hello all,

after i nice drive home from my gf 2night, and getting my ass wipe by a wrx and r33 i finally made the choice 2 start the chpt1 of modding in my car :(

so far i have

HKS Super Dragger Exhuast (no dump pipe)

Aftermarket Turbo (still unsure of wat it is)

AirFilter + CAI

Bleed Value

HKS SSQ BOV

Heavy Duty Clutch

Now for chpt 1: i would like to add some boost maybe 12 to 14psi at the moment it is running around stock .5bar :( so far my list to boost the car up to this lvl is

FMIC (hybird 300x700x100 i think is the size)

ECU (wolf3d) Or SAFC 2

Dump Pipe

now i am no pro and i very new to HPI and the turbo stuff so could any give me some tips on if they are good next mods ect ect?

My End goal is 500rwhp MAX (but like i said END GOAL) i would like to make between 270 and 320rwhp now

any tips would be nice, i would also like some tips of brakes, handing ect upgrades

thankyou mike :)

Handling aye...

I've heard great things about the Whiteline Handling Pack, which includes upgraded sway bars, a castor kit and a rear camber kit. Bilstein shocks got some positive reviews in the suspension & braking forum, so you might want to look into those too.

You should really try to find out what turbo it is before you boost it too high though.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
