Hey all,

I posted a topic on here a while ago asking advice on what kind of mods i should get for my r33. My car already has an Apex 3 inch exhaust, blitz FMIC and high pressure fuel pump. After a lot of deliberation, ive come to this list, written in order.

1. K & N panel filter

2. Apexi Powerfc (with or without Handset?? advice??)

3. Bigger Injectors (im guessing around the 500cc mark?? or 740cc?? advice again??)

4. Then from that, id say camshafts??

5. Bigger Turbo

Im aiming at around 200 rwkw (at least) on stock internals. This car is also going to be a daily driver so i dont really want to dial up the boost much if at all. I basically want to get as much power as i can safely out of the stock internals.

Is there anything i have missed out in this list?? And finally, how much would this list cost me roughly all up?? including a proper tune and labour to install etc???

I know these are pretty novice questions, but any help would be much appreciated!!!

1. Filter not too expensive about $80 i think

2. Power FC. If you can find one, buy it. They are around $1K

3. Bigger injectors are good, 550cc would be the mark. You wouldn't have to go to 740 for 200kw. Not sure on price

4. Cam shafts, good idea, pretty expensive tho

5. Again, expensive. Look at some high flowed turbos. Slide has some (trader on sau)

    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
