You may know I recently got an auto 25G, which is normally aspirated. Now I want to eventually turbo it. Over the years I have acquired various bits. I have a turbo, manifold, dump and exhaust, plenum and intercooler. I will get an auto ecu, hopefully, from Rodney.

My WTB list is now a fuel pump, rail and injectors from a stock S1 RS4. I am not sure about the loom. I may need a turbo?

one. I know Nissan are odd. I am fitting an electric tailgate closer to the 25G and its tailgate loom, the S1 loom and the S2 loom are all different. Hirohito's revenge. LOL :)

So if anyone out there has what I need, please PM me.

Also I have read the SAU Skyline thread on conversion but if anyone has any advice for me, like, "don't do it Hugh", I will be truly thankful.

So much for "Mid Life Crisis"

You will need an AFM, stock or GTR bov and some kind of boost solenoid or boost controller.

ATM I am running the simple manual boost controller on the RS4. I would probably go the same way.

you probably wont need an AFM Hugh, on all other RB powered cars non-turbo and turbo use the same part, so i'd say the non turbo stagea's will be the same.

Thanks for that. Saved some cash.

What about compression ratio/head differences/valves? Guess you'll just need to tune with less timing?

R33 guys dont worry about it as long as boost is kept low. I will be using a simple manual boost controller set at 6 psi

    • 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 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
