  1. Sorry to hijack the tread abit but has anyone ever tryed to use a 'flip flop' (think its called that) paint style on their rims. For eg my car being white and black, painting the rims black and white, depending what angle you look at them, they change from black to white. Think ive explained it pretty badly, but if you get what i mean good idea bad idea? I reckon it may look alright if done properly
  2. Front bar gone, only side skirts left only $200
  3. 10 extra hp mystery box?
  4. Yea, dont want to spend too much money on this car as i will be selling it in about 2 years. Main idea about getting the upgrades, is that they can be used in a turbo'd car
  5. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/20...20&start=20 covered abit of it in that topic
  6. Not really keen on posting 1. may be a bit pricey? 2. Risk of damage. Will look into it for you
  7. r33 rb25de with extractors and cat back 100cell cat, Pod Filter with heatsheild, running on bp ultimate Before Pod filter and heatsheild
  8. Just a concept i guess
  9. $320 for front bar $200 for skirts Going cheap
  10. Put my car on the Dyno today, have gotten improvement from the podfilter with the heatsheild.
  11. Yea i have been thinking along these lines, the mods that i have been buying/planning to buy can all be swapped over to a turbo engine (camgear, nistune, strutbars, coilovers etc) Makes sense in my mind.
  12. Yea, its 161.9hp atrw Think i will just be getting the exhaust side cam gear and the Nistune for the moment, and maybe regrind the cams, (who can i talk to in brisbane for a quote?) Ive had the car for about 6 months and im trying not to sink too much money into it (other than mods that can be crossed over to a turbo system) Can do further mods to it down the track if i feel the need, but for now i think i will do the tune and camgear - jave to do more research on cams
  13. Mmm may be there next week
  14. Yea, id be putting on the Cam gear and doing the port and polish before the tune is done. Id be using the 300zx ecu i don't know if that's a 'smarter' ecu than the 25de one. + Your talking about putting in new camshafts yea? They would be a bit too much for my pretty small wallet >< Main thing im wondering about is the port and polish, think i would just get a light one done or maybe get some second hand heads and practice it myself.
  15. Sigh... typed this out then hit back on my mouse Well, as the topic title says im looking to get 200hp out of my rb25de, why? well i want to So about my car, it has been on the dyno before and put out 161.9hp. That was with DK&E extractors, 2.5" exhaust, no idea what cat and a dirty cheap muffler. Now the car has an Apexi pod filter with heatsheild and piping going up through the new hole i drilled Has also had a new exhaust system put in thanks to being rear ended, its still 2.5" but now has a 100cell cat and a Varex cannon. After these mods the car now feels more responsive and fells like it has more power. Will testing its power this weekend on a dyno to see where im at again. So what i am thinking of doing to get the extra 40hp is - Variable Cam gear for exhaust side - Head Port and Polish - Advance the ignition timing - and a 300zx ecu with a Nistune chip Why get the 300zx with Nistune? Well nistune doesnt work with R33na ecu's so to keep the VCT which i prefer to have you have to get the 300zx ecu. I dont think Nistune has been used on many NA engines so it will be interesting to see what i can get out of it. My tuner said he did get 33hp out of a rb30 using it so hopefully i can get something like that figure. Main thing i need to work out is head port and polish, some people say DIY others say it should only be around $300 others say $600, im not too sure maybe it not worth doing it. So yea, just looking for your advice, and what power gains you have gotten out of this stuff. And don't say get a turbo... as you can see all these mods apart from the port and polish could bolt straight onto a turbo motor... ive thought some of it through Thanks for any help/advice
