No worries dude, I'm on arvos this week so maybe catchup on the weekend. I've got a cold ATM so don't wanna give it to anyone else.

My sticker mistake has been fixed thanks to Troy, cuttin is back and doing one more cost and wallah. She's new!

Got my car back yesterday... Crank Angle Sensor was rooted as well so got it upgraded and new tune. Dyno attached

Mods are

R33 GTST S2

Stock motor

FMIC

Spitfires

Nismo 740cc

Walbro fuel pump

Vipec ECU

GT3076 [Low mounted & Internally Gated]

3" Exhaust with Hi-Flow Cat

4" Intake pipe

Still seems a low figure. Do you guys agree?

That looks ok IMO, how much boost are you running? May not b a huge thing but if u dif the pump did u do the regulator aswell? I know Clint did both and he runs close beside a high flow.

Still a big improvement though!

I was going to go with a highmount setup, but the costs and cons of doing it isnt worth the money nor the power you make, which isnt a hell of a lot.

There are so many more options to go than that, but thats just me :P i would probably look at going forged if you want a beastly power with the 25, now thats worth some dosh :D

Bodo, lemme know if your free sometime before sunday this weekend? ill bug ya for the gear knob, otherwise tee it up for next weekend

Running 18psi.... Think I'll look into upgrading exhaust to 3.5" and save for highmount setup

Lot more money and not better result. is that 3076 in a .82 internally gated rear housing?

Having said that its an out come of a package instead of a turbocharger alone. As a bolton option it isn't unreasonable, and rarely any one makes their desired output in the first go. Either way, the most your are likely to see on paper with current setup is roughly 280rwkws. For trouble shooting I would drop the exhaust, try a different pod filter, and a different cooler. Some of the small alterations do make a big gain.

Ultimately a proper high mount manifold and external gate definitly helps with top end power.

Sometimes northing ever goes right does it!... driving car around last day or so and seems once i get a little happy with the right foot it starts making a strange sound in boost over 4000rpm and engine light flicks on and off.... Looks like it back to the workshop it goes on Monday. Hopefully all will be fixed for powercruise on Thursday

its likely to be an occurance of high level knock. engine light doesnt come up unless knock level goes beyound 60 means danger. the sound you heard is probably detonation. i would take it straight back to the tuner for a check up.

does the engine light blink on then off?

Yep, exactly what it does.

already booked in monday. hopefully it gets fixed

Welcome to the world of detonation unfortunately. Not bad power for the mods. If you do little changes, such as a larger exhaust or a different pod filter, it can alter the tune a little. A lot of people don't realise this. There would be nothing wrong with the size of the exhaust, there are plenty of cars producing big hp on 3" systems, so I wouldn't be worried about that. If you want to change pods, i'd do it now before it goes back, or give them it so they can fit it before they retune it.

It's got a new pod in the last few weeks, they just upgraded the CAS the other day and retuned it.... Maybe it's related to that...There's a thread in forced induction where someone is experiencing knock and believes its CAS related

+1 to the exhaust. To many people think the exhaust is the answer when it isnt

Don't mind me just lurking around, I'm a North Sider not rocking a beasty Skyline yet.... but hopefully real soon just wanted to have a look and see what we got on the North Side :D

    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
    • +1 for Jesse Streeter. Over the years I have got a bunch of stuff from him (usually wheels, but other parts like aftermarket braces and coolers). He was very good with shipping things to Australia. He may be able to send to other countries.
