It will be a long story, and it's happening..I like to share the story with everyone and hopefully hear from you..

most of us all enjoy the power from our stock turbo, soon some of us start try to get every drop of juice from our stock turbo...rise the boost......need more......then will start to consider hiflow, bolt on upgrade or an after market path

I choose after market path..because I know that once I try the taste of power then I will not stop, and the after market path looks like way to go for me..

At the moment, my 95' R33 has Trust FMIC (600x276x76), Blitz Sus Pod, 3.5" Cat back exhaust, and PowerFC.

I like to have some power, don't mind a bit lag (well, got to pay some price), when I need the power...floor the gas!! Off boost in the traffic is fine for me..however I want this upgrade can last longer without thinking about upgrade soon...

After done some research, compare different turbos, and heaps phone call to those turbo shop, I decide TD06 seems an good idea; consider lots people in JP have good result from it (drag and drift, these two driving style are totally different, right?!), and JMS has good result use it......

but which one?

To cut the story short...I bought a TD06-25G 16cm^2

the 16cm^2 is bigger then 8, 10, 12^2 normally use in TD06-20g on 1800~2000 cc..and because near 500cc over's advantage of R33 I think the lag won't be too bad..well, we will know soon..

what else in my cart now? Nismo 550cc injectors, Q45 AFM (got the wire diagram and P-fc map for it), gaskit, Tomei R33 250L/H pump, manifold, wastegate, front pipe (one piece with dump pipe), HKS EVC and set of cam gears and ex-hicam and heavy clutch...did I miss anything?

I know it will be a fun project (or pain at neck?), and I willing to share with you, will let you know soon..

I have a td06-20g with a 16cm2 exhaust housing. It should be tuned in the next 4-5 weeks, currently sitting on the stock manifold and with a stock ecu. Makes 344hp @ 13psi, full boost by 4600rpm. I expect boost to come on quicker once the ecu is fitted, if it isnt much better I'll look into a tubular manifold. I'll let you know how I go, but I expect to make 360ish with the ecu and around 14psi.

yes, you are right, the rev still can go on and on..coz the dyno graph showed very health power curve..with good a/f mixture..

But the twin plate is a bitch at traffic..

Hehehe, when I first drove mine with the twin plate, it was straight into peak hour traffic. Anyone near me must have thought I was a farking nutbag or something- you know what I mean;)

But once you are used to them, you would never want to go back to single.

Yes,Steve ..and only twin will able to hold such savage boost..hahaha..

I am getting better for the clutch now..only stall three time drove to work this morning...and getting the ride feeling..I remember I laugh laud at buster when he just got on twin plate..well...now I know..

The car produce some sort of power which out of my expection..but all good..

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
