The guys at cv performance recommend me saving for a vipertech ecu and 650cc injectors. told me not to get anything less than that.

a vipec is a better ECU no doubt, but if you are going for a highflowed turbo you aren't going to need anything more than a pfc / nistune

you will also need a z32 afm, 555cc injectors (minimum) aftermarket fuel pump, FMIC, better clutch etc etc

best search around here before you buy stuff.... have you already paid for the turbo?

the turbo you chose will influence everything else you need

damn :( the turbo is alread payed for and installed.

already have a fmic, exhaust, pod filter.

damn I thought the garret internals would put out decent power. I was going to upgrade to a bigger turbo in a couple of months though. just wanted something with a decent kick untill I go all out on a high mount kit.

what do you recommend?

depends on what you want to do with the car.

a highflow will get 300rwkw TOPS and that's pushing it. (i beleive hypergear have managed the 3 ton but generally highflows are 260-270rwkw

having said that have you driven a 3oorwkw R33? it's FAST

looking for more power than that out of a 2.5l will only lose response, and response where it's at (in my opinion)

i'd rather have a 250rwkw Rb25 than a 400rwkw RB25 anyday

your awesome man cheers. great great advice! I know where I stand now :)

nope never driven a 300kw r33 but I have driven a vl turbo 270kw on the weekend and it was scary fast. thing was spinning the wheels right up to 4th gear on boost. was hard as hell to control!

Hey man Im in a similiar situation too you, replaced my stock turbo as it was on the way out and the replacement now causes my stock AFM to max out so I need nistune and AFM too, I don't know where your located but I looked up a guy named toshi on the forums who can do a nistune for you for a fair bit cheaper then most places, pretty sure he's in Sydney maybe get in contact with him for your tuning? I plan too when I have the coin

I spent so much money rebuilding the damn thing now I'm hit up for another couple of g's :( it never ends

should be worth it though. I'f I get done I'll let you know how I go :)

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf

      Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.

      Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?

      R34 N/a And R34 Turbo (gtt) Transmission.. Uh, Problem.

      By albyz34gt · Posted

      @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man

      Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
