hey i'm looking into buying a tommy kaira m25 (r33) and was wondering if any one knows what mods exactly are done to these cars ( apart from the visible ones ) if anyone could direct me to a site that shows the specs i.e mods, power figures, times etc or if anyone that has had one knows them it would be really appreciated thanks. :D

Inside the right-hand-drive Tommykaira R, the driver is surrounded with evidence of the machine's pedigree. The stock vise-tight bucket seats and stock rear seats are trimmed in trademark Tommykaira red, and there's a Tommykaira steering wheel that's sublime to squeeze. In front and in plain sight is the Tommykaira gauge cluster, which houses, among other things, a 10,000-rpm tachometer with a lofty 8000 rpm redline. Tommykaira also mounted three gauges in a carbon-fiber surround, detailing boost pressure, oil temperature, and by far the coolest one, torque distribution between the front and rear wheels.

To the right of the steering wheel is the ignition. When the key is twisted, the car comes to life with a bark from the A'PEXi N1 downpipe and Tommykaira exhaust, then settles into a glass smooth 900-rpm idle. Thanks to Charles having deleted the catalytic converter and adding an A'PEXi intake, the TKR's voice is slightly more pronounced when clearing its throat, but it's far from obnoxious. This is one of those rare cars with more bite than bark. The slightly massaged twin Garrett turbochargers and 50-percent larger than stock Tommykaira intercooler extract a claimed 465-crank hp from the 2.6-liter engine.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
