Went in this morning. It could possibly be done by today but since I rather have it running perfectly without any skips or beats to it, I've said they can have it for another day for it to be tuned properly.

If it is all good by the end of today and I can pick it up this arvo, I'll be happy!

You'll be surprised with Milanco then. Last time (which is the first time) the car was in their workshop. They said they'll have it ready for me on Friday afternoon for me to pick up. They then rang me and said it'll be done by the next day (the next day being thursday).

They rang me back again on the wednesday, said they had a few problems with the turbo cause it didnt fit, so they lent me a turbo for the duration of the time my turbo was in sydney being rebuilt and high flowed.

Thursday afternoon, I was able to go to the workshop and pickup the car and drive out without any problems.

Although these guys DIDNT have to lend me a turbo, they've actually done alot more for me as a customer/client then I've expected and with the care they've put not only into my car but also into the business of having me as a customer, they've done a hell of a lot better then Hardcore!!!!!

I dont usually recommend workshops to anyone but thats probably based on the amount of problems workshops have had. But Milanco have done far better then any other workshop I've been to and they are highly recommended by me.

Even still, I drop my car off at the workshop at 7.30 this morning and Brock was more then happy to quickly give me a lift up to the train station so that I could catch the train to work.

Now that is also good customer service & care!

News is....

BOSCH 044 fuel pump will not fit in the fuel tank as it's 13mm to wide.

Not surprised.....isn't the 044 an external pump and the 040 internal?

Pictures of the turbo rebuilt & high flowed taken by Milanco for me.

Of course, the cleaner one is mine compared to the turbo that was running on my car while mine was off getting rebuilt & high flowed by GCG.

lookin for over 300hp or hopefully around the 240-260kw mark.

Cant really do much right now.

If i boost it up more with the new Apexi AVC-R that's in it, it'll ping.

Once the intercooler is on, it'll be fine to boost up.

But need to really upgrade the ECU they said.

phase #2 is a FMIC (600x300x76) hybrid style one and also a new front bar for the fitting of the FMIC.

phase #3 will be of course the ECU upgrade.

Get a PowerFC, you won't be disapointed. Going alot cheaper these days (Group buy on this forum & www.Nengun.com are selling them at good prices also)

I have just about finished my engine mods & got good results so far.

- New Garrett GT30 BB Turbo (500HP)

- New HKS cast manifold

- New HKS copy 50mm Wastegate & screamer pipe

- Apexi GT Spec FMIC

- Jasma 3.5" Exhaust (soon to arrive is a Greddy/Trust 4" titanium system

- K&N Pod filter.

- New Nismo 550cc Injectors

- New OS Giken Twin Plate clutch

- New Apexi PowerFC

- New Splitfire coils

- New Z32 AFM

- NewBosch 044 pump & surgetank in the boot.

- Blitz Dual SBC (electronic boost controller)

Result 285rwkw@20psi. I currently am using a 10psi wastegate spring, once I change it over to a 14.5 or 15 & put the new exhaust on, I should hit 300RWKW.

phase #2 is a FMIC (600x300x76) hybrid style one and also a new front bar for the fitting of the FMIC.

phase #3 will be of course the ECU upgrade.

What Injectors are you using? & are you using a Z32 AFM?

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
