How much and where from matty? Ive been looking at the whole kit lately, hopefully it might resolve the choo-choo turbo shuffle the -5s have

Kudos Motorsport pete. The suction kit was a tad over 1300 freighted from qld. Hard pipe kit installed last week was 650.

Somehow I dont think its the boost flutter you have to worry about pete (stock wastegates ftw) :whistling: You still attending the dyno day? I can't wait to hear your 33 at full noise in the shed :D

Yeah I'll be there don't you worry.

Does that suction kit fit your stock afms or only z32s?

Aaah should've mentioned that... I got the last kit from kudos that is compatible with stock afms. The rest are Z32 jobbies.. I'm gonna cheat and use nismo items..

It might pay to have a bit of a google and find out which brand you prefer the look of mate, some people prefer the HKS kit, good luck finding one in oz though!

Only problem is now my inlet plenum would look much better chromed and polished, looks like my stealth engine bay approach is dead :whistling:

Anybody know the best place to buy a Nistune for series 2 rb25 r33? An do you need to supply your own ecu or does it come complete to bolt in?

I didn't think these were supported, so I checked their website (http://nistune.com/equipment-products-type2.php):

• ECR33 Skyline (RB25DET)*1

*1 ECR33 RB25DET Skyline can use HCR32DET ECU (no VCT) or Z32 VG30DETT ECU (internal modifications required)

So yeah - R32 ECU if you don't want VCT, or Z32 ECU if you do.

Yeah nismo afms is what I'm running too hence why I mention it. I think I'll probably just import one when the time comes. It's good to know it works with the stock size ones though, I couldn't find any info about it on trusts website.

Sorry pistol I may not have explained that properly. The greddy kit comes in two variations: standard afm and z32 afm compatible. I managed to snag the last one on kudos' shelves that retain stock items.

That way I can run nismo afm's later on if need be. try www.rhdjapan.com .... never fails :)

So you bought two separate kits, the intake and the I/C piping? Thought they came in one kit?

Yep seperate kits. The "Hard Pipe Kit" replaces the factory rubber i/c piping. The "Suction Kit" replaces the factory intake piping and airbox. A smidge under 2k sent to my door..

      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.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
