Just checking to see if anyone else has done this and if it is a good idea ?

their price is by far the lowest ive seen. Including shipping its only $640. Has anyone had any good/bad experience with buying from nengun.com ?

I just imported a stock R32 Gts-t and my list is full turbo back zorst, CAI +filter and the AVCR. Anything wrong with this ?

3 months ago i knew next to nothing about cars but since then i have read all the new threads on this board pretty much everyday and i feel like i know what im doing now. (whether or not i actually do is another question).

Finally i want to get a full service and have all fluids changed and the place my friend recommended to me ( cypher in W.A ) quoted me $650 to change everything + battery. Does this seem expensive ? should i go to a cheaper place or pay extra for the best stuff and have a real expert give the car a thorough going-over ?

you wont hear any bad expiriances on this forum.

SAU doesnt condone that behaviour.

If you do a quick search you'll find 100's of people who have got stuff through brett

as for prices. Shop around, go to some WA meets and talk to the people over there.

personally i dont think you need one with those mods, are you planing on modding the car down the track?? i think that money could be used better with maybe a fuel pump and fmic. though i do realise you arnt going to get them with that sort of cash. but befor you got those things i think it would be a waste because you couldnt really safely run much boost at all.

also i have bought stuff for a mate a couple of times through nengun, i wont be again though. just my opinion and i know alot of ppl have had good service though.

ok this might be stating the flaming obvious but why the hell would you want a boost controller if you wernt upping the boost???

well this is what you said

personally i dont think you need one with those mods,...  i think that money could be used better with maybe a fuel pump and fmic.

So going by your words... he cant up the boost as your saying not to buy an AVC-R :headspin:

How can he up the boost... if your saying he doesnt need an AVC-R?

and that he should get something that he doesnt neccasarily need yet.

You can run more boost on the stock I/C & pump :D

but im sure you know that already..............................

yes i know that, but to safely do that you would be better off getting the other items first. do you not agree it would be an overkill to have an avcr with his current mods? otherwise a month down the track he will be posting a new thread, I THINK IVE BLOWN MY TURBO/ENGINE, WHAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THIS?? because even though ppl have and are running higher boost through their stock cars, there have been alot of ppl that blew their engines from trying the same thing by doing the mods to their car in the wrong order.

just my 2c

personally even with the extra mods i wouldnt get an avcr, i'd be looking at something like what jimih has, though not for that price considering autobarn sell them for $75 brand new :D

though not for that price considering autobarn sell them for $75 brand new  :D

haha well yes that was 2 years ago now that i bought that :wassup:

but i agree, no point upping the boost til you have a FMIC as you'll just heatsoak the stock cooler at any decent boost

I bought my front mount from nengun recently. no hassles, but took a while for them to finish processing my order (ordered and paid, then took a about 1.5weeks for them to send it out). Didnt get customs tax etc

Nothing wrong with upping the boost either. 10psi on stock intercooler is fine, although avcr is a bit expensive. But hey, if you like it, buy it!

I'm sorry oh mighty moderator i will try not to have an opinion in the future.

All i was trying to do was help him out in what i think is a better way to mod a car. If my old 32 ran 10psi with the same mods he has then really to be safe you would only boost it to 12psi (like i said my opinion of running safe boost with stock gear). Would you pay over $600 to get the extra power you would make out of running an extra 2psi of boost through the stock i/c and turbo.

Thanks for all the advice guys !

yea i decided to hold off on the AVCR for a while, good deals always come around and i agree there are a few things i need for the car first, i just thought maybe i should get it now whilst i can get it cheaper.

I thought that an AVCR might be a little bit of overkill for a pretty much stock car when i could just get a manual boost controller heaps cheaper, but the AVCR looks so cool !

also, how much boost does a gts-t run stock anyway ? like 7 ?

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
