Hi guys,

I just wanted to get some ideas on different chips for r32 gts-t's.

I am most likely going to get a dr drift one done in a month or so and I just wanted to hear from anyone if they noticed much of a difference in the overall running of the car.

At the moment I have 145rwkw's on 13psi, i got a cooler, xaust, pod, 044 pump...

With the new chip am i likely to gain any kw's?

What chip are out there to get and wat would be best?

thanks

Mark

Hi Mark, you local Chiptorque or Fueltronics dealer should be able to tune your car in real time and burn the chip especially for your mods. Off the shelf chip is never as good, because all cars are different.

SydneyKid: Excuse my ignorance, but when you say they'll "burn the chip"... do you mean they'll make a custom chip for your particular car (or atleast have the settings custom made for your car)?

Also: would you say it would be a wise idead to do mods like FMIC, POD, Zorst and any other little bits BEFORE getting this done? Or are they fully reprogrammable and it really doesn't matter? (obviously it'd be cheaper to tune the car once rather than 5 times...)...

How much would i be looking at for this? how much gains?... (i'm guessing the gains would simply be in having a better a/f ration etc?)...

kool... i really wouldn't have a clue what teh right a/f ratio is... just that the guy on the dyno day said i should have mine leveled off to about 11.6.... so yeah, that's all i was goin off... how much of that gain was in the chip and how much was in the extra boost do you think?...

160kw at the wheels just from a retune and remap?!?!?! that's an awesome gain (30rwkw)...  Or does that include FMIC, POD and Zorst?....

yeah basic stage 1 upgrade, good fmic, pod?, full 3" system remap for ecu and a good tuner!!

      Might import a stagea

      By iamhe77 · Posted

      Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.

      Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.

      Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Duncan · Posted

      OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
