well it all comes down to money. how much do you want to spend on your next upgrade?

have the cam gear(s?) been set-up on a dyno or are they just sitting at 0?

I would reccomend (providing it's in budget).

buy high flow filter for your airbox (or pods if you prefer that)

buy and fit boost controller and raise boost to 1bar

buy PFC

get PFC and cam gears tuned on the dyno

if you are going to run GT-RS you will need a lot of other gear to go with it and make it work well:

700cc injectors

high volume fuel pump

dump pipes

front pipes

intercooler would be a good idea (but not essential)

new air flow meters (either VG30s, or nismo)

new clutch (either heavy duty single, or multi-plate)

more tuning

cams

and to be honest I don't think GT-RS on a standard 2.6 RB26 will be a very good set-up as you will not be able to push them to their limit on a stock motor. far better to rebuild, and if you are rebuilding I would suggest a 2.8 kit would be wise to go with the GT-RSs.

a far better choice would be GT-SS or GT2530, but even still you will need most of that stuff above to get the most out of them.

what next mod do you think i should save up for in this list.

1. PFC.

2. Airpods.

3. turbos.

4. Cam shafts.

PowerFC hands down.

Airpods - pointless. The stock airbox with a decent panel filter works far better.

Turbos - Not much good without the ECU :closedeyes:

Cams - Same as above!

So ye, choice is easy from that list.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

      What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
