Gday guys, just thought I would pick your brains for some ideas and opions.

First of all I have a r33 gtst, It has a fmic, 3 inch exhaust, exeedy hd clutch.

I have a z32 with a nistune board that is getting a base tune on it in about a week, so I can drive it to get tuned.

I also have a set of sard 550cc injectors to put in the old girl.(once the base tune is done.)

The turbo in it is stock and I wish to change it to something that with heat sheilds might not be picked by the cops.

Was thinking of a 3076 or maybe 3071? I dont want a cheap crappy turbo, was thinking of a garrett. (ideas please)

Now will i need to upgrade my fuel pump (intank), and what would you guys suggest?

Will I need to get a new fuel pressure regulator?

Any help and suggestions would be great thanks.

Think of a forum as a library...

when in a library you may ask where a book is if you cant find, but luckily forums (and the internet for that matter) have a search function (well even libraries have a search system as well), forums are also split into sub categories to help in finding information too...

if you cant find the info your after on the internet or this forum your simply doing it wrong...

part of working on cars in general is being able to research and learn yourself see this gathering of information as your first steps in learning about your car.

or you can hand over a credit card to a workshop and not have to learn or know a thing about your car, and not even know what was done to it...

even if other users give you an answer it may just be their opinion and may even be the wrong advice for your particular needs...

when all is said and done you need to get yourself a HKS2835 ProS running E85 with a bosch 040 fuel pump and 850cc injectors, lots of people will say the stock fuel reg is fine but its hard to fit speedflow hardware and stainless braided lines to it, so get an aeromotive or authentic sard fuel reg, tune and skid...

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
