Guys!

I've decided to spend 2k on my skyline... here is what I have...

RB25DET

Stock turbo,stock intercooler

Coilovers and 17" rims

standard series 1 bodykit

4" exhaust with blitz nur spec muffler

boost controller

air pod

normal ICE with a small enough subwoofer to provide decent 'doof doof'.

Any ideas on what I can do with the cash?

DIY vs shops? I am not mechanically sound but simple electricals I can handle with some instructions...

What do you want out of your car?

perhaps a tune would be nicely suited with your current mods.

If you are in sydney, you can get a remap done for little as $400.

Why not get a r34 cooler, or fmic? thats about 500.. thats 1k gone..

With the other 1k, do more suspension mods? Castor rods, tie rod ends, sway bars etc..

But the next step in more power will be costly!!

That is if you wanna go bigger turbo etc. You will need a budget of 5k for that.

Perhaps with the 2k, invest it into insurance :)

HEy guys

Thanks for the tips.... I might end up getting a e-manage /safc, tune and prolly spend the rest on replacing my crappy s1 rear spoiler to a s2. I suppose the 2gs is to get me started on the mods. Prolly the next step is to upgrade the turbo and intercooler system. Then again, its an everyday car.....Fuel economy is behind my mind but I gotta get the balance between street car and race car correct.... if u know what i mean....

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      boost source Size Garrett gt28 gen2

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
