Camshaft makes the car rev at a higher rpm correct?

I've already got a k&n air filter. how do i increase air more than that? and not sure what mods will increase fuel flow.

increase capacity of power?

Starting googling on how an internal combustion engine works, then what mods you can do to them to improve different aspects.

Lots and lots of searching and reading.

Are you just looking for ways to waste money? If so, spending money on cars is the way to go (I know, im building a track car apparently). Spending money on NA skylines, well thats just one step short of giving your money to the government in tax which equates to throwing it in the bin.

Sorry when i said i bought it for $100, i meant $100 second hand, won on a ebay auction. Its the only reason why i bought it, the system was worth 800 dollars. Any system will drone on an n/a without appropriate mufflers.
And no i never got pulled over in my r33. It gave me head aches before i put the silencer in, silencer gave it a nice note :) Thats probably the best you can ask for in a n/a.

Ill add some of my mates and my own past experiences with n/a exhausts (no silencers).

Mates r33: 2.5inch cat back exhaust + hotdog reso = droney....no power gains
My r33: factory system(incl resonator etc..) with canon tip = droney....lost power
Mates r34: 2.5inch cat back exhaust + hotdog reso = droney....gained power? *strange*
Mates r34 GT-V with 5Zigen $1500 exhaust = Nice pleasent note...no power gains.

For a sedan though, you could get an exhaust shop to weld to size and fit, shouldnt be that different if you are getting just from the cat back. Will sound good too.

Just get a 2.5" mandrel bent exhaust, extractors, high flow panel filter (before you ask podfilterz?, just don't on n/a and unboxed)

Keep these mods for your 3 years. Every dollar you spend more on other items other than these above^ is a waste of money. I had the turbo restrictions too, it's just not worth spending cash on shit cars. When you get your full licence you'll want to get rid of it straight away for something turbo without a second thought.

If you want to spend more money. Then buy an ADM S15.

Don't spend a cent on it. Just drive it while saving up money, then when you have enough money sell the skyline and buy a Ford focus xr5 turbo. P plate legal, much faster than a non turbo skyline, way less police attention and a whole lot nicer to drive/be in.

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
