Hi guys, I have a relatively stock 95 r33 gtst. The only mods are a ceramic puk clutch and an 3 inch straight through exhaust ( not sure what brand ) into a dynomax muffler. Is this exhaust restrictive? Would a full stainless hks system provide more power? I would like to get some more out of her but not sure where to start. Not big on turbo cars but willing to learn, would eventually like a figure around 280 - 300kw if that's possible. Thanks for your patience guys and any recommendations on my first mods would be great.

the first mod should be the search function in the top right corner of this site

now now, play nice with the new kid... hopefully he's/she's converted from bogan mobile to a real car.

First mod, new ECU

Ecu

Front mount intercooler

Hi flow cat

Fuel pump

Injectors

Turbo

SEARCH BUDDY

Read the RB 25 dyno thread. Will give you a good idea on what people have done to make X amount of power.

Cheers Josh

less then 10 posts i play nice after that all bets are off :D

what Josh has said is about all there is to it, you just need to know exactly what size parts you need to make your power goal then purchase fit and tune, done

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
