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.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
