*SEARCHING NOW.. my bad brain dead here**

aaaaaaaages ago i posted a thread about wanting heaps of response and rev, was told an apexi AX5 is the way to go..

so now i have one.. in the garage, sitting around.

at the moment i have

Dual stage boost controller

FMIC

Bov

Stock exhaust to Cat, nothing after cat. (yes not so legal *cough*)

stock clutch

SAFC (will be tuned while/after the turbo is/has been just being fitted)

all suspension has been replaced.

thats bout it i think.

things like injectors, fuel pump, Z32, etc are the things that im NOT sure about ill need

ill be basically taking the car to CRD and going 'here ya go, fix it to go faster :whistling:!'

well not quite, but u get the idea.

Hi mate, fitting the same turbo to my R33

I'd think about upgrading the clutch.

Also to make it a safer tune:

larger Injectors (not sure what GTT stockies are though)

Z32 AFM

Fuel Pump

Fuel pressure regulator

I'd personally go for a split dump/front pipe aswell and a high flow cat as the stock one is rather restrictive even with the stock turbo

yer i'll get a split/dump made for about $100 .. nice and easy :whistling:

the rest, i have no idea.. i have factory coilpacks too, should i get splitfires? ( i have the spluttering issue on/off at that 4.5-5.5k mark sometimes the packs themselves look fine though.. so i thought its the tune, and safc should fix it hopefully...)

Get a new clutch, get bigger 555 or 700cc injectors .. depending how much boost you want to run, a new fuel pump prob a walbro or a tomei one .. 275L/m or whatever it is.

But deff upgrade the fuel system, id also look into a oil cooler*

I'd also hunt down a Power FC or Haltec pc system, you will be able to run the injectors correctly for max responce and max reliablity!

you work fast dont you :S just saw your last post like a week ago bout the turbo :|

The coilpacks may look fine but i bet there shagged, mine were at farked 55000k's

Yeah fix up the exhaust system, and a fuel pump is a definate, + fuel reg, and z32 afm and a PFC at this stage, depend how much you willing to spend,

no need for injectors atm, stock ones with handle fine till about 240 250rkw...

bellmouth dump + hiflow cat + 3" catback pipe + muffler = $600 approx

bosch 040 fuel pump = $200 (SAU) plus fitting including 13.8V direct battery feed

nismo fuel pressure regulator = $170 delivered from Nengun

Z32 afm new = $290 (SAU)

tune of safc = $300

should get you a good 220rwkw with stnd injectors? see how the stnd clutch goes before you replace that perhaps......

good luck

    • The car revs up through the gears much better/faster now, and fuel consumption doesn't really seem to have be affected either on a Hwy cruise, which wasn't expected  The FAB9 intake manifold has been problematic sourcing though, I've contacted Plasmaman to ask about their intake, which you can get different runner lengths spec'd, and, their different options for throttle bodies  The only real physical drawback with the Plasmaman intake is how to connect it to my current OEM style airbox, as FAB9 make a OEM style back half of the airbox to suit the larger diameter throttle body, and all that is required is a 30°bend silicone pipe to mate the throttle body to the airbox Car also goes in for some exhaust work in a week or so to fit the biggest resonator they can fit clearance wise in the front pipe to help remove some of the drone, there isn't alot of realestate under there, a rough guesstimation is it will only be about 3-400mm long and maybe 90-100mm diameter, and with a 60mm exhaust that doesn't leave alot of space for the internal volume of the resonator to do its thing I'm thinking I may need to bin the "high flow" 100 cell cat for something a bit more substantial, yeah, and restrictive, like a 200-400 cell, to help, but, I have ample room for a really large bodied cat to replace the current one which has around a 4" diameter body I may look around in the recycling bins and see if I can find a massive newish cat that was "replaced" with some new full exhaust system that the local exhaust shop in Western Sydney is doing
    • Hahah look at that smile 😂 Just like those ones on IG where they compare the husband in family photos vs husband going fishing lol. I don't think I'll participate this time, clutch isn't in and also the last time I went there were too many numpties on the cruise sessions. Nearly caused a few accidents holding up people and a few guys initiating massive kerb to kerb drifts with heaps of cars right behind them. Not to mention, there were guys on the track session using it as a power cruise session.
    • Is there an actual website thingie for peoples who don't have Facebooks? Cheers
    • All Jap Day is coming up again! 13th of July this year. Are you going? Tickets go on sale on Wednesday 6pm. Please let Quang know as well. https://m.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1163155775853542   I still get shit from my wife for this photo because it is the happiest she has ever seen me. And it's not with her, it's in someone else's car.   Quang's EVO is sick, but that rotary wagon flying past was absolutely bonkers.
