After alot of looking around and researching ive decided to take the plunge and burn some cash. Im just looking for some opinions about this list and wether i should add some more too it or if it looks like the right way to go. My car is already fitted with tein suspension and a turbo back exhaust.

Nismo 555cc injectors $860

greddy plenum $700

bosch 044 fuel pump $260

nismo adjustable fuel regulator $175

greddy m-spec cooler $630

hks ssqv BOV $300

air filter $100

Turbosmart External Wastegate $499

apexi pfc $1,500

z32afm $200

garrett gt30r $1,900

custom high mount manifold ??????

custom piping(cooler, intake) ?????

total $7124

Also Do these prices look right and how much would i be looking at for the custom parts. And what should i be looking at next?

Cheers Tim

imo dont get the greddy plenum and in turn that will alleviate needing cooler piping. just buy a cooler kit with piping and get an adj cam gear installed. and the adj fpr may not be needed either. set aside a few $$$ for tuning.

other than that it looks like a good list.

Dont forget if you go a greddy plenum factor in a different throttle body or a greddy adaptor plate for the stock throttle body. As said above go a Tomei/Nismo pump and ditch the bosch pump and the fuel pressure regulator. The Tomei/Nismo pump is very easy to install and you can't really mess it up like you can installing a bosch pump. Not saying they are bad pumps, just for the extra bit of money its better to go the Tomei/Nismo.

very nice man. i have pretty much same setup. only things i can really reccommend is getting a surge tank fitted.

also it might be an idea to purchase a cheapie engine that has shit itself, so u can fit this shit to it, and still drive your car. and while the engine is out u can fit forgies and shit. for full machining and install i was quoted at $6k. which aint too bad.

thats just a thought if u are chasing a fair bit of power. i bring it up because im heading down that road now :banana:

Thanks for the imput i've had another look around and im thinking that the tomei fp might be the way to go as there seems to be alot more work putting the bosch in. What sort of a clutch should i be looking at installing if do end up running this setup and is there anything else that i should consider doing before i go through with this.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
