^ only 166? Should have been much higher... the power of ECU for the SR, big gains

Power to weight also plays a part.

But meh, if he wants 200 for now, and then wants a bit more, plenty of room to move on ALL the stock parts.

Hell i made 250rwkw @ 12.5psi on the stock ECU without a drama

had stock on my gtst... then 185... then 265... soon to be be 300 with e85 when i get datalogit and a bloody e85 pump close by...

i'm now thinkin about a 33 gtr in around a year.... i just hope 350awkw will hold me :/

sellin your turbo kit to me yeah?

If its a GTR that u have.. why u wanna waste ur money on a "hi flow" cat???

the stock unit is extremely hi flow... gettin anything other than like a metal cat or magic cat is a waste of time.. :S

There's a really high chance he's got a compliance cat and not the Japanese GTR cat on it....(a quick check under the car will confirm :rofl:).

Yeah only 166; it was auto though so some drivetrain loss. I didnt have an ECU but did have aftermarket s/s turbo manifold.

Must say though that power to weight was great; I can really feel the big skyline required some revs to take off especially with the lightened flywheel.

Just to bring this old thread alive, for about 200-220awkw would anyone recommend a power fc d jetro over the standard power fc?

Also, is it worth getting a HKS, Apexi, etc. cat/exhaust vs some cheaper x force type brand?

From a little research I'm thinking an upgraded panel filter, down pipes, hi flow cat/metal cat, 3" exhaust and pfc djetro should be sufficent for now and should I be bitten by the bug for more power :( I don't want to have to upgrade stuff later. My theoretical maximum I would want to take it to is 300-330awkw (I know I know I say that now :))

1. no. regular pfc is fine. easier to install and much cheaper. just get that.

2. in my opinion yes. I like the japanese exhauts and think they are worth the money. they typically fit better, sound better and use better quality/grade material when compared to chinese made x-force etc. others will argue it makes no difference to performance. as for the cat, yes definitely get a good brand, metal substrate like a magic cat, or apexi, or sard or nismo cat. they will flow more.

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
