Upgrading to single setup, need some help

Hey guys,

Im pretty new to this but have done some reading. I have an r33gtr vspec & just chasing approximately 450-500hp and dont want to touch bottom end. Do i need to upgrade my camshafts? or anything else along the way for the power im chasing. If so what is recommended that wont send me broke as i have already purchased a few items already, atm i have purchased a single turbo kit setup; (6boost manifold, 6262 precision turbo 0.84 rear, twin scroll t4 with the turbosmart prolite50mm waste gate.)  Also purchased 1150cc (e85) injectors & 460LPH walbro pump. 

Just purchased a timing belt kit also, with water pump inlcuded (hence why im asking about camshaft before replacing. )

Already have Power fc that was installed and tuned with old setup which was the N1 twins. 

Would be greatly appreciated with all the help i can get with info.

Good news, just remembered that previous owner has replaced the head gasket :D So i guess last thing that i shall do while i do the timing belt kit is the cam shaft, will go for the typeB poncam from Tomei

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
