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.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
