Airbox, pod, AFM, front mount, computer, high flow t28, boost controller, custom low mount manifold, full exhaust, screamer, BBS 17x11, semi slicks, fuel pump, fuel reg... what else can i bolt on to maximize the above?

What do you mean? Do you want more power? I didn't see any suspension mods, have you considered changing suspension setup to fully optimise your power delivery.....

Sparkplugs, injectors, valve springs, plenum, oil cooler, tranny cooler, SURGE TANK!!!!!!!

Guess it depends how far you want to go and what power your making, the suspension is a good idea to get a good response out of the power your making and depending on what power your making a surge could help sort out niggles in the process, valve springs will help with the surging aswell i guess.

Why don't you rebuild your engine now? :(

Im after more power.

Car is at a workshop right now, before i get it tuned i want to bolt on as much shit as i possibly can, then ill look at the suspension.

You, my friend, have got it backwards.

best to let him learn this for himself IC, he'll do is power mods no matter what we say... but he'll learn real fast when he takes it out cant put it to the road and smaller lesser powered cars drive right on by.

Believe me guys i know the importance of suspension, grip, tuning but for now my main aim is power from bolt ons.

I want to basically buy it from the shop and put it on myself then get it all tuned.

Reason being is i just want to look good on the dyno sheet for now :(... ill fix the rest up a little later down the track.

ya know looking at it i think you've got all the tack on bits done... for anything else (cams etc) you need to open things up. you could do a set of adjustable cam gears... or maybe a bigger turbo... but thats all that comes to mind... or a nice set of coil overs... you know while the cars in the shop and all.... get it over and done with.

or if u have a big budget.... rebuild ?? :(

Ive had a suggestion from my mate at the workshop, said to f**k the AFM off and go with a MAP sensor.

How much difference will that make?

how much do u wanna spend!!?

change your turbo and get it tuned properly by a competent tuner if you want more power.

even better, go to a decent tuner and ask them. they will tell you what needs to be done to it, better than any advice you'll get outta this thread or from a mate in a workshop who tells you you'll get more power changing from an afm to map...

ps - you're running semi slicks but havent thought hard about suspension?? :)

Semi slicks were second hand so i bought em for the sake of it lol :) I run RE050 tyres now, use the semis for the track which is rarely.

The car is just for street i dont want hard suspension because the hume highway, canterbury rd etc... are a f**ken pain in the ass !!!!

I did mention i have an aftermarket ECU (computer) in my first post, just didnt mention which one. And i rather not say as not to get laughed at :D

The wheels are actually 17x10.5, they dont hang out but they are basically in line with the wheel well and they miss the suspension by about 1cm, which is why i went wider instead of 18's. Ill show you pictures. Front wheels are 17x9, i forgot to mention that.

My mate at the workshop didnt say the MAP would make a huge difference but he did say its better than an AFM for later when i do start going breserk on tuning :(

Are there any other bolt ons other than throttle body, plenum, fuel rail, injectors and up the sparking package. Can i just buy all the parts, bolt em together then swap em into the car? Or is it a little more than that?

Thanks guys :P

The dyno operator can make anything look good on a sheet of paper if that's all you want........ :P

    • I've replaced the front brakes of my NA to 324 brembos and 350z calipers: i'm going for 225/40-18 up front and 245/35-18 in the back. I have Rays 7.5*19 ET35(225/35) in the front with 5mm spacers otherwise the calipers "lock up/ won't rotate". When i use the calculator i come up with 8*18 ET30 for 225/40...... but not sure i get problems with the calipers. Anyone riding around with 18 inch. that can confirm "that it'll fit"? In the back it's 7.5*9 ET30 (245/30) with the 5mm spacers, but there is no problem with the standard small brakes, so i want to take 8.5*18 ET25 (245/35).
    • Lol.. but then.. always come back to a JDM..
    • Glad to hear. If possible, get your tuner to check air's to make sure everything is still where it should be.
    • The problem with FB/Insta/Reddit etc comments relating to cars is simple. You get to ask a question once, and get one round of replies. For things that can actually be answered in a few lines of text, once, it's fine. After 6 hours, your original question is lost to the void. There are no follow ups, additional questions, anything. No project car is ever such a simple list of questions to ask. You need discussion.
    • Welcome.  Here's what I have noticed about forum vs FB..... FB; seems to be wallet racing, and the same few questions asked over and over. There *may* be some groups that are closer knit, but most have changed for the worse. SAU; unfortunately, no longer in its glory days. But....genuine people with similar interests. Not all about how much you spent and saying you dont have enough power. Sooooooo much knowledge available. Have personally seen people post up about literally topics I made myself, asking on FB like no one has done it before. Most has been done, and most of that is here.   If you ever feel like just general chatting theres the wasteland.  Other interests are also generally covered in other areas of the forum. Hope you enjoy hanging around. We would love to have you.   P.s. nice 32 😀
