yea thats what i thought and i can find a few bolt on ones off ebay for 400 but i really dont know the item and im unsure of the quality and reliability of it and how much to you think a hypergear fi-flow turbo would cost because im very keen to upgread and i wouldnt mind a nice 250kw or more but its my day to day car and not have the money to upgrade the injectors ecu afm and turbo at this point but if its almost the same price to hi-flow it i may aswell do that

also can i run a hiflowed turbo with stock injectors ecu and fuel put and afm and just run stock boost??

Or for a little bit more you can get an atr43 to suit 250kw or 300 depending on your goals. I've got my atr43 ss1 running 7psi so there isn't much reason you can't modify slowly, just be very careful about what you do in what order, I cracked a piston by taking too long to get it all tuned. But I did make 230kw with a cracked piston.

Im still pretty new on this site, let me answer this one lol

Option 1 - upgraded turbo = Tune, do u have a aftermarket ecu, if not ur up for about $5000+ (new turbo, ecu and tune)

How'd i do ?

You failed miserably unfortunately..

No way a new turbo, ecu + tune would cost this much.

Maybe if you went top of the line everything which he doesn't want to do.

Turbo = $900-1000

ECU = $600 - $1600

Tune = $500 - $800

Total = $3400 for something like

Power FC, 250-270kw hypergear turbo, tune

Total = $2000 for something like

Nistune ECU, Hypergear turbo 230kw + tune = 220kw max with stock injectors

I dont see that i did, $1500 isnt much. If i was to be taking the next step, id be spending a lil more than $1000 on a new turbo

The HG turbo needs to magic itself onto the car for it to only cost $800-1000.

Its the hidden extras, like intake pipes, exhaust mods, injectors, AFM's, oil/water lines, stud replacement etc that some turbos require that is a hidden cost to upgrading.

Buying the parts is the easy part.

Everything costs money unless you bolt a stock one on. Plus good turbos can be had from 750 (kando) then your usual mods same as hypergear. Also is there oil in the dump all turbos have some shaft play no matter how new.

Which HG turbo? A simple rebuild/hiflow yes other HG turbos no. Don't forget labour.

Getting back to the OP I am still not convinced his turbo has anything wrong with it since it still makes boost so the best thing is to correctly diagnose what is happening before buying any parts.

ps. my daily driver has had a whole lot more than $1k spent on turbos over the years...like most SAU'ers.

^ my simple turbo replacement turned into a 10k rebuild pretty quickly lol.

quick question im looking at a really cheap r34 turbo with no nosie and no shaft play and lie $150 mates rates :) i was just wondering how much shit can it handle because im going to go the road of hiflowing my r33 turbo

    • Here's the link: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6642/misc/G49?frame_no=WGNC34-137122 What you think about it? The same product i found on nengun: https://www.nengun.com/oem/parts/40567/MiPwn5qAMfCfmpxHNDnwn5q9MDAx8J-QiW9sZC1qcC0xMTAtRzQ5LS0wMDE/Floor+Carpet+%2F+Mat+2/0688339eba149c19 Bot i have spoken to 😅 ensured me, that mats are 100% original, oem product. I have my doubts. I also heard what you mentioned, that nengun often offers items that are actual not available... On the other hand mats i found on japanese yahoo or ebay are in poor condition and still quite expensive so i'd rather wait for some better offers. My location - Poland. We literaly don't have ANY market for used Stagea parts so need to search outside Europe.
    • You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not
    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
