Hi all,

I'm starting to mod my 34, but I'm not sure where to start first.

I've got around $2k to start, and I'm thinking of either getting:

CES Racing twin dump pipe and full 3" system (40+ ATW kw gain I was told)

or

Trust PEII Cat back exhaust, intercooler and a HKS FCD.

Any advise would be great, thanks.

K

My opinion, others will see different:

I would start with the exhaust as it is one of the first important mods which will pave the way for future upgrades. Focus on the supporting mods before going too hard on the engine.

After this, opening up the intake with a performance panel filter or pod setup would be second.

Have a read of the Quick Ref Guide

Thanks for sending the link, much appreciated.

40+ KW at the wheels with an exhaust!!!!! Not for shit! :P

MAYBE an extra 15 - 20 rwkw.

Step 1- Straight through exhaust with dump pipe (Should be around the $1,300 mark for a good custom setup)

Step 2 - Pod filter (Should be about $60 with the flange which you can purchase from repco)

Step 3 - Front Mount Intercooler (about $900 for a decent one installed)

Step 4 - Manual boost controller (turbo tech) wind it up to about 10-11 PSI (At this stage, your car should not be running too rich or retarded) $30

At this stage you should have about 170 - 180 rwkw (About $2,300).

If you choose to get a power FC (which is over your budget) would be a wise move, should get you to a bit over 200 rwkw.

Also, don't forget to put a coke can in between you BOV and piping to give you the extra 120 rwkw of compression surge.

should be able to get a decent turbo back exhaust for under $1000 that will do the job nicely.

just jap stainless bell mouth dump/ front pipe: $199

x-force or catco 3" cat: $175

and you should be able to get a x-froce mild steel cat back for about $600 or less.

or i just found this. turbo back exhaust for $800 http://www.tweakit.net/shop/product_info.p...roducts_id=2283

    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks  
    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
