Hmmm greaaaaaat, so all or nothing then hhey :/ saw on a thread somewhere that someone was making 200kws with a hks something, I have ... or had 187 with stock turbo so I thought I could get away with something without a tune? Surely you wouldn't tune for 13 kws ?

Might

highflow turbo. low boost

Might as well just run the std turbo at 10 psi. Likelihood of it blowing at that level is low. Likelihood of it taking out the engine if it does blow is also low (unlike on RB26s where it seems to be near certain). Makes more sense than paying for upgraded turbo that will have more lag and make no more power because you're limiting yourself to no tune.

Depending on what the high flowed profile is.

We can highflow it to run on 10 to 22psi reliabily with factory alike response and drive ability on standard ecu.

Highflowed turbocharger is capable of supporting a maximum of 270rwkws on pump 98 and had customers making 320rwkws on e85 With supporting mods.

This could be read as it is safe to run 22psi on the stock ecu with a highflow, which is very wrong.

Please fix your post so we keep everything accurate.

What is the correct maximum amount of boost you have safely run on a stock ECU with a highflow?

yes i have massive trust issues with the r33 stock turbo, as it went and the motor ate the compressor wheel and it apparently didnt taste good.
so looks like high flow or nothing at this stage, estimated price to high flow a 33 turbo

also can anyone give me more info on the 34 turbo?

also my 33 turbo went while i was running 9psi, hasnt run anything more in the time that ive owned it either ...

how would the car perform with the highflow turbo and no tune?

I will post a photo of my turbo for more understanding haha

Worse than stock. As I posted above. More lag, no more boost (in fact less boost).

Alright, it might not be that bad, it might even be slightly better. But why f**k about? Just put a bloody ECU in it.

yeah that would have been the plan if i didnt do some serious motor damage when the turbo went, so now im up for mass coin
thats why hiflow would be good if i got the same or some performance? then later on i can get an ecu, injectors etc and make good power without changing the turbo again

Your ECU wont allow you to make more power with a highflow, it will hit R&R and make the engine hesitate.

What you are after is a standard highflow getting rid of the ceramic wheel. It wont make more power but will live as long as you will own the car.

Will also give you the option of running more boost in the future once you obtain a tune-able ECU.

Or slap in a highflow and get in touch with Toshi (forums sponsor) for an off the shelf remap using your stock afm, stock injectors, etc. so you can up the boost without falling off the map with your stock tune.

Old turbo died and took out motor... coin spent on new motor, ideally wants more power, but doesnt want to spend more money... hmmmmmmm

I would rather spend $900 on a cheap nistune + tune than getting a different turbo for "reliability".

This sounds like good advice.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By Marek · Posted

      Here's the link: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6642/misc/G49?frame_no=WGNC34-137122 What you think about it? The same product i found on nengun: https://www.nengun.com/oem/parts/40567/MiPwn5qAMfCfmpxHNDnwn5q9MDAx8J-QiW9sZC1qcC0xMTAtRzQ5LS0wMDE/Floor+Carpet+%2F+Mat+2/0688339eba149c19 Bot i have spoken to 😅 ensured me, that mats are 100% original, oem product. I have my doubts. I also heard what you mentioned, that nengun often offers items that are actual not available... On the other hand mats i found on japanese yahoo or ebay are in poor condition and still quite expensive so i'd rather wait for some better offers. My location - Poland. We literaly don't have ANY market for used Stagea parts so need to search outside Europe.

      You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By Marek · Posted

      Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
