Ok current situation is r33gtst stock except for:

3" turbo back

Apexi pod

Hybrid FMIC

stock boost/ecu

Now my next step was a PowerFC with EBC addon but was thinkin of installing a new fuel pump and z32 AFM...

Is this the best corse of action or should i get the PowerFC with EBC addon but D-Jetro verson and fuel pump

hunting around 270rwkw so fuel pump = bosh 040, 044 or somethin else? Should I also get injectors nismo 555 or 740?

Cheers guys!

For 270 rwkw you need a bigger turbo, the AFM, Fuel pump and the other mods you've listed - and a good tune.

My understanding is that you will still have a very responsive car with those power levels, if done correctly.

Just do it all in one hit...

Bosch 044 + Surge Tank setup

Bigger Injectors

Fuel Pressure Regulator

PowerFC (either version is OK)

Z32 AFM

Tomei Poncams

Bigger Turbo

Quality Tune...

BAM!

Personally I'd get rid of the AFM - heard a few stories of AFMs going wrong lately. MAP sensor is the way to go and it honestly doesn't cost that much more.

For 270rwkw I'd buy a nismo fuel pump, they have the added advantage of just plug and play, no mods required. You can get a 044 later and use the nismo as a lift pump. Thats if your gunning for 300rwkw+.

there is no need for djetro powerfc

the ljetro version is fine and will probably work better

so if i get this version i get rid of the AFM and instead use a map sensor?

plus money is an issue so i cant go all out i need to do it step by step or have a lean mixed car for ages...

thanks for help so far guys considering nismo pump now

Paul's a "card carrying" AFM lover. Either version in the hands of a good tuner will deliver good results. The critical part is the tuner you use and trust - speak with him is to which he prefers and recommends for your goals.

What turbo you going to use? Im just in the process of putting more money into the car with a GT30r IW turbo from Slide, Nismo 555cc, Tomei poncams, z32 etc! plus i already have the other mods! So im hoping to see around the same power figure! But i was just interested in what turbo you will be going for!

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
