Is something like this worthwhile?

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/GT35-GT3582R-Slide-Ind-Turbo-Charger-400-600HP-T3-/251018425088?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a71dd3300#ht_5757wt_1113

Seems cheap for what it is..

(if it seems too good to be true, it probably is??)

Cost with that turbo will blow out massively

Ext waste gate

High mount manifold

New dump to suit

New intake to suit

Custom water/oil lines

Get hypergear to highflow your turbo and tell him what your aiming for performance wise

Pretty sure he can get a neo op6 turbo up to about 260awkw

YEah I got a quote for about $960.... with that price, i thought it may be better to just buy a new turbo??

Turbo upgrades always means more money. A hiflow is a pretty sensible way to go to keep costs down but it is always going to cost more than you think.

Hiflow turbo, injectors, AFM, Nistune + tune. (assuming FMIC and 3" exhaust already done).

how big depends on if you think you will go e85 in the future

personally, i'd get the highflow/ss1 and the fuel pump and rock what your tuner feels safe on stock afm and injectors

if you go big injectors you will max out the afm too

Ok sounds like a plan. Don't think I'll be going on e85 anytime soon.. Haven't even seen it in petrol stations yet!!

I remember the tuner last time saying the next steps were "high flow turbo back exhaust, bigger turbo, injectors".... so maybe i'll leave injectors off the list for now and get them to tune and see what they think..

Also, worth getting a BOV while i'm at it?? They seem wanky, but have some benefits I read

Leave the stock BOV. There is no performance to be gained buying a new one.

If you want to get the most out of the turbo upgrade buy the injectors and the Z32 AFM. You will pay for tuning twice when you eventually upgrade them.

If you are sticking with stock injectors and afm just run the stock turbo to 12psi with a good tune and it will do the job perfectly well and make around 200rwkw +/- 10kw.

Well to be honest, I have the NISTUNE with stock everything and 12psi boost... Only making 175kw :(

Can you list all your mods.

fmic, pod, nistune, cat back exhaust...

potentially interested in your stocker if you do upgrade :)

hasn't missed a beat mate, so will let you know :)

3" dump and a 5" bodied cat (Venom??) and re-tune should be 200rwkw give or take.

Yeah they were both on my shopping list... I'll do those first then and see how she goes... :)

Not sure whether I'll have clearance for the 5" cat, may have to go 4"....

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
