Have recieved conformation today from Nengun that HKS gtrs is being processed, have been looking forward to this for ages. Can anyone steer me in the right direction if there is anything else needed to complete this set up. The car is currently only making 201.6 rwkw, am keen to get into some track racing every month or so as time permits. Already have some semi slicks for the dry but still need to look into coilovers, standard springs at the moment with KYB sports shocks are a bit soft. Will also be getting later hicas lock bar an for little bit more midrange power HKS poncams.

So anything else that needs doing that will have to be done before tune with new turbo?????

1995 R33 GTST

Power fc

550 Nismo injectors

Walbro 500hp

Exceedy clutch

Hybrid fmic

Hybrid dual stage EBC

DBA slotted rotors

look into airflow meter, the z32 should be spot on, get it before you get it tuned. you might want to check voltage and pressure for the walbro, we've seen them as known baddies in the skyline, on standard wiring at least.

look at SK's group buy on the suspension setup make sure you get swaybars also, and if its only for the occasional track day, then adjustable castor and camber bushes, rear subframe bushes. That should get you started on the suspension stuff.

You should hardwire that pump, like in the post about it umm Cubes i think started it, do a search for it.

Is the clutch just an organic full faced one with a slightly heavier pressure plate? May need a button one if you start upping the power, better suspension, semi slicks for more traction....it will be just asking for something to slip, if it already is then sweet as mate.

And obviously what paul said already about the AFM.

    • Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!
    • Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.
    • Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 馃槂
    • You're just describing how type certification works. Personally I would be shocked to discover that catalytic converter is not in the stock mounting position. Is there a bracket on the transfer case holding the catalytic converter and front pipe together? If so, it should be in stock position. 
    • You talking about the ones in the photo above? I guess that could make sense. Fixed (but flexible) line from the point up above down to the hubcap thingo, with a rotating air seal thingo. Then fixed (but also still likely flexible) line from the "other side" of the transfer in the hub cap thingo up to the valve stem on the rim. A horrible cludge, but something that could be done. I'd bet on the Unimog version being fed through from the back, as part of the axle assembly, without the need for the vulnerable lines out to the sides. It's amazing what you can do when you have an idea that is not quite impossible. Nearly impossible, but not quite.
