Yeah. That import site says they don't do RHD -> LHD conversions... You need to go to another place for that.

What does an aussie compliance include?

- Child restraints

- New filters / fluids

- New tyres

- Brake pad check and replace if necessary

- New Seatbelts

- The compliance plate

Anything else?

Given that tyres aren't included in the cost, I can't see why this costs so much. I imagine it would be fairly similar in the US, with maybe a MPH speedo conversion (even though my first car here had a MPH readout instead of KPH).

They argue it out here. Heard there are a lot of bumper safety requirements plus the emissions test. Supposedly it's one of the only vehicles you don't have to convert to RHD. It would be weird shifting with my left hand, but oh I'm sure I could handle it.

getting back on topic... I'm sorry to offend you Chris, but that product is just as good as the cyclonic fan that you chuck in your CAI pipe. lol its more of a hinderance than a benefit.

The dyno graphs you've got show a 3kw increase across the board. I know you guys don't claim any power increase, but theoretically speaking a responsiveness increase means a linear variation in the torque AND/OR the power curves. On your dyno chart both curves are exactly the same, one is simply higher than the other by a constant value... This means that your product hasn't increased responsiveness, its simply added 3 kw of power across the board, and likewise for torque.

Changing your oil regularly can do this. Why would any sane person want to spend US$300 (that's AU$600 lol I can turbo my car for that with a cheap ceramic turbo and a secondhand manifold and get maybe 10-20kw on an exponential rate) on the product when you can get a fuel regulator for much less which does a much better job of the same thing.

A lot of cars would have to have custom manfolds made for their car. This is just not an option for everyone. I don't know when the new dyno graphs will come in. There have been a lot of different problems in different areas. One test that we just did is an airflow graph. Check that out...

an HKS cold air kit (larger diameter steel mandrel bent piping, clamps and filters) for a typical car is US$170. The increase in airflow one of these would offer i reckon would be higher. Also just out of curiosity, why does it cost US$300 when the manufacturer sells em for US$139

"why does it cost US$300 when the manufacturer sells em for US$139" The manufacturer is Lee Walker. He sells them for $350. I don't know where $300 came up. Anyways the flow of this is upwards of 800 CFM. The chart is on the website now. It compares the flow at certain voltages. To find out how much a car requires use this formula as stated earlier (RPMs x engine displacement in cu. in)/3456. For reference at 6500 RPMs a 4.6 L motor requires about 522 CFM.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I used to have Walbro 255's when they were a pretty common update. (or were they 044? 040?) In any case I had a dirty tank. I thought the tank was good, but I would find the filter would clog in maybe ~50km of driving. If the issue persists, well, your fuel system or tank has crap in it that the pump is sucking up.

      Hi. Ok thanks for the info. I/we do not know what tune is on that Nistune ECU so it is why there is stock ECU and that Nistune is for later when the car is done. I have guy who tunes Nistune and other ECU so i will then take it to him to see and properly tune for the car   And for the update. On 99,9% it is bad fuel pump. Which is wierd cuz it is like 2 years old(brand new walbro 255) and that filter (also brand new) was dirty.  I was alwaya pumped premium(100) on very good petrol station so i dont know how is that possible...

      Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.

      So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here
