Whats up guys. Im moving overseas soon and i'll be getting a R32 gtst there.

There are no major rules against modifying like here in OZ so i just wanted to know what mods i can get done to the car...the catch being that there are no dyno facilities there so when should i stop modifying the engine ( tuning problems with bigger turbo's, power fc, etc)

Can u tell me what turbo and computer will be best for my situation.

Ive got suspension, etc covered but i dont wanna be stuck with just a fmic, boost controller, etc.

My goal is around 200 rwkw ( i dont exactly know how i will measure this :D

Do u think its possible cos there are a few fast cars there such as BMW M3 Coupe, R34 GTR to name a few and i wanna keep up with them( i know its a big ask ;)

Thanks for your time and consideration guys.

cheers

If it was me I'd be doing a crash course in the pfc, microtech or many others, with an exhaust sensor you can do a tune with 2 ppl while driving.

For 200kw on my rb25 i have pod, 3" turbo back, intercooler, 1bar, fuel pump/reg, and microtech. Without the microtech I had lots less kw but was running shite.

Duh slaps forehead. You can do all your mods then get a chip custom made for them so whayever you do theres some one out there who can do it for you.

250-260rwkw:

3" dump pipe / front pipe combo

3" hiflow cat

3" cat back exhaust

electronic boost controller

550cc injectors

apexi powerfc

gtr fuel pump

gtr front mount intercooler

hks gt-rs turbocharger

tomei 260 poncams

z32 airflow meter

heavy duty clutch

good tyres

good driver

200rwkw:

3" dump pipe / front pipe combo

3" hiflow cat

3" cat back exhaust

electronic boost controller

apexi powerfc

gtr fuel pump

gtr front mount intercooler

good tyres

good driver

youll still need a good tuner and a good dyno to make either combo work

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
