hey guys

just wondering. i just purchased a set of garrett 2860 -7's for my 33gtr and i will be using the stock ecu til i save up some more money. Question is.: would it run and be ok with 12 psi of boost with the stock ecu?

also how would it go with these mods for power. just want to keep it simple and mild.

internally stock gtr.

pfc ( soon)

cooler is bigger than stock 100mm thick+ hiflowed metalic cat

3 and 1/4 cat back + jjr front pipes

apexi pods

also can the stock gtr ecu be remapped?

thanks pplz :D

Anth.

I am not exactly sure but i would say it would be ok to drove it only if you treat it nicely, no thrashing as the ecu might have a fit. It probably wont run very well. Id stick with the pfc i know you can remap the gtst so i am sure you could do it to the gtr.

Try ringing a workshop if your not sure.

It can be remapped, but I believe it's a good idea to wait until you get the power FC anyway. That way you only need 1 retune. I mean, unless you're really nervous about one of your ceramic turbos... just wait IMO. Occasionally they get sold on here for 600-$1,000 sometimes with a commander etc. Keep an eye out.

Definitely go power fc; at least you will have a factory ECU spare for EPA

1500-1900 will get you the fc + handcontroller + tune

plus you can always add mods and have a quick dyno tune to get them to run optimally

it'll run fine.. -7s r like N1 turbos anyway

the comp will be fine.. im running -10s with my stock comp.. but only on 7psi lol but still!

and it runs it with 272deg cams in n out and plenty of other work... sure its been remapped b4 to run bigger turbos in japan, but they werent overly massive... just under 300kw on pretty much 16psi...

The stock comp remap allows u to stay legal somewhat... u could always argue its stock :P

yer stock fuel pump should be fine.. im still running the stock fuel pump n injectors.. although @ near 300awkw.. they were startin to run real lean... so im gonna need new injectors or atleast a nice hike in fuel pressure...

    • Went to a drift practice day at a local circuit (held on the reserve parking area behind the grandstand) for the first time in about 15 years. Some kei cars were drifting as well, a not so surprising Suzuki Carry truck, and two 1st gen Daihatsu Copens that were converted to rear wheel drive(!) using Daihatsu Boon X4 transfer case, prop shaft and rear diff, obviously omitting the front driveshafts. They looked really fun to slide. I heard that they cost "about half" as much as a Nissan Silvia etc to run.  On the track 'Tech M' a local BMW tuning garage had a customer track day. Mainly recent models but there was one E36 which looked ancient among all the current models. It was cool watching the drifting and then turning around and seeing random people thrashing their M3/4s  central-circuit-drift-practice-2025-05-18-long-yt.mp4
    • I prefer it with those wheels (sacrilege?) 😋 Here's a photo of a fully original one for reference. The price is $350K....
    • I would like to keep it around 15k but if I need more to make it reliable and not have to worry about the car breaking I can go more. It's my project car so I'm just trying g to figure out what needs to be in it i know basic things like turbo cams injectors I'm just unsure of the size and the specifics so I'm spending alot of time on Google and its mostly rb25 and rb26 not alot on neo
    • This. They would need some tricky maneouvering to keep the income out of the country (the US). Which isn't helpful if that's where you want the income to end up.
