back to adeliade to get my import intake, bla bla any way will bring the GTR to Newcastle to see the folks and bring out for a drive to meet some of you lot as I need to make new friends. Any back to the real question and answer as most know doing up a import is not that hard for bang for bucks .

I reckon Full exhaust and i mean turbo back you lose around 20+ kw if you leave the standard front pipe on and only put a cat back exhaust so do it right if you can and do the whole lot in one hit . Next if you have standard air box leave it as this is the best unless you like the sucking noise just replace the filter to a K&N style this reduces heat and allows good air flow with cleaner air. Front mount dont need to go stupid in size look into it GTR intercoolers are a good option but notthe best and if you look hard enough you will find cheaper. Final is a boost controller i use to have a AVCR i loved it not saying this is the best but it looked good too. with this and a good dyno tune should see your self between 220 and 250rwkw just my thoughts. Want to go nuts on mod your car go to the extream pull the motor out put a RB30 bottom end with your rb25 head power fc which you will need and a 3540 turbo larger injectors bigger fuel rail forged pistons etc list goes on plus will almost need a application for a personal loan. Good luck

well thanks for that nice to know hope to speak you some time but Hope to get more information out of you though :D

Lol. Sorry.:D

Yea the Ceffy's pretty stock atm, with 3" from the turbo back, front mount, Profec B, pod filter.

Dont drive it much these days due to boring company car, that comes with free fuel :)

Big plans though, Power FC, GT30 maby. Anyone got a RB20 block i can have??? :)

Peace.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
