after market fpr can be easily spotted. Sits on the end of the fuel rail usually..are u still running the std fuel pump? If so get that replaced before the FPR (which u wont need for a while yet.) Something like a Bosch 040

Hicas, just look under the rear of your car. It should have a steering rack bolted to the diff. If it does, look at the boot rubbers to see if they have been fiddled with. If they look new, it probably has brass shims under them, or look under the rear parcel shelf in the boot for a little black box wired to the hicas computer that says Tomei. Otherwise its std.

Ecu chipping..decide on how far u want to push the car in later mods. If u cant see yourself going any further get it chipped, but it will cost to remap the chip again later if u add say a larger turbo. A PFC is a good investment for full tuning the car regardless. Shaun does wonders with tuning them. Cam gears are ok, check the forums, or www.perfectrun.com.au

ok atm i have gtr fuel pump, cooler, e-boost, pod, will have rb25t on soon. then i want to go fuel pressure regulator, ecu chipped and re-mapped then up the boost... oh and bov after that! does anyone know a bov that flutters? i cant find any!!! as in like chi chi chi chi lol?

[pkblade]

Who have you found that is able to chip & remap the RB25's ECU? In the long run it may be cheaper & as effective to get a piggyback or stand alone ECU.

BOV's don't make the flutter noise...I'm assuming you mean the off boost flutter noise?? that's compressor surge. You can either run no bov or put any adjustable aftermarket one & set it at the tightest valve setting.

You probably wont need to get a fpr as yet. I wouldnt trust a 2nd hand gtr pump either...

What are the future plans for the car in terms of power? I pfc is a real good investment. Speak to your tuner or shaun at least and he can put u on a good path

Dont bother with a bov, u will get defected. A pod filter if u must have a woosh sound.

i basically want to get 200-220rwkw! and maybe 12 months later get 250-300 but i really want 220!!! what do u think i should do? whats wrong with gtr fuel pumps? i now mine is very loud hahaha but yeh wat u think will get me to 200-220?

[Cubes]

You'll need an adj. fpr for more than 190rwkwish. Depending on dyno.

Grab a nismo one from nengun or a trader on this site. Should see you through to 220-230rwkw.

GTR pumps are old.. BUt they can be good. Just throw a cheap Bosch 040 in it. More than enough.

[Bl4cK32]

I dont like GTR pumps personally because most of the time u are replacing the std pump because its old, and doesnt flow. I cant see the point of sticking a pump thats just as old on, only for a bit more flow. Id rather rely on a new 040.

At 220 u may be seeing the limits of the afm, so u might need a z32.

For those power goals (more so the future) u may need a pfc, and injectors.

yeppers.... i have a rb20det in my r31 and im gonna put a vg30ballbearing turbo on it, get a remap and run a z32 afm...

jeff from speed lab recon that should c me round 190+kws... i think from memory a remap by jeff is around the 500 mark but could be wrong..

i found my z32 afm from kansai, they were pretty helpful, also try the for sale section here and ns.com... hope that helps a little

[Cubes]

Please don't do the vg30bb on the rb20det. Go an rb25 turbo, much more average power, spools earlier and doesn't feel as lazy with the same peak power.

Most import wreckers should hav Z32 AFM on shelf. You might get lucky in the same respect with a PFC...........from what ive been told an RB25DET one can be used on an RB20 with a couple of wires changed around if you cant get an RB20 one. If you want an 040 new, most auto parts places sell em, second hand, shop around the forums FS sections

[Cubes]

I believe CRD do bran spankin new Z32 AFM's for around $300.

Motortraders can also do them for near that price.

With regards to the fuel pump look around here on SAU. Some of the traders sell them at an awesome price.

Slide has an Ap engineering pfc to suit the r32.
