Im learning, Im learning..One thing is I din't know about turbos being 'wastegated' etc...even tho it wil be an every day car pretty much those GT-SS's sound ok, but I want that 500hp I was on about for this project. Thanks for your help so far guys, I will stick to the PFC, belt, cams and remote oil for now . And hope that I have no major expenses (not going towards this) any time soon hahahah! 11ty billion

oh yeah , ok, so is the incar gauge is temp or pressure (Ive never actually noticed before)

Mullaloo is fully of yuppi, collar up, pink shirt fags Ive been there 3 times and don't really care for it Although, it is the closest out spot to where I live....The Dilemas!

1) My oil pressure guage reads around 70-80C, even after a drive....whats yours at? 2) welcome to the wonderful world of HICAS. Consider a HICAS lockbar (My HICAS light is CONSTANTLY on ) 3) I dunno....

I was just looking at those on at Nengun as I looked at your post and they are the same price deleivered as the standard PFC ($941 del) whats the Jetro got that the standard doesn't...obviously something to do with the AFM's?! EDIT: oh, wait, its this right! 2 X Map Sensors 1 X Sensor Harness 2 X Nipples

Remote Oil Filter, sorry... Thanks Tommy, helps a lot for deciding what I don't need from that list. I have a list of parts and repairs that were done by the previous owner which amount close to $8000. The main parts include the water pump replaced at about 85,000kms, and this lot at 93,000km's (which were part of a full engine rebuild) : --Complete Gasket Set --4X4 Heavy Duty Clutch --All belts and fluids --Machined flywheel and front brakes --Iridium Spark Plugs --Radiator top tank and thermostat and he was constantly getting workshops to look it over and replace the fuel filter, oil filter, oil and coolant. Also when I had it dyno tested in June/July it ran a really smooth curve and the boost kicked in and held nicely where it should have at 11PSI ....how many PSI is 1.4bar? What are 2530's worth? What would be a safe boost level, in PSI, for R34 turbos? cheers Tom

HA!, I like that :lol:

I am gunna start increasing the horses of my GTR next year, currently 293hp with dump pipe, exhaust and pods (turbos as well, but I want to replace them with steel wheel turbos) and hoping for 500hp when I am done. This will be my project for as long as I have the car so I won't rush straight in and buy everything at once. I have listed a huge engine mods list and was wondering if someone in the know could get it to include essentials to reach ~500hp. I'm assuming this list could be cut down dramatically to gain a measly extra ~200hp . What I am trying to find out is what the potential bottlenecks are when aiming for a figure. This is a list of what I want to do for stage 1: Power FC - APEXI Cam Gears - TOMEI Adjustable Timing Belt - TOMEI Remote Oil Filter (not fuel filter, sorry) List of extras to get me to ~500hp: (Seperated into possible stages) AFM's - NISMO Z32 with TOMEI Z32 Adaptor (or D-Jetro PFC, leaning towards AFM's tho) Injectors - SARD 700CC (700's it is then) Spark Plugs - NGK (Gapped to 0.8, current gap unknown) ================ Fuel Pump - NISMO Water Pump - R32 replacement Oil Catch Can - GREDDY ================ Camshafts - TOMEI (IN260deg / EX260deg / L9.15mm) Con Rods - TOMEI Forged H-beam (ARP Rod Bolts instead?!) Turbos - HKS GT-SS Bolt-On Kit (Considering GT-2530's if I want more than 440hp) ================ Valve Springs - TOMEI (forget these) Crankshaft - R33 GTR (forget this now) Wastegate - HKS GT II (forget this now, using turbos with internal gates) Fuel Rail - HKS (SARD's fit factory rail) Balancer - ROSS 2 PIECE (not using 9000+, so forget it) Oil Cooler (meh!, not using it for much track really, forget this) All prices from Nengun or Unique Autosports (http://www.nismo.com.au) The total price for the parts in that list is ~$16,000 which is well over my budget for modifying this car.

gotcha, too easy B)

I don't know actually............I didn't ....... B)

that'd be the 31337 version which has a subscription to Live! Gold the 20GB HDD and a few other tricks and the core version which has the system and a control and thats it pretty much I'm waiting for a PS3 thanks

I have WRC3 which is ok, but I hear that WRC4 is spose to be much better...

you say the payment will be required soon could I request to pay after/on the 15th of Dec?! sending email now also....

hmm, I have another thing I could go to on that day, but plans only penciled in at the mo B) Whats the closest intersection of the Truck Stop on Abernathy?

day or arvo on a Wednesday?, I can't make any daytime weekdays because of work... Wednesday arvos/evenings at Hilarys is usually teh most active/packed outside a weekend

nah, I am planning on computer, cam gears, belt and boost increase first. Cams and other internals later on. thanks anyway Also, I found the Tomei Cams (IN260deg / EX252deg / L9.15mm) at Nengun for $887 delivered for the RB26DETT: http://www.nengun.com/catalogue/product/38

thats right, equal to 186.5kw.... Doesn't hiflow relate to the intercooler, meaning it has a thicker/wider core therefore allowing more airflow through the whole turbo system.... That is a nice figure Wink (Hi, TX3 here from OCAU B) ). I think I suggested a PFC in your OCAU thread but now I see its an auto so SAFC-it like others have said. I wonder what sort of power injectors and a fuel pump would add?, or would they only matter with much higher horsepower?! Good luck anyway

ok, that price was from Unique Autosport or something.... (www.nismo.com.au) EDIT: according to Greenline the Tomei camsharft from 252/9.5 (LOW) all the way up to 290/11.50 (SUPER HIGH) ar exactly the same price Approx. $350-$360 each which fits straight into an R32 GTR? or do they all fit?

My GTR is tuned to 11PSI. With R34 GTR turbos (ball-bearing, ceramic wheel) exhaust and pods its pulling 293hp as you can see from my sig

The tomei ones I was looking at yesterday were 9.15/260deg...how does that rate compared to other lifts and degs? these were $1400 for pair as well, is that an average figure? I know nothing about cams and timings etc, but want to know before I get into modifying next year...

Forum: would that be forum name or 'SAU'?

you get a bonus making of (I think) dvd with the black edition

Neither. Infact don't get any 6x9's (I am assuming you want them for the rear?!). Good front splits are the best way to go. I have MB Quart front splits myself.... I am one to talk tho, coz I actually have Pioneer 6x9's in the back of my car...but the sound is faded to the back so I can only just hear them if I tilt my head sideways around the seat. If I had to choose tho, I'd get Pioneers

Heres an Xmas version for ya... , I am very bored and still learning PS....
