ok jst bought my car recently an R33 gtst gun metal grey in color, The mods are as follows:-

* FMIC

* After market Fuel Pump

* Pod Filter

* 3 inch exhaust straight thru

* Dual Stage Boost Controller

* Standard ECU piggybacked

I am told it has 180rwkw but wana get a bit more power out of it like around 240kw i would be happy.

What would be the next step im thinking turbo but dont wana get a new one so was thinking to hi flow the turbo. What Workshop is good with hi flowing the r33 turbo has anyone got it done and reccomends somebody??

And people are saying on the forum 14psi is the max boost u can run off the standard turbo but im running 16psi atm?

Be carefull running 16psi through the stock turbo, 14psi is the limit usually and you should only be running that occasionaly so 16psi is really pushing its lifespan. http://www.gcg.com.au/ do good highflow jobs and are widely recommended and used by people on this forum, including me. My turbo had the 500hp highflow done to it, and has seen 18psi with no worries, 500 - 700 rpm laggier down the bottom but holds strong all the way to the rev limiter. Try and find out what the piggy back computer is... Also moving up into that power area (what my car is running with the same mods as you) you'll also be pushing your injectors (unless you have a wolf 3d or you are from perth) and your clutch will slip for sure. Other than that everything should be fabulas, maybe a fuel regulater to pump the fuel pressure up a tad.

Hope this helps. :)

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
