Hey guys..

Just after some clues on what would be a good next upgrade.

I have a couple grand saved and was thinkin either between a Apexi SAFC or

FMIC or turbo back 3" hi-flow cat exhaust??

What you think I should do next to get the most out of my RB25DET

My mods at the moment are: Apexi Power Filter, 3" Cat back, GFB plummed bov, turbosmart T boost control.

I got the front strut brace, I'm thinking about taking care of suspension a little later down the line.

Im looking to pump more power out of the RB25 then to keep it on the ground I'll look at suspension.

Which one?

1. 3" turbo back exhaust ?

2. FMIC?

3. Apexi SAFC?

4. or any other ideas?

id definately be going for a good suspension set-up to help with the launches and getting the power to the ground.

my 2c

What kind of suspension setup would you be looking at for for the runs?

And how much would I been looking for a decent setup?

I dont really wanna push more than $1k on suspension but if you guys could give me the rough idea on what I'd be looking for.

a bit of topic but i was wondering performance wise if a hi flow cat peforms better than a gutted stock cat or vice versa. In regards to suspension, i would personally go lowered king springs accompanied by bistein shocks which would set you back no more than an 1k brand new as oppose to 2nd hand jap suspensions.

Can anyone else point me in the direction of some springs and shocks?

I dont just want aftermarket suspension just for the f@rk of it..

I'd rather spend a lil more but no im getting the quality and right bang for my buck on the strip.. u know?!?

What does gutting the cat involve? Isn't that what you do to make dim sims :)

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
