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

    • 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. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
