exhaust and boost control. forget the pod (wank factor only) go for a good panel filter.(good enough for mines R34 gtr time attack car)then look at intercooler and ecu.

Thanx StaceRacer.....I'm not too familiar with abbreviations (ECU??) Also, I forgot to mention that it has a 3" Jun-BL pipe.....Sumthin I've noticed is that at high REVS, the car seems to have a sort of miss and a popping noise from the back-end (exhaust).....I end up losing a lot of power.....Can anyone help me with sum suggestions as to what this may be??? PLEEEEAAAASE???

sounds like ignition breakdown, what plugs you using and what gap. p.s. ecu is the engine computer.

      Welshys 32ZILA and the 8HP.

      By welshy_32ZILA · Posted

      Near 12mths since the last update apologies.  Car is back running and driving.  Have had a few runs at the drag strip also with a bit of success.  Managed to run tje cars PB with a 10.88 @139mph with a 2.0 60ft.  I have a stock 8hp converter and it's definitely too tight for my setup. But it drives on the street phenomenal. So happy to have converted from the sequential. Has made the car enjoyable to drive vs a what felt like a chore with the sequential.  Looking a at few different options for converters waiting for some feedback from SDE if he can do one for me.  Still a few minor things to work out regarding finalising torque reduction, I have it working but needs to refining.

      I honestly wouldn’t bother with this. They don’t hold up under any serious strain. Get the Blackline (Chinese fake Quaife) if anything, as it’s reported to perform pretty well.

      Asking where to source parts

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      For future reference, I believe all that Amayama does is act as a middleman between you and Nissan. Go to your local dealership, ask nicely for a parts account (I get 15% off with mine) and you'll get better pricing. Cheers,

      V35 Skyline possible engine swaps?

      By Blakeo · Posted

      Hi guys, I have a 2005 V35 skyline with the vq35de.  It is a drift car and has been stripped, its now running a standalone ECU and a body harness. Dash everything has been changed to a digital dash controlled by ecu.  The vq35de has been great, very reliable but wanting more HP atm the 35de is making 228rwhp. I'd like to be making about 350rwhp. From my research it looks like a vq25det lightly modified could be a good engine to swap in. I understand the CD trans will bolt up right to the vq25det with a 35de sump used.  My only issue is a wiring harness/ecu to control the vq25det, from what i've found the ecu is a lot different to the vq35de so my plugin for the 35de will not work. Is there any potential to use the vq35de wiring harness and modify as necessary to retain the plugin ecu?  Keen to hear what you guys think, or am I best off to chuck on a cheap turbo kit on the 35de and see how long it lasts.

      R32 Nostalgia

      Oh sorry Justin! I was racking my brain trying to remember names, not sure why I associated “Adam” with 7tune! I’m good, been away from Skylines for over a decade, got family and kids now. Just getting back into owning a 32 but it’s a whole different world now… tax is higher and tech is better.
