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....

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • 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.
