Hey Everyone

I been thinking for while of getting a FMIC, but now that ive starting looking into it theres alot of different sizes and core dimensions etc...

I have a series 1 GTS-T M-SPEC will the FMIC fit without much mods to the front bar?

Just wanted to know what other people have put on and dimensions please.. my Budget is about $2000 installed i dont want to blow my budget.

Im also getting the exhaust done dump pipe and high flow cat any recomendations on that would be great also!

Thanks!

You have to cut the bar for any decent sized fmic. I haven't done it myself but the workshop that installed the fmic did so without too many dramas. I don't think it's that hard.

Dump pipe and cat - get one of each from BATMBL! See the car parts trading forum.

I'm thinking of putting a GTR cooler on mine... I figure i only wanna run around 12-14PSI (GTR runs that) and it should virtually bolt straight on no worries...

Plus I only wanna take the car to a max of around 200RWKW (for the time being) so the GTR cooler should do the trick...

Dimensions i think are around 600x300x70 (but don't quote me on that. Piping work is easy, just take it an exhaust place and they'll get it done for you for around $300-$400.

Sounds like a GTR intercooler will do the trick!!! Thanks alot Guys now have to start find one for a good price.

What u reckon is a reasonable price? $500-700??????

If you don't want to cut the front bar yet still get good performance out of the IC use a Bar and plate.

Mine fits perfectly behind the front bar.

Its rated at its optimum of 580hp with a 1.5psi pressure drop.

From memory its got 60-63mm inlet/outlet 2.5", 600 x 300 x 90. I think.. :D

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
