hi denham,

mine did 154rwkw with just 3" full exhaust only @ 11psi.

auto ECU was the prob, it dips the power at the shift point, thinking it's still an auto, so I'm looking for a stock manual ECU as powerFC is still too dear right now...

they have to machine the flywheel. .

its a pretty expensive upgrade

what about the gearbox?  does more power makes the gearbox wear out faster?  

does a better clutch reduce the wear of the gearbox?

Dont worry too much about the drive line on an R33 skyline gtst. They are pretty tough. R32 arent quite so robust though (gearbox)

If something on the driveline goes due to extra hp, and you upgrade it to handle the increased power - that extra power will then look for the next weakest link until it gets to the ground. More of a problem for 4WD because it is easier to light up 2 wheels instead of 4 - so more strain on the driveline.

If you are really worried, get shit tyres with no grip:p ...hehe cracked my self up

    • 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?
