Would probably wanna go a bigger set of turbos as well depending on what power your chasing

700cc injectors will tale u up to around the 360-400rwkw mark depending on who tunes it

Some people like to throw in some mild cams as well though some would say stock are fine

Probs want at least 3 1/2 inch exhaust as well

Thanks for the advise guys. From what people are saying, I might just leave the standard injectors and AFM's and get it tuned at 16-19psi. And just see what I get. The injectors have been Sonic cleaned, flowed & tested with new caps, so they would atleast be in good healthy condition. And the AFM's have been properly cleaned aswell.

Yep, good plan. If the injectors hadnt already been cleaned then i'd suggest replace them and dont bother with the FPR. When you do upgrade the injectors you wont need the FPR anymore, but since you're pushing the stockers to their limit, it will be useful.

Re: cam gears, sounds like you can include them now since the injectors and afms are out of the picture :thumbsup: They're not essential of course, but if you were to add them later you'll need to pay for another tune.

EDIT: If you have N1 cams, the cam gears will be less useful.

get bigger injectors incase you want to increase your power down the track, saves you doing it again.

Cam gears, waste of time as a lot of tuners dont bother playing with it. Just put in a set of Tomei Type B Poncams 260/260 9.15mm lift. :)

300awkwkw easy peasy

I'm not even sure what the FPR even does lol. Just heard the Nismo one is a good upgrade. So your saying with standard injectors, its not necessary for a FPR?

Yea still deceding. I wanted to see how these standard injectors go, since they've been all cleaned & reflowed. and I'm after 300rwkw. wont want to keep chasing more.

Yea I heard Cam gears are a bit overkill, unless your getting serious about your car. But each to their own.

Re: FPR - no, other way around. The FPR can be used to raise the pressure in the fuel rail, so the injectors flow a bit more. Its a hack, but if you only need a little more flow, its economical. If you getting bigger injectors there's no need for the extra flow from bumping up the pressure, as they will have enough flow already.

On RB26s many people have had good results using adjustable cam gears. The argument to avoid them because the tuner may not touch them, should be an arguement to get a better tuner, rather than to avoid the gears! For Cost/benefit, most setups will find cam gears a far better alternative than aftermarket cams. Anyways, they're certainly not required.

Cams gears on a RB26 are the best value modification short of upping the boost, which is free.

Cam gears for sure, tuners that don't touch em are I lazy to pull the cover and adjust em. I no my tuner would pull the covers off and change em, because he no's he will get a better result by doing it. I've got a FPR on my car, rail pressure bumped up alil bit, and I make 312 kw easy, factory afms, and injectors. Don't listen to all this bullshit about changing injectors now, it won't make any diffrence.

If u are going for more power, than change the injectors, your Gunna have to get it retuned to make the more power anyway, don't waste ya money.

Get it tuned as it is. Put some cam gears on and be done with it. It will take u a lil while to get over the 300kw

Thanks Deano, Im not after more than really 300rwkw, so I like the what you said. Power FC, Boost control kit, Nismo fuel pump, Nismo FPR, cam gears, and a tune on 16-18psi. See how I go hitting 300rwkw!! :)

Don't really need the fuel pump either mate lol

It is good insurance though

Really? that saves me $500, I can always drop one in later, if I find it's not flowing enough after the tune. So all I need is the Power FC, boost kit, Fuel Pressure Regulator, cam gears. and im set. Awsome!

Hopefully on my freshly run in N1 spec motor with the N1 turbo's i'll get close to my 300rwkw on 17 psi or so.

Appreciate all in the input guys.

Stock pump is fine for your power levels, still has a fair bit in it

Also buy your parts from rhdjapan... Heaps cheaper ;) I paid 350ish for my nismo pump and 660 for my sard 800cc injectors

Hi guys, just a quick update, and just need some advise before I go spend more money lol... A background on the car.

I bought the car with a fully rebuilt motor to N1 specs. Has 2000km on it. The turbo's are the R32 GTR ones that have been profesionally stripped out, rebuilt with Steel wheels & internals to all N1 specs. So I guess they are New N1 turbo's. Car just has a 3'' from the turbo's, de-cat pipe and then 3.5'' to the back. HKS Pods. My power goal is 300rwkw, idealy 300-320rwkw but no more. That's enough for me on a street only car. Iv'e just gone out and bought all this brand new:

Apexi power FC & Hand controller

Apexi boost control kit

Nismo fuel pump

HKS Cam gears & HKS belt

**In the process of getting Nismo 600cc's or Sard 700cc's**

My main question is, will these parts with 16-19psi on my motor; get me 300rwkw or do I need to upgrade the AFM's aswell?? I was looking into buying the Nismo AFM's, but thats another $900. Am I better to keep that money or go out and buy them now. Keeping in mind my goal is 300-320rwkw and won't be looking for more power in the future. Ive already spent a heep on money on those other bits, just want to know if I need to get these AFM's aswell for my goal.

Much appreciate your input guys.

Cheers

You will not need afms's youll make 300 with the factory ones.

Save your money for later

OP, your rebuild N1 turbos will be old R32/33 tech, so they wont spool as well as R34 N1's.

I'd also swap out the decat for a 3.5in metal matrix cat. It will be far better for the environment, the colour/cleanliness of your rear bar, and your wallet if you get caught ;)

Yea I realize there just rebuilt R32 turbo's. Im not sure apart from rebuilding it with steel internals, if they high flowed or put other's housing's in it. I'll have to find out. But I think they did it all properly as they specialize in rebuilding and high flowing turbo's. But I can't afford a new set of turbo's and these should be fine for 300rwkw.

Yea the cat is a good idea too. Thanks

Well im glad I don't need to fork out more money for AFM's if my stock ones will flow 300rwkw. They have been cleaned aswell if that helps.

You must change the fuel pump.

It is cheap insurance really, everything else you keep talking about isn't required - but the fuel pump definitely is. It is just a ridiculous gamble for a $400 part.

If you find out it's now flowing enough 5 months later, when the engine pings and destroys itself - you'll wish you'd changed it.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
