Hey wagon lovers!!

Got a quick couple of questions! Just spend couple grand on me wagon getting her looking nice and running a bit faster! So mods I have done are pod, front mount, 3" dump with no cat on varex muffler control (I know pretty extreme) but sounds intense. Just wondering what boost I should be running through it? Or is standard high enough already! Why power figures should I be looking at pulling feels like around 200awkw?

What other good and sensible mods can I do to achieve a little more power, not to crazy as it is daily driven :) already finished interior with full splits, subs, tv in it and jvc DVD player reverse camera etc.... Open to ideas guys :)

What power should I be making?

What boost should I run? (M35 250t)?

What other mods can I make?

P.s not looking at making it a track weapon either :) lol

With a high flow panel filter, dump and exhaust, I was making 166kW atw. Pod filter won't make much difference on standard ECU and suction pipe, so you'd be about there. Not sure if the intercooler will make any difference in these?

After I did all that, I was also making 15PSI. If yours is a 250t RS Four (which is what I've got), I think you're at 12PSI stock, and if you've got a decent dump and exhaust you'd probably be making 14-15PSI.

I'm leaving mine at 15 until I'm ready to upgrade the turbo. Scotty has run his on a standard turbo at 20PSI.

There are a lot of other mods you can make, depends on what you want to do, what you want out of the car, and how much money you've got. Do a search and you'll find a lot of info.

What will stop you initially is the stock ecu, we are still searching for a suitable way to adjust it and have to make do with the Emanage Ultimate at the moment. It will allow you to clamp the AFM voltage to get around the airflow cut and change mixtures, timing and injector sizes. Without this you will be limited to around the power Ryan is at.

The stock turbo will do 180kw on stock boost and perhaps 200kw at 20psi but may not last long with the ceramic rear wheel. I ran mine up to 226kw on eflex.

just look at peoples signature there u'll usually find the mods they have done :)

here's my list: Power Duct and BMC Airfilter, Scotty's Dump Pipe, Fully Custom 3" Stainless Steel Xforce Exhaust, Phenolic Intake Spacer, BC Coilovers, Transgo Shift Kit, B&M Transcooler, HDi Intercooler and sittiing on some 20" Advanti Desires.

basially im getting about 15-16PSI as low as 2500rpm at a guess i would have thought power was around 160KwAW so its good to see BigKev's stats as it makes me think i might be closer to 170KW :D

here's a list i stole off Jetwreck (craig) a while ago................

NismoECU Piggybacked with an E-manage Ultimate - Tuned to run BP98 - Currently safetuned to 15-16 PSI at 268AWKW's - Capable of more this is a very safe tune!

      Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...

      Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents

      I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
