Mods wise:

- EMS Computer

- Turbosmart Boost Controller

- Front Mount

- Forged Pistons

- Koni Suspension (I think?)

- Pod Filter haha

- 19" Rims

- Respray in Gold with Green Pearl (Aussie Aussie Aussie haha)

- Alarm System

on the way:

T3/T4 Turbo hehe

If anyone has any Mods they would like to advise me on that would be great! as im used to MITSUBISHI and DONT HAVE MUCH OF A CLUE ABOUT SKYLINES AS OF YET haha

Thanks guys

hey Elliott,

welcome to the forums mate,

im in western sydney too, AND 18 too!

hope to see you around at some events and meets...

if you browse through the sections of this forum, you'll gradually become accustomed to the jargon associated with modifying your car. mostly everyone's happy to help with most things :banana:

Cheers,

Shane

well that would make my skyline only put out 165RWKW. which is considerably low. spesh when a standard RB25DE (non turbo) puts out around 140 kW - 147 kW depending on VCT etc.

and the standard RB25DET puts out around 180ish or so KW at the rears (correct me if i'm wrong lol). So it cant be right.

bit off don't ya think?

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By HYBRID VL · Posted

      i looked at a HKS Exhaust for my 400R and the pricing was out of this world like to get it posted from the US is crazy. it was more then $2000 postage and i understand its a heavy item but thats just a cat back like $5000 for a cat back exhaust to my door imo is crazy. There was a  performance shop offering me a similar exhaust for $8k sure they just got it posted to and trying to make some extra cash though they said labor costs of installing but yer cat back and im paying $3k labor yerr nah. I remember i got a custom exhaust made for my TX3 back in the day from Hitech Mufflers on Parramatta Rd just wondering if i could get one these days for under $5k for my VR37?

      looking at buying an ECUtek dongle for my V37.

      By HYBRID VL · Posted

      i have been looking at this ECUtek tunes for my V37 and just wondering if i but it and put it in my ODB connector if i just remove it when the vehicle is off are all the tunes removed aswell ? like basically removing the dongle puts the car back into a standard state? i have never played with ODB connectors with tuning i have always had full ECU with hand controllers so this is all new to me.
