you've already posted this, why do it again?

some questions

what cold air intake?

what tyres?

what suspension mods?

the exhaust may be too small, a dyno run with the exhaust on and exhaust off will reveal that

the apexi safc is a piggyback, you dont need it as you have chosen stand alone engine management

the apexi rsm is a digital speed / tacho.

Yeah looks like you've got quite a few goodies that you dont even know what they are for. Anyway like others have said make sure its got 3" turbo back zorst, if its just 3" cat back then I would personally upgrade to split dump pipes plus highflow cat. Then you are ready for a tune. My guess is that you can make about 250rwkw+ but obviously depending on the tune, usually there are surprises/problems that can only be seen when having it tuned.

sorry for posting 2 similar topics

just interested in others opinions

I've actually already got a 3" exhaust system straight through, Hi flow cat with 3" in to 5" out turbo muffler at the rear.

didn't think i'd need an SAFC, but this loser at autobarn was trying to convince me otherwise. lol

Does an RSM really do anything worth while?

Can anyone else suggest things worth while getting for my project?

moral of that story.. dont listen to autobarn sales ppl lol

Too right... they talk so much shit.

Wouldn't they be better off hiring staff that know stuff bout cars etc.

rather than just people trained in retail

I had a very similar setup in my R33, i got 246.6kw atw on 16PSI. Had more in it. You should with a good tune make between 250-265. no worries.

In my opinion RSM's are a waste of money, you have a spedo & tacho in front of you. Why do you need another one?? The only thing half decent about it is the optional G sensor function.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
