Get an intercooler first - how much you want to spend? Starts from $400-$700+ depends on the brand and specs you want.

the t4 turbo wont be around for long a fair few ppl want it, should i bag the t4 then save for the intercooler? turbos are never 500...

How long have you had the car?:)......Be patient dude ..save some more money and then get some goodies and chuck them all at once.

You will feel the difference more if you do it that way. If you put an intercooler now, and thats it, you would feel bugger all difference and you are going to think that you just wasted your hard earn dollars. imho.

an intercooler is not a power gain

full exhaust from turbo back? or just cat back?

get a 2ndhand intercooler off ebay and do the pipe work and fitting yourself

look for a remapped r32 ecu off ebay

perhaps a bigger fuel pump and a fuel pressure regulator wouldnt be a bad thing

and a RB25 stock turbo

fir the turbo and intercooler and boost to 12psi, install the fuel pump, get the regulator setup on a dyno with the remapped ecu and you should have a decent gain.

i think i also need a few guages to monitor my engine a little more.. i only have speed tacho, rpm and stock boost gauge, which is 7psi, mines already at around 11... so i have no idea.. do u reccomend obtaining gauges to put into the car?

Get an RB25 turbo + Intercooler + fuel pump anymore more than 12psi will require ecu work like a SAFC or remap. If you really want a t4 turbo you will need a t3 flange to fit it

yeah that or you can just put on some hks, nismo, g reddy stickers and that'll add an extra 50kw or so! :)

2nd hand remapped ecu from ebay - $250 at most

intercooler ebay - $200

Nismo fuel pressure regulator - $150

bosch 040 fuel pump - $150

rb25 turbo - $200

around a grand I suppose, but it would give a decent power-up IMO

Dood, what are you doing??

$600???

Keep it in the bank and focus on paying rent & bills.

Anything major that you do will probably need a decent ecu to cope followed by a tune.

Tune alone about 1/2 grand..........save your money if thats all you got.

    • 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.
