Hey guys, currently only have a stockie '96 R33 S2 M-Spec but having gone from a 98 Honda Accord immediately felt the power difference in every aspect. Now after only a month im used to it and it just feels like any old car...time for upgrades i think :pirate: first was thinking of turbo back exhaust, if done right apparently you can pick up anywhere in between 20-30rkws! This would make a significant improvement and secondly FMIC.

What are your opinions? Thanks in advance!

you have the right mod first, plenty of power is gained from a good exhaust. i went from 144 to 169rwkw with a split dump pipe, 3" system and 5" cat. thats your best option to start with. them fmic and boost, then next level ecu, injectors, pump, turbo, clutch etc etc...

yeh when i had 254 before i blew it up it felt slow....but now 12months later 200kw @6psi lol feels fast but getting tuned for 18 next week....make sure you do your mods in stages so that you get the feel for the car at each power level, i know dudes that went bang heres 15k on mods 12 months later there bored again. rather than do it slow and have more fun

Watch out for the power bug LOL

I went from 199rwk's to 260 and then 292rw's. Now that even feels slow, until you line up a crapy comodore. LOL

As a few of the guy's said before though, the more often you drive it , the less spectacular it feels.

I ownly drive my GTR 1-2 times a week now and get more pleasure from driving it . Damm beats the 1.6 laser wagon. LOL

8 months of withdrawal though waiting for the new clutch. Now its back on the road , Im in heaven. :(

Im now sick of 382rwkw that ive only had for 1 week, but have been driving it a fair bit.

As mentioned the less you drive your car the better it feels.

not bragging ae we?

i agree that above 300 is great but i wouldnt say im sick of it! thats a big call...

where can you use it?

if its a street car then 300 - 350 is ample and can / will get you into alot of trouble with the po po!!

just my thoughts...

Keep in mind the other alternative to make it fun is to make it perform better overall e.g not just more speed but better handling and stopping as well. Great to go fast in a straight line but feeling what it can do through the twisties is a great rush as well.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
