high flowed with bearings and seals 1200 the only reason i did it was coz my oil seals in my turbo went but yea i got a dual stage boost controller aswell r u sure its the cooler not the fuel pump thats not letteing ur boost go up coz its happened to a few friends of mine the pump goes.

nope fuel pump and injectors r running well! fuel pump cant effect how much boost u run, if the fuel pumps not running well then it will just run the engine lean!

its the cooler cause guy who got same power as me with same mods got a new FMIC put on and got his car dynoed right after me and he got 169kw@wheels at 9psi!!

in reality when u r running 12psi at intake the turbo will be running about 14psi atleast with the pressure drop being through the pissy small stock IC!

INASNT, where did you get your S-AFC tuned and how much? Have you thought about Water/methanol injection? Its half the cost of a FMIC, legal and unless you race around a track to get enough air flow through a big FMIC , works more efficiently on the street. Although a big FMIC does look cool!

Me and Grim were gonna put a water spray kit on the intercooler but in the end its not worth the stuffing around as the stock IC has such a small surface area where the air is cooled its pointless!

I got my s-afc tuned by the guys at ICE PERFORMANCE and it cost round $100.

I didn't mean a IC spray kit, but a true injection system via the intake plenum. No pinging, lower intake temp and more power at lower boost. For eg, A swisho system that Group A rally cars use only costs about $900 fitted against about $1600 for a DECENT fmic!. Less lag too over! as you don't have the big pressure drop of a huge cooler.

$100 sound good for a AFC tweak, will have to get down there!

oh ok, water spray for intake is a very good idea, and seem it work on cars running lots of boost, but no intercooler!

But u need sum sort of controller to control the system properly!

The 1'c i have seen incorporated it with an Autronic SMC ecu system.

Alcohol (isopropyl) injection is better than water(water is good though). The stock ic has plenty of pressure drop BTW, it has fairly poor flow. A modest sized front mount like the trust will increase air flow speed over the stock one (ie: less lag).

Look at it this way..

Summer is on the way.

AUS temps go pretty high in summer.

Just yesterday it was like 30 degrees and it's only going to get higher.

The standard cooler in winter is probably good to work efficiently at 12psi or less.

in summer, that standard cooler isn't going to do shit.

Get a good front mount and you will see an immediate improvement over the stock item.

If you have spent the money on getting a steel wheel on your turbo, then at the moment you won't be able to use that power until you change your standard pissy cooler.

You know the drill...

exhaust, filter, cooler, boost.

don't worry about water/metho injection or whatever...

do the basics first.

Keep an eye out on the forums for intercoolers that come up for sale.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
