Hey guys,

Just thought we'd give you a look at what we plan to release later this month.

Our 1000hp R32 GT-R intank kit is in the final testing stages now.

It's completely made here in Australia of CNC billet aluminium.

Includes all fittings, relay, fuel pumps, filters, Gates submersible hose

Say goodbye to fuel odour in the cabin, hello to quiet operation and of course no one will even know you have it.

Simply bolt it in and off you go!

It will be priced at $1350

Also in the pipework we have the same kit to suit R33 GT-R, R34 GT-R, R33 GTS-T, S13, S14, S15, 2001 onwards WRX, FD RX-7

It will be exactly the same as factory, so ultimately for a circuit car you would still require a surge tank, but for the majority of big powered street cars, this will do the job and saves a lot of stuffing around.

for 1300 bucks it would want to do everything, I can see $300 worth of fuel pumps, the hose would cost 20 bucks and a bit of machine work.

I feel its over priced, when for 1300 bucks I could have 2 044 pumps (which would actually flow 1000hp worth of fuel), braided lines everywhere and a good surge tank.

Ps. not sayings its shit, its looks mint! but im not sure a single 5/16" fuel line to the rail and 2 walbros will support 1000hp

Its actually quite reasonably priced in my opinion. That part of my fuel system cost alot more than that, seeing how its all custom.

This is a straight bolt on solution with all the guess work taken out.

X2. Its neither an arse nor an elbow. Not suited to track work and way too pricey for what it is for a street car.

What he said, Im looking to upgrade fueling, but couldnt you add a surge tank in the mix, not many 1000hp street cars but lots of lower power cars that see the track/drags.

I may buy something like this if it could eliminate surge and supply ample fuel and still be all hidden away in a tank.

What he said. Looks like a nice, well engineered kit. But what market, BIGhp that doesnt get raced on low fuel as not o carry needless weight?!?!?! Sure you will still sell plenty as a well engineered fuel system saves a lot of labour costs

i am a week or so from doing a surge system , and in my opinion ( that's right mine) its too costly for what it is , i rekon with a few hours i could knock that up and add 2 bosch 040's and away u go.

and just for example .

surge tank with mounting brackets for 2 bosch 044's : $180 au devilered (at this price hardly worth making my own)

2 bosch 044's 200 bucks each

few ods and ends

+ this actually stops surge issues , i cant see how that system will

so well under 800 bucks u have a fuel system thats rated to well over 1000+ hp

not taking credit away it is a good idea, but i just don't think it would a big seller

c'mon Roy, 90% of big hp cars don't see the race track at all, 9% see it on the internet only. I guess 1% may visit a track once. 3 big hp GTRs in Aus regularly do track work.

so there is a market for this.

And you can be sure that billet fitting for the tank lid that seals properly costs a mint to produce. Looks excellent and much safer than the dodgy fittings most people use

On the positive side it looks well made..but does not address the fuel surge issues as already said & it is overpriced for what it is.

If the price was considerably lower it probably would be a fast selling item ..im sure people would overlook the surge side of things not being addressed if it

allowed them to supply the fuel demands needed at a reasonable price.

Exactly, if it were well under 1000 bucks It would sell like hotcakes, Hell I would have been asking about them for R33s if I still had mine.

It looks really good but like everyone else I'd be worried about the surging issues as my 33 is used for drift. May be interested once more details are released as was looking at going bigger pumps etc as i'm looking at changing to E85 and aiming for 400+rwkw.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
