Hi guys

I got my hands on a T4 (XTR) Turbo. ball bearing,high-flow etc. I managed to source it from a guy who literally forgot he had it. I came across it when we were moving stuff out of his garage and I bought it for peanuts.

I'm wondering what other components are vital to be installed prior/with having the T4 installed. My initial thoughts as per SAU is:

FMIC

Z32 AFM

Boost controller

Injectors

Fuel pump

ECU

Although I've heard other responses where they've advised FMIC, controller, and ECU should be sufficient until 'x' amount of power.

I'm not chasing massive power gains.. but the more I read this back to myself, the more I sound impatient. Lol.

Lol.. awesome response to my last post.

..anyway, just thought I would update my thread and post my pretty wheels.

19" Work TE37s. Fronts are 8.5", rears are 9.5" +22

The rears came with 275/35 rubber but was too wide and caused it to rub against the perch of the strut.. so I had to get 235/30. Although it may have been different if I had coilovers installed rather than the upgraded Juran branded stuff that's on there atm.

Btw, the 275/35's are for sale! Plenty of tread on them! http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/395678-fs-stockies-with-rubber-and-rubber/

lads, just a quick question..

I have a pod filter (airynx) on C34 (99, s2 neo) installed a FMIC, replaced coilpacks (splitfire) and upgraded to larger injectors.. at the moment its still driving a bit rough

would upgraded injectors call for a new tune?

Bigger injectors without a tune will make it run rich and more than likely foul the plugs causing a misfire.

I don't mean any disrespect but if you have done this maybe you should research things a bit more first before doing upgrades like this. Saves you any dramas.

I was told, via SAU, the injectors wouldn't cause an issue as the increase of CC's wasn't off the charts.. its no biggy. I can take them out and eliminate the items one by one. but from other threads, I thought I was going down a common path.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
