Hi All,

I am fairly new to skylines and have only had my car for 2 months. Can anybody tell me about good performance guys around in Sydney.

I want to do the following upgrades:

ECU, Intercooler, Dump Pipe, Boost Controller, BOV.

Thanks

If your asking where to buy those parts, I wouldn't be looking at performance shops in Sydney. The interweb is your friend.

If your asking about installation, most of those are very easy and well covered on this forum. Consider doing them yourself if you have the time/tools as its a great way to learn and save some dosh (for more mods of course!).

As always, I'd give Nathan @ Grey Imports ((02) 9519 5150) a shout if your in the inner west area.

Lucien.

spend $900 more on a brand new powerfc, and get about 50% more power.

you serious about this comment - will a power fc increase the car's performance by a lot if you only have an exhaust and airfilter upgrades?

50% is arguable, but yes with a Power FC particularly, you can easily overcome the issues caused by the factory GTS-T engine management when you have the typical exhaust/intercooler/pod type mods and want to run higher boost.

This is just one of the many benefits available when running the Power FC, and at the price they are available for currently, they are excellent value and bang for your buck!

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
