you'll need the z32 after you hit 300kw tho... or go for the more expensive nismo afm

speaking of z32s, wheres the cheapest place to get em from, with the plug?

-D

Granted the extra 15mm of the Z32 over the standard size Nismo body may make a difference but not as great as what you would expect cause they have similar resolution and the Nismo bolts straight on with no extra wiring......I'd be ditching the standard restrictive GTR piping if you have a few spare $$$ and go for some hard piping.

Also, PowerFC has a default select feature for the Z32 to get you started whereas manual imput is required for the Nismos.....not an issue unless you're tuning it yourself.

Suppose it boils down to price & personal preferance at the end of the day.

All good points Pete. I myself went the Nismo route, firstly I got them cheap, second, they are direct bolt up, no mods required and I don't like molesting looms and third, if you're really sneaky you can go through regency with them on. Z32's; no chance

Anyone got any ideas how to remove a Vspec decal from the boot lid without fking the paint?

Prepsol, or a thin nylon blade like we do at work (cut down ice cream containers work too)

Prepsol won't hurt 2-pac but will acrylic.......just don't use thinners, LOL :)

prepsol or wax and grease remover shouldn't have any affect on acrylic, but yeah thinners is a big no no.

yeah ive seen a few places with them for that much, but ive also seen a pair of z32's for the $300 mark ;\

nismo is probably worth the extra $300 tho

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
