is an adjustable FPR and larger fuel rail necessary? stock fuel pump?

we dont recommend products unless completely necessary.

For around the same price as SARD 700cc injectors we got the rail, injectors and reg for. The injectors we now use are 750cc Siemens items and have 14mm tops and will not fit the STD rail...they wont even fit a Jap aftermarket rail. His Nismo FPR he already had fitted will not bolt to the Hypertune billet fuel rail so the Turbosmart reg was fitted.

So yes the FPR and fuel rail were both required.

He can now sell his almost new Nismo FPR and be well in front...any one interested in purchasing this can PM Bakes. He also has a set of R34 GTR turbo's and STD injectors in excellent condition that he is looking to offload. :)

He has a Nismo fuel pump already installed.

Bakes is the turbo hard piping something you had already or was it considered a neccessary mod? I'm considering something similar for mine. Is it locally made or Jap?

Cheers

Thanks for the lead Paul. Are they neccessary? Scott would prefer me to get rid of my stockers on the 26/30 as he thinks they might be restirctive, but I've not heard evidence of that for engines below 350rwkw.

Bakes can you please post a pic of the whole turbo side of the engine with the piping installed.

Cheers

Car is tuned and running sweet, however on the dyno we couldnt get it to make over ~240AWKW at 1.2 bar (17PSi)

We worked out that the stock Nissan Cat between my HKS front pipe and rear section must have been restricting way too much air flow.

The cat got KO'd today. The car feels good and the new turbos pull to all the way to red line.

Ill try to take some pictures of the new catch can, etc tomorrow If I get 5 minutes of spare time to firsty clean/wash the car/engine bay.

Will have to head back to the dyno with Guilt Toy some time in the next couple of weeks and see what it pulls now. Might even crank the boost up to 19PSi or so.

so @ what RPM do they hit 1bar in 4th?

why not fit a metalcat?

Dunno mate, will have to check. Will definately have to go back to the dyno. Car should put out >300AWKW with my mods easily at 17-19PSi

Will have to see what effect the cat mod had. If that hasnt helped to free up a bucket load of power, I dont know what the problem could be.

I wouldve thought you could pull 240rwkw with standard turbos and supporting mods, dont know if youve mentioned what power your car was running before this series of mods.

Good luck with the re tune. I have a vested interest in this, was tossing up which turbos as well.

^^ Yeah, I did pull 240 with my standard turbos with stock injectors with just a boost controller.

Car should be making well over 300AWKW now. I cant tell on the street, maybe the problem is somewhere else?? If it is I dont know what??

Have to get back to the dyno and see if the cat has helped free up the power.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By sonicii · Posted

      How much have you lowered?  I had 350Z springs in the rear and was able to pull the camber into factory spec with the factory arms on the rear, obviously the front ran negative camber as it isn't adjustable, but rotating the wheels regularly evened out the wear.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Either the installer needs to come back, you need an auto electrician, or you need to learn automotive electricals yourself.   First step Id look at is where that big thing came out of, is there still things unplugged at that location? Maybe they just forgot to put a relay in or something?

      Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.

      gauge needle removal

      I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want.

      R33 GTST Axles

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.
