hey, pretty new here and n/a 33 owner just a couple of quick questions

i no there is all this exhaust extractors etc stuff but in a couple of topics ive seen things like camshafts and ecu's

but ive curious as to where to buy bigger cam or something and a blitz ecu????

im all about modding my 33 as its stock except for exhaust and extractors.

ive come up with a couple of things i wanna do to it but not sure if there worth the power gain for the money (btw im on my p's)

*bigger throttle body

*bigger camshafts/valves/springs etc (heard that u can use rb20 gtst cams but not sure)

*some sort of intake upgrade

if you could even fill me in on what some prices could be would help cheers

in the bit that has your user name and amount of posts etc it says that you have a R34 N/A but you are saying you have a R33 N/A.....which one is it????

My first (well second really) question to you is : what are you wanting to achieve with your car?

Why do you want a Blitz ECU? Why not go with a GReddy Emanage, or even a Apexi Power FC???

Generally speaking, if you want bigger cams, its always a good idea to get head work done aswell so you get the most out of having the bigger cams, then you may have to consider about upgrading your fuel injectors too.

You shouldnt have to worry too much about getting an overly stupid sized bigger throttle body, i would recommend talking to your tuner and seeing what they recommend.

In regards with the intake setup, generally you can just get a pod filter, and have a cold air intake set up to go to the pod.

Also you will find that you will not be able to use RB20 cams in a RB25 engine.

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
