hi guys my cars currently at the workshop undergoing an operation u could call it, its having a new fuel pump wacked in with a FPR, a new set of injectors, an A'Pexi power FC, and a new Garrett GT30R turbo, so after a tune it should psh about 250rwkw, i have all basic mod's FMIC, air filter and exhaust...

i was just wondering wat u guys think it would run down the 1/4mile, i was thinking low 12's maybe high 11's, is this realistic? any thoughts and comments are welcome..

you'll need some wide rubber if its street gear to get 11's IMO.

i skimped through @ 12.1 and that was ~300rwkw on the old motor... 25/GT30.

The most retarded amount of wheelspin as i was using 225 street tyres :D

yeh already got a clutch and i know mine spun in first before the upgrade, about the airflow meter, i was thinking of getting a z32, but am not sure if ill need it does anyone know wat the limits are on the standard AFM?

ive got damper adjustable shocks at front and back, not sure wat brand, but my car sits pretty low. so im not sure wat to set them to wen draging but, hey i guess i can muck around a little on the day make it softer or harder!!!!

Go softer so your car can squat down on the launch, and let your tyre pressure down quite a bit for better traction.

I would go the Z32 AFM as there is the option to select that airflow meter built into the Power FC, which will make the tuning process a little easier. When making that sort of power I think you are better of sticking with a product you know works.

Good luck at the drags, I'd say a low 12 is on the cards.

yeh custom as in made specially for me, wow $440 is pretty expensive, i think i might get my mates he is known for supplying good stuff....

but what do you mean by custom ?

Spend the money on a new one mate. You wont regret it in the long run.

After all the mods you've done, turbo injectors etc. Ifm your saying $440 for a new AFM is expensive then its time to sell the car :P

i wasnt saying $440 is expensive i was thinking that the custom made one is probably a better flowing AFM then a z32, which means i have no limits in the future if i decide to push for more power.... and as PHATGTR said i porb will go for a z32 as i have a power FC and if it makes tuning easier then i will get it...

im still struggling to understand though.

how can a "custom" one flow more?

What is custom about it?

Hows does it work with a PowerFC?

Is it a Z32 thats copped up? How would the resolution go on this "custom" AFM?

just interested

    • You know what, I am enjoying your updates, but I have to say it is pretty poor form to walk into a shop that is paying for space and stock on the floor, try all their seats to work out what you are happy with, then buy somewhere else. If everyone did that the shop will be out of business with no opportunity for anyone to try a seat before buying. 👎  
    • Good work, and thanks for posting up your solution for future people!
    • Yeah mate that’s the plan, I just want something I can have fun in and work on during weekends.  There’s really only 1 road fit to drive the car on and luckily is been redone recently.  I do want to tune it next year sometime, no dynos here so I’m looking at an ECU that can be remote tuned. 
    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
