Hi guys,

I am in need of some sound advice from those that have already gone down the upgrade road...

I have a r33 1997 v spec gtr with;

power fc

Profec B elect boost

Custom hi flow cat and exhaust

Pods

I have just brought:

HKS Adjustable cam gears

Garrett -5 (n1 style)turbos

Trust front pipe

I need to know if it is vital to purchase injectors, fuel pump, fuel reg? Anything else i forgot? From what I can gather dumps will be ok at this setup and possibly pumps etc...

The car will get full install from powerplay - sydney, and then dyno tuned. Looking for more responsive car good power.

Any help appreciated.

Cheers

definitely get injectors, fuel pump and reg not THAT necessary as long as its a safe tune. But the question is how much power do you want?

And if i got adjustable cam gears i would definitely want to do a fuel pump and reg to get the most out of the car.

Thanks, Any particular type of injectors and pump? I am being told only nismo for both?

talk to your tuner before you go buying anything mate , if theyr'e any good they will be able to tell you what will be necessary :P . note: i've noticed that alot of people don't stop and think about the smaller servicable items on this site (i.e oxy sensor , fuel filter, temp sensor etc) , before you go trying to upgrade your engine have a think about the last time these were changed and whether it might be a good time to do so :P

640 or are they 660 cc nismos would do the job for stock bottom end safe power, fuel pimp definately, those turbos are good for more than you will want to safely throw down the stock motors throat but afms (if u did not go djet) would limit gains I think to 300rwkw,so may want to consider z32 or equiv.

I would also consider catch can and cam cover baffles.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
