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).

Deatchworks for both

This pump: http://www.deatschwerks.com/products/fuel-pumps/dw300-in-tank-fuel-pump

And these injectors?? (600cc enough?): http://www.deatschwerks.com/products/fuel-injectors/sport-compact/nissan/skyline/neo-rb25det/1998-02/600cc-fuel-injectors

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 :(

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"....

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.

      Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them?

      I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.

      Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
