1 - exhaust

2 - steel intake pipe (no point in having power when the stock one sucks closed)

3 - coil packs (standard ones tend to fail = crappy power delivery)

4 - front mount

5 - vipec ecu (which has a built-in boost controller so its a 2 in 1 mod) with a tune

the reason why i didnt put a pod is because the standard airbox does a good enough job for that power level.

5 is a shit number though.

1) bigger turbo - depending on the power you want, a bigger turbo simply = more power. GT3076r (max 550hp) is the best for a stock engine!

2) better exhaust - on a skyline, the factory exhaust is restrictive, nets you easy power.

3) boost controller - more boost + more power, but you need one of these VVVV at the same time, to make the most of it (see no.4)

4) tuning - nistune or power FC do well on skylines, an important mod if you've got more things to do later on.

5) intercooler - lowers intake temps, colder = denser = more oxygen = more power.

(those 5 things all have to be done together though, you can't do either of those without the other. You can, but this is the best way to do it.

i speak the truth.

you sure do. steel intake pipe is a must for ~240rwkw and over, but with 5 mods only (which is admittedly a silly arbitrary limit) i doubt he would get to that power level safely.

5 mods i would do:

-full exhaust

-FMIC

-ECU tune (with inbuilt boost control)

-coilovers

-wheels and tyres

1. 22 inch Chromies

2. Vinyl graphics, preferably with nismo logos, trust stickers and GTR badging

3. 4inch exhaust with big ass Canon and no mid mufflers,no Cat and loud as F%$k screamer pipe

5. Altessa tailights

If I could include a 6th, it would be a Vent to Atmo Bov, spring tightened to allow for hektic flutterz on low boost

    • 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 🍻   
    • 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
