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.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
