I know a few of you have had similar work done to your cars, need some approximate labour costs for the following work.

-Cooler + Piping Fitting

HARD TO SAY AS IT DEPENDS HOW MUCH OF METAL NEED TO BE CUT FROM THE FRONT BAR.

-AVCR Install

A BRAINEACK LIKE YOUR SELF COULD INSTALL THIS YOURSELF. TUNE WILL TAKE ABOUT 1HR MAX WITH STOCK TURBO

-POWER FC Install + Tune.

PFC AGAIN A BRAINEACK LIKE YOURSELF CAN INSTALL THIS YOURSELF, AS IT TAKE ABOUT 5 MINS. TUNE WILL TAKE ABOUT 1HR WITH STOCK STUFF.

-A/M Turbo Install (straight fit)

2-3 HRS IF U NEED TO MAKE A NEW DUMP PIPE ETC

Just some approx prices would be excellent.

MOST OF THE $$ DEPENDS ON WHO AND HOW WELL YOU KNOW THE PERSON DOING THE JOB.

Thatnks Guys... [/b]

matt - i think its time you got your hands dirty..

Also depends on your front bar.. and what piping kit you get, and what intercooler you get, and whether your support bar is cut already. My HKS kit just fits on with the 400R bar and my old GTR bar, no need to cut. Angle grinders are cheap though :D

dj_l3thal installed his trust kit the other week.. his car is still running ;)

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
