I'm looking for a FMIC for my stagea rs4, I 've come across a couple of r33 FMIC's on sale ....both the r33 and stagea run the same rb25det ...so my question is will the piping for the FMIC be a direct bolt on affair on the stagea?

Sorry guys. ..im sure there must be a thread on this somewhere but I need a quick anwser so I can place a bid on the IC.

if it is one of these link then it will fit well, I think R33 kits do fit but all are different and fitting a front mount ususally means some small modifications to make it fit... The kit above has been designed for the Stagea so it would no doubt fit better than an R33 kit.

Hope that helps.

Hi EGA4it ...did you have to cut any holes or move any bits to get the piping in place? looks like you got a custom front bar there....dunno if the cooler will fit snugly with the standard bar in place ...399 is cheap tho...well worth considering.

I bought an R33 ARC crossflow cooler kit for mine and i did not have to cut any holes or chop any of the reinforcement bar at all the only thing that needed s little bit of modification was the front bar, but what i did cut out of it you cant see anyway except for the part where the number plate was but that was my decision it didnt need to be chopped for it to fit

Hey Andy, you did an awesome job at installing the kit.

Definately one of the neatest installs I've seen.

P.S do you mind if I use some of your pictures?

P.P.S the kits are now $349 + freight for SAU and NS.com users :(

I run gktech from a small office (aka my bedroom), I purchase by the container load and employ 0 (zero) people.

My expense aren't that great and I work on quite low margins, but work on quantity.

I think the main difference between myself and alot of these eBay sellers that can't speak english is that I concentrate on quality as I use alot of this stuff on my own cars.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
