G'day all. I a R32 GTR and like most people I want to change a few things here and there, but I want significant power gain for the money that I'll be spending. Engine rebuilt a while ago and currently running 2560's 3 inch cat back compression standard and head work...

Before I throw the PFC in and get a tune done i want to know the following...

First things first, dump pipes and down pipes. Is it worth the headaches and money changing from stock to aftermarket? Will I notice a gain?

Z32 AFM's, I will want to up my boost, so should i just bite the bullet and upgrade from stock, I've seen the Z32 AFM's with adaptor plugs, will they do the job and hook straight up to stock piping? (I'm pretty lazy when it comes to making things work)

Last night and all this morning I've been looking at injector mods on SAU, and after reading a shat load of threads and comments i still have no clue where I should start. I'm not too keen on FPR and new fuel pumps, rails and blinging up my engine bay. Something decent and something bigger is all I need, anyone have any suggestions?

I've been keepin a eye on the oil catch can thread they seem like a decent i dear, ive alwayse wanted one so I'll have one of them soon too.

Any feed back would be appreciated!!

Cheers, JUSTIN.

First up.... Do a search everything has been covered before in depth.

1. Yes front pipes and dump pipes will be required for more power.

2. If you want to run z32 afm you need to change the intake piping aswell. If you don't want to then buy nismo items.

3. Buy big enough injectors to slot into the std fuel rail.

4. You don't want to buy a fuel pump.... Doesn't matter what size injectors you have if the fuel pump won't flow enough. Fuel pump is essential.

About Dan's point 2.

I have done 2 R32 GTRs now with Z32's and stock setup. I just redrilled holes in the stock airbox to mount and seal Z32's.

The stock intake rubber piping will stretch a bit to fit the Z32's as well.

Thats pretty cool info re the streching, valuable post in future with Z32s coming down in price lately.

Thanks,

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
