getting a few bolt ons for my GTR soon and i've purchased most of the parts.

Here they are

34 N1 turbs

trust dumps/fronts

PFC

cat

exhaust

JB clutch

bosch 040

sard 700 inj

THe last thing i don't have is a boost controller.

I haven't decieded between the turbotech one ($22) or a EBC.

Can someone explain the pro and cons of both and if the EBC is a better way to go, should i go for the apexi one or somthing else.

Thanks.

i've heard alot of good feedback about the turbotech boost vavles, like they come onto boost quicker and there very accurate. but i used to always get told that you should only use EBC's because they dont spike and you can see wat you've set your psi to wihout haveing to drive it and read ur psi off you boost gauge.

id rather the EBC but the cost of them compared to the turbo tech units is a bit much (im still an apprentice) so id get the turbotech boost valve.

dont know if that helps at all . . .

Anything up to 15 - 18 psi the turbotech will do the job just fine... i have been running it in my car on 10psi for quite sometime without a single spike... but my car is pretty much stock...

For larger power applications and high boost settings, a decent EBC is the way to go... the Greddy Profec II are selling for $390 delivered! Pretty cheap investment for an accurate boost control unit with incabin adjustment and setting...

The other option is to get a larger spring for the turbotech, which will hold high boost better.

I've seen both on a dyno, and the EBC is obviously better, but the turbotech does a very good job. EBC sat right on the set boost, the turbotech creeped 2psi over 4000rpm, no spiking though and good boost build. Hard to compare that to EBC though cos they were on different cars with different turbos

I've got the Blitz DSBC spec-R and yeah, very happy with it.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      Do the following first and get back to us. - Clean and verify your IACV - Verify for vacuum leaks/post MAF leaks. (Pressure test is the best and cheapest way) - Do you have a BOV with stock ecu/MAF? If so, remove it.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      Hey all, The skyline I have is stalling when the engine is at normal operating temp.  When starting it while it is cold, it'll run just fine.  I have replaced the battery (bad cell), I have replaced the fuel pump, fuel filter and clean the MAF sensor.  Any other suggestions?

      Thanks for all the information on this.  I tried ordering the parts from Amayama website and all 3 Solenoids are discontinued and not available.  Does anyone have any other websites to suggest that I could find the parts?   Separate issue-- I will start a new thread, but basically the vehicle is stalling when warmed up.

      It's unfortunate what Tomei USA has done to Tomei's name in general. I'm very weary of ordering parts from them now. I only order direct from a Japanse source (e.g Nengun). At least their logos are different, so you end up knowing what you have.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Update Issues 5 (plus #4) - 10 After making a claim about issue #4's missing part, DeAgostini Japan sent a whole new issue #4 and it arrived about 2 weeks after that. That was back in early March. It took another 4 weeks to receive issues 5 - 13 though. This update is for issues 5 - 10. Ove the 5 issues the front left suspension and most of the engine have been completed. The quality of the castings and fit of the parts is quite good, it seems better than DeAgostini's BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the Fast & Furious 2 movie, which (to me anyway) doesn't seem to have as tight tolerances or quite as accurate castings.  Each issue has a lot of info about the 1989 - 1993 Skyline range and other Nissan models from that era, but the focus is on the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo and the various racing it did in Japan, Europe (Spa 24hrs) and of course Australia. I've included some text translated with Google Lens in some photos and will add to them if there's anything worth including.
