ive just joined this forum, thanks for making this a memorable experience,appreciate who bothered to reply without being a wanker. All I asked was opinion on must do?

To the cock snot, way to make a skyline brother welcome

Baptism of fire son, baptism of fire. But that's the way, don't take no shit lol. Anyway, there's heaps of info on here about starting mods; have a good read, make a budget and list of what you're looking at doing then come back with it and ask. You're getting smartass replies cos ppl can't be fkt answering the same q's that have the answers easily available; best to do your own research then ask more specific q's.

HI,

I have a 94 GTST. Finally getn my ass into gear and do some upgrades.

I had thought, bigger turbo, front mount etc etc.

Any other ideas of what i MUST do?

Any comments at all.

cheers

Upgrade your suspension to something that's not shit, change all rubber bushings, full service, fix any leaks or other issues. Get better tyres.

Lots to do before looking at a front mount and bigger turbo.

that's proving the point...not hard at all to find that information, as you say...

also as Nizmo Man says, depends on what OP wants from said car, suspension upgrades can be a hell of a lot more worthwhile than doing power stuff and leaving handling shite.

thanks bro. all sorted, lots of rsearch, staying fairly standard, already have 3" and coil over, g2 high flow my stock turbo, leave existing afm, fmic, new gates racing timing kit (becaise it overdue).

What the best way to set up a cold air feed? also, do you know best dry pod filter?

Thanks, looks the same as what i had already put together, although im going to highflow the stock turbo through hypergear turbos in melbourne. also re-map the existing ecu <230rwkw?

Toshi does remaps on stock ecu

    • Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.
    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.
