Was planning on getting a remap...

get the new Fuel pump and Boost controller first then remap?

if i get new injectors, fuel rail and FPR will i need another remap?

bigger turbo another remap?

is it best to wait till i have all mods on then map? or do i only need to map some mods?

cheers

if you want to save money then get the remap at the end of al your mods, DONT PUNCH THE F*** OUT OF YOUR CAR WITH MODS THAT ARE NOT TUNED FOR THE CAR

if you want to have maximum power through all the stages of your modding, and dont mind spending a s*** load of cash, then get re mapped whenever the hell you want.

yeah good advise from the boys above, buy all your bolt-ons first then book it into someone like Shaun at Boostworks who can bolt it all on and tune at the same time.

The diiference you'll feel with the car b4 and after will blow your mind.

Speak to Shaun about what sort of bolt-ons to buy as well if you're not sure.

well said sled thats my plan of attack anyway....and i think thats the best way and the difference you will feel after a shitload of mods going on at once would be amazing...can you imaginge going from 150-180 odd rwkw to something like 280rwkw would be nice

:P

Get it tuned at each stage, or put all bolt ons at once and tune it. Anything else is asking for trouble.

I'm going to take the Stagea out to Mallala for a benchmark time, then dynoed for a before-and-after comparison.

Then I'm fitting my intercooler kit, turbo etc etc and do it all again to see/feel the changes.

:)

if you have a safc you can do step by step tuning as you fit stuff

thats what Ive done for over 2yrs now

but Ive been hoarding my last lot of mods, ready for the remap at speed labs

going to arrange it soon.

thing is, after a remap, no point in adding extra stuff like larger turbo, 'cause the remap will be worthless

you can run a larger turbo, z32 afm, fpr, etc etc etc etc etc, on a safc, get good power and ok fuel economy.

Ive got larger injectors but wont put them in until remap time.

I was going to use a R34 GTT PowerFC but decided not to. for sale for $1200 firm. works a1

yeah that is the best feeling but can also be dangerous for someone young & inexperienced.

can you imagine going from a 13 or 14 sec car (which is pretty quick anyway) to a 10 or 11 sec car in a couple of days?! :blink:

thats what i was thinking for joel, i reckon you should get you pump and elec controller put in then get her remapped, it would be a while before you go bigger turbs, injectors. afm ect ect i think it would be better for you to go stage to stage, as even with these slight mods it will ne a dramatic change with the way the car drives

Um, that's pretty much what SLED said to do...

Thats why I said :blink:

You've been here 13 months and thats your 8th post? :laughing-smiley-014:

i think ill get fuel pump then map, by my turbo injectors etc. sit em in my room until i have more cash for another remap.

krishy you will need to buy a 2nd hand RB20 ecu to get remapped and hooked up to your car. Check the SAU classified thread, should only cost $100 or so.

thx for the input guys :D

i have been told that you cannot retune/ remap a r33 ecu so how should i go about getting mine done....any cheaper way of doing it apart from a PFC

You heard wrong. It can be done. Just costs 3 times as much as a standard remap. RB20 ECU can also be used. So can Z32 I believe... not 100% on that. Ring Jeff @ The Speed Lab, or Shaun @ Boostworx and get some advice from them. They'd know better than anyone and wont just try to get you to spend cash, actually tell you what your best option would be.

what coin for the fpr bitch tits? :domokun:

$180. Brand new. FPR alone here in AUS is that price. You get nissan adaptor with it ($50). Buy it now ya poof. I gots 3 sets of wheels to pay for LOL Then again Danny I might do you super special secret squirrel deals...

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
