So coming to end of the year ill be finished with paying off the car.

Want to upgrade the car

All suspension side is sorted(away bars, coil overs, bracing, bushes etc.)

So I was thinking front mount with plenum gtr style, 80mm throttle body, upgraded fuel rail, hi flow 34 turbo, electronic boost tee, electronic bov, 450lph fuel pump, 550cc injectors, Ecu ( not sure on Ecu yet), fix the zorst and new clutch and clutch lines

Then a pain after all that

Any other mods? Or suggestions to not do some? Or brands

anything

Inputs

Coments

Numbers for new to town ladies

Cheap parts

Maybe 700cc injectors and wouldn't do the electronic BOV highly illegal and not worth it really. Maybe just go nistune chip for ecu? depends how much money you wanna throw i know for what I want to do which is the high flow 34 turbo, bigger injectors, fuel pump etc, Z32 AFM and ecu with nistune chip etc is about $4500/$5000 or something. Correct me if I'm wrong at all #@Cadmoon

This. Spend that $1k on DBA T3 slotted rotors and some QFM A1RM pads

Also, high temp brake fluid and proper diff fluid and strong gearbox fluid and coolant flush and

f**k that, full fluid flush!

Yep defiently full flush, maybe could get away with the T3 slotted brakes and HPX instead of A1RM pads, maybe, def high temp fluid. How far are you away from 100,000km service?

over 300HP would def go up to the A1RM, i'm running the T3 slotted and HPX and run absolutly fine. inb4 slow jokes

It's more how often you use the power. If you have 300bhp but are only in 1st and 2nd in the city for work, no point. They would struggle to tech temp.

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
