OK guys.

I have bitten the bullet and decided the NA R33 for me and I am now on the lookout.

I want to put some money away for some decent mods, however I don't know what to get ;)

Can some people specify some things and FYI for the mods I have a budget of say about $4k.

Ta in advance.

Easy Non foam pod Air filter, cat and exhaust made no difference unless it's a new cat, plugs work and if you've got the bucks lean the mixture out.

There's a 30% power gain from the Power FC but all it does is lean the mixture out. This can be done with fuel controllers at a cheaper price.

I wouldn't waste my money on headers and stuff the performance gain is too little for the out lay.

Also speak to skyliner33wa as he's trying to sell his and the thing looks got and has some nice mods.

while the RB25DE is a good engine it doesnt repsond too well to mods.

basics have been mentioned such as filter, exhaust and management change. the reality of it is that you should probably just save for a turbo. i gave up on my R33 GTS for the same reasons, you just cant make it fast enough:D

      It does sound like a fuse considering the indicators work..I’ll triple check when I’m free and report back.    thanks for the reply.

      While going through data logs late last week, I spotted a small issue with my WMI. My WMI starts to progressively inject at 11psi of boost. I'm using a 25psi cut in pressure switch on my WMI as an added safety and if the curve is linear, I should hit that 25psi on my WMI system around 13-14psi of boost.  As per my data logs, my WMI pressure switch only activates around 19psi of boost. This is causing my non WMI 4D map to trim for WMI. I'm presuming this is caused by the mechanical switch response time, injection curve not being linear or both.  I ordered a 2-10psi adjustable cut in pressure switch which should correct this. If this doesn't resolve it before my dyno appointment on Friday, I'll just remove the pressure switch temporarily and more than likely replace it with a pressure transmitter afterwards.    BTW Speedtek has yet to refund me.

      3D printing fun

      Yep PETG (Polyethylene terephthalate glycol), my 'go to' plastic, printed to precisely how long I wanted 🙂, about a finger length ha ha. I would usually grind up something but since I've got the printer I thought I might give it a try and it worked beautifully ^_^b So with regards to torque, there's a little bit of science behind the orientation of the print, fill density, fill pattern and number of external perimeters which can increase the strength dramatically, but you still need to work within the constraints of the material and the orientation of the model for sure. I certainly wouldn't be making a breaker bar out of plastic, but this little bugger is very strong for it's size that's for sure.

      This is the part I was unprepared for. I mean, thinking about it now, the first day I collected my car from the importer someone posted a photo of it on the highway to an online JDM page which my friend then sent me. I drove straight to the office to pick up some things and was immediately swarmed by about ten college kids -  "how much power" "why no wing" etc. The next couple times I went out I didn't really notice anything, there was a "why no wing" at a service area at some point. Then during the fourth time out driving at the Nurburgring I got the "do a drift" - the bastard cut it out in this clip. The title in itself is a red flag. As you may have guessed, I am not a fan of the attention. This leads me to wondering what to do with the car in the future; I'll see how this year goes and it may be garaged, which it mostly is already, or maybe even sent back to Japan  to also be garaged and driven occasionally on visits. Fortunately my daily is as interesting as drying paint.
