boost controller, either bleed valve or Electronic and a Front mount intercooler or if u wanna save money buy a second hand GT-T intercooler if u dont plan to run too much boost. if you have money left over run it on the dyno and see what your power output is and if ur a/f ratios' are rich, buy a safc to lean them out or better yet, safe for a power fc :laugh:

the front mount itself wont give u much in perfromance, it will only let u run higher boost. you could buy a cheap bleed valve off the forums or an ebc for about 300-400 bux from nengun. as for the front mount it should set u back about 500 bux for a decent kit from justjap. its not that hard to put in but if u were after someone, itd be about 200-300 bux id say. the ebc mite cost u a bit to put in as well, maybe a cuppla hundred. u gotta search around man.

heat shield the pod filter (you are sucking in hot air) or revert back to factory airbox with K&N / pipercross filter etc.

If it's not an auto , a better clutch than factory is going to be needed.

Pineapples - diff cradle bushes.

A good set of tyres is also worth a thought if you have crappy ones.

Leave the fmic alone till you are ready to decide what sort of engine package you want to develop.

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
