hey guys i am after some ideas on what i should do next.

the car is a r33 s2 manual.

mods so far

fmic

bosch fuel pump

splitfire coils packs

highflowed turbo

greddy profec b

full exhaust

i am after a little more go. (not after huge power).

most of the mods that were done to the car were done because of faulty parts at the time.

I do have a budget of 2k to spend.

daily driven car.

any ideas would be helpful, I have a bit of an idea but I just don't want to waste money on mods that are not worth it.

experiences would be helpful here..

thanks rob

Possibly some sort of ECU to make the most your current mods. Check the classified, there are a few power FC's floating around for a 33 or possibly a VIPEC (do they have a model for a GTST?) which is only say $500 up the road of your current budget installed and tuned. Would add a little if not a lot more go, which is what your after.

You need a tunable ecu. Your next logical power mods would be bigger injectors and a Z32 afm. If you get a Link or a Vipec you won't need the afm and can just get some bigger injectors when funds allow or a good buy comes along. Set your adjustable cam gear at 4deg retarded - that should do until you get it on a dyno when you have an ecu.

im pretty sure it dosnt matter if you get a manual or auto ecu the code is rewritten to suit your needs any way. Because your car is a series 2 thereare afew little issues we have found lately with the z32 ecu. One was fixed fairly easily the other is causing false knock to be detected making the car run on knock maps, hopefully the issue will be figured out soon

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
