Hey, reading this now and just one query:

If I was looking at mid spec -> high end gear how much would stage 1 of the R33 GTS25T cost???

Also, how do I tell the difference between a high quality cat flow? Purely on cost??? I don't know too much about exhausts. I am trying to find a guide on purchasing an exhaust and the ins and outs but having trouble.

EDIT: Online (just for price guides) I can mostly find gear for the R32 RB20DET, these engines are pretty similar arn't they? Universal gear for these? So around the same costs?

Cheers.

depends what parts you use if you never plan on going past stage 1

- R34 GTT intercooler $100- 200

- R32 GTST wastegate actuator $30 - 50

- Power FC with hand controller $950 or second hand SAFC $300

- 3" small body casco highflow cat and open bellmouth front/dump pipes $300- 400 (call justjap.com)

- Second hand cat back exhaust $400 - $600

- optional exhaust cam gear - $90 (in group buy section)

- add labour and tuning on top of this

(You may also need to budget for a new fuel pump and clutch)

This will get you around 180 - 200rwkw depending on engine condition etc.

If I had my time again this is what I would have done, but if I planed on going a larger turbo down the track id change a few things

- larger intercooler (hybrid or copy)

- split front/dump pipe (from batmbl)

- stainless cat (from Batmbl)

- Electronic boost control (nengun or second hand)

Or you can pay top dollar for brand name parts and get similar (maybe slightly better results) places to check for parts

www.justjap.com

http://www.bosimporting.com.au/ PM BATMBL on the forums for specials

- the for sale section of these forums

- for actuators IC etc use the WTB section

For genuine Jap parts the prices on these sites are hard to beat

www.nengun.com

www.greenline.jp

cheers

    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
