hey guys ive got a few mods in mind next its time to get something really expensive so ive got the choice of...

-boost controller Blitz SBc ID 3 i have in mind

-Wheels

-intercooler

-exhaust

-bodykit

- or i could just get a heap of little things

this is for my r32 gtst i was Originally thinkin on getting the boost controller because the 32 needs that xrtra bit of boost to put you back in the seat a bit more like the 33s but now im thinking either intercooler or wheels

thanks for the help

is your turbo stock? might want to look at replacing it since the stock ones can't take too much boost. Even if its a cheap one with steel compressor and turbine blades, atleast then you won't have to worry about it blowing up :P

yep, there pretty much all the same (they handle about 10-12psi max). check out: http://www.monstaperformance.com/ they have a TamKO T3/ T4OE 500hp turbo going for $800 - much better than the stock one, then you could run as much boost as you want with it.

Don't even bother with looking at an upgraded turbo until you have done the basics:

* Full turbo-back exhaust

* FMIC

* Fuel pump

* Injectors

etc etc

Just going out now and bolting on a bigger turbo with what you have (or don't have by the sounds of it) is going to do nothing but burn a whole in your wallet.

definately finish off your exhaust first. I duno if there is much point getting just an FMIC. I would only get one if i already had an ebc or was gona get one at the same time. see how you like it will a full zorts, FMIC, boost up to like maybe 12 psi. I doubt you will be maxing out your injectors or fuel pump with the amount of power those mods will provide. If after that you feel its not enough then look into turbo upgrades, like a 2530 or even a rb25 turbo if your budget is tight. be aware that with a turbo upgrade you will likely have to do injectors and pump to get the full benefit out of it.

    • 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 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
