I don't think gearbox is a major issue with skylines+POWA! unless you are really unlucky and its been crunched in the past and the synchros are on the way out. First this is decide what you want the car for street, track or a bit of both. The easiest way to make your Skyline smile a bit wider is a high flow turbo, increased boost to a respectable level and maybe some extra performance bits like upgrading the fuel system and computer. With the track in mind definately look into mild setups in the areas of suspension, wheels+tyres and brakes unless you plan on heavy track usage.

//ctrl+c, ctrl+v into all noobie 33 owner threads :D

Over 400 & no dramas :D Read an artice in ASM a while ago about an s14 with about 480rwhp, went through 3 or 4 s15 boxes before putting one in from a 33 & problem solved.

the majority of high hp silvias ive seen have s13 5 speeds and no worries

in regards to teh r33 box you should have no worries

its not till you start going really serious like 60o-700rwkw when you might wanna consider maybe a OS Giken CrossMission gearset or even a 6 speed holinger, but ur looking at around $50k plus for a holinger.....

    • The best part of my setup is, we only have two sites. Our head office where I'd put every thing has plenty of internet capacity. We're on a 200/200 dedicated fibre. Even better, there's only like 6 people in the office at most, and the other office has 2 people in it (likely 3 soon). The majority of our work is in a custom piece of software, as it is part of the backend of the system we provide to customers. For our arrangement, on prem would be wayyyyy easier, and a VPN tunnel site to site is easy for me to manage. Scaled at many many sites, or quite a few hundred employees it's starts getting a bit different for all people outside the head office. However, everything in the cloud becomes worse for the people who operated previously at the site that held the servers, as now they're at the mercy of their internet, and not GBPS internal network (f**k the idiots who hook a desktop PC up on WiFi or permanently sit at a desk using a laptop and don't go remotely with it).   It really does come down to the business needs and structure as to what is best. For us, 365 is mainly being moved to for office apps, moving email from Google to Exchange, and setting up "Active directory". Otherwise we have a ticketing system with support that runs on our own cloud system, or the sales process sits in a CRM we pay for. My biggest push back for having most of the shit turned off and saying no when people want new shiney things is "that won't meet our security requirements, or efficiency gains, so all you're requesting is money spend to open us up to security issues, or to make our staff less efficient" Which is funny when one of our core values is "To do more, with less"
    • Think of it as a fancy iFrame with the auth passed through to PowerBI as you're already authenticated logged into Teams   I'm the complete opposite, I hate everything on Prem, it's slow as shit, you need VPNs to get anything happening, then when you want on-prem DBs to talk to say PowerBI you need to install/setup data gateways to essentially VPN back into your SQL instance. I suppose from my perspective, on-prem sucks, but from an infrastructure perspective, your environment is somewhat air gapped to the web via your firewall(s), etc.   The curse of knowledge, the more you know the more you suffer. Farken philosophical shit.
    • Would you mind uploading the pics again in your steps?  It’s not showing up. 
    • Wherever you ask them to. I had one added to the crossover pipe near the BOV as well as the hot and cold sides of the intercooler piping to provide greatest flexibility in measuring temperatures post-turbo. I have the IAT installed in one, and bungs in the other two.
