Does a face lifted Series 1 count? ;)

Feeling alone? :D Welcome to my world 3 years ago lol

Don't think you will get the answer you are after mate, but at least there is a heap of info floating around for your engine and I am sure that there are a few of us here that are familiar with the VQ35de and the AWD drivetrain which is the same as the series 1

A HKS turbocharger or supercharger kit and the supporting mods is the answer to all your problems, Alex!

World Peace- nah, just twin turbos! And shhhh.... Don't tell anybody but I think "supercharger" is a dirty word around here :down:

I'm picking up really mixed messages about intakes from different places (whats new eh?) Agreed a Plenum spacer is a worthwhile addition, but I really want some good advice on the benefit of a CAI, pod or other set up before I jump in there. Options are:

1) get a high quality Panel filter in the stock airbox, and change the tube to a Z-Tube

2) get a kit that retains an airbox, but puts a pod in place, + a z tube or

3) a Nismo R tune kit

What are the recommendations, sometimes there is just TOO MANY choices!!!

If you are sticking with N/A.... go #3. It really is an awesome bit of kit :yes:

Or, you can buy the spare manifold off me, buy Andy's spare turbo and highflow it, fit an Emanage and youre away. :woot:

So you will make an intake pipe to go with it? Might need an intercooler with piping, BOV and stronger valve springs too

Scotty, I'm beginning to think you just want some competition on the VQ35 front! Sorry, but its going to stay NA for now. Might even get the most powerful NA Stagea in Aust! :happy: (and the only one who has bothered tuning it! :P )

    • 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 🍻
