in Adelaide there's probably only 3 people i would consider seeing to get my car tuned!

John Keen - Hi tech Dyno

Shaun Dunns - Boostworx

Brett - Graham West (Adelaide Performance Engineering)

99% of the people in the S.a section will agree with me on those 3 people!

As for the Rb30 bottom end i've got an rb30 in my 32 and it is definitely well worth it! You only need to read some of the 190 odd page thread in the forced induction section to see that but its not straight forward and would require your car being off the road for a period of time. The other major factor is the cost, if done properly its not that cheap seeing 250rwkw's!

Ok, I called Ashley at Graham West in Adelaide.

This is what I have been suggested.

Let me know what you think.

PowerFC Comp (DJetrow)

PowerFC Boost Controller

ASE Intercooler

3" Exhaust, WIth Front Down, and Dump Pipe and Hi FLo Cat.

Rebuild my stock Turbo into a GT30 Internals Limited to 250rwkw

Bosch 040 Fuel Pump

Z32 Air Flow Meter

Nismo 550 Injectors

Does this sound like what I should be looking out for?

PowerFC Comp (DJetrow) - STANDARD POWER FC IS SUFFICIENT

PowerFC Boost Controller - NOT NECESSARY BUT A GOOD CHOICE

ASE Intercooler - CHEAP JUST JAP COOLER WILL BE FINE

3" Exhaust, WIth Front Down, and Dump Pipe and Hi FLo Cat. - DEFINITE

Rebuild my stock Turbo into a GT30 Internals Limited to 250rwkw - MANY PEOPLE WILL HAVE DIFF OPINIONS ON THIS!

Bosch 040 Fuel Pump - DEFINITE

Z32 Air Flow Meter - DEFINITE

Nismo 550 Injectors- NOT SURE BUT SOUNDS ABOUT RIGHT

Dunno if ashley is the best guy to speak to at graham west, brett is your man!

These are the best front/dumps so I've been told and the catco metal cats flow better

and Gr33dy on this forum has good prices on Hybrid GT spec coolers,Apexi PFC ecu's,bosch fuel pumps etc...

www.nengun.com for injectors and z32 afm, CGC in nsw for high flow(rebuilding stock turbo)

Im going with the turbosmart E boost 2 compact boost controller

but Im considering the nengun HKS GTrs/PowerFC/Nismo Injector package looks like the price works out about the same as getting a high flow and pFC etc...

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
