Okay so the more i read the more confused i am...

so im just gonna ask the masters to give me a hand...

Why is your username Joe and &33? Is it Joe and Ampersand33? Is it Joe and and 33? Do you stutter? Is it a typo? Is it relevant?

Again I remind you to read the above mentioned disclaimer.

Yeah, great advice already given, only thing I can add is depending what your power goals are you can consider getting a R34 GTT SMIC instead of FMIC. If you don't have high power goals then that is a great option. However in saying this, once you do a few mods the bug will get you so you then want more and will end up needing a FMIC.......

I have also wondered this. ;)

well my thoughts are that its a typo and he was meaning to have it "Joe and R33"......just my thoughts.....

ahh yes the power bug will bite you one way or another mate....so its proably better off going with a FMIC and not really worry about a SMIC.....when i was changing my smic to a fmic i was like WOW the FMIC is really really tiny compared to the FMIC......and if your going to boost it up then my advice which is what i am going to get done soon is get a electronic boost controller and a aftermarket fuel pump......and safely enjoy the boost to 10 psi and i personally wont go anything higher then 12 psi.....10 psi is a safe boost level and is more reliable

Joe, dont listen to these fools.

All you need is:

an atmo blow off valve - $150

4 inch exhaust tip (its the only bit people see) - $50

Huge sub and amp combo - $200 on ebay or similar

Chrome hubcaps (much cheaper than rims) - $40 ar Super Cheap Auto

and spend $60 on brand name stickers for your doors (Trust Greddy HKS etc)

All up $500 and youl'll have a fully sick ride.

Remember to drag off every car you see at the lights, keep the drivers window down and the sub turned up. With practice you may even master the art of driving with the seat all the way back and fully reclined. (chicky babes love this)

Dont forget racing stripes. Oh oh and DONT lower it whatever you do! Those stickers are about 5rwkw each at LEAST.

;)

There is nothing unsafe about 12psi and that is reliable too i had mine boosted to 14 drove like that for a year before it made funny noises

lol Guy so true

it really depends on the condish of the turbo i guess! a mate of mine has done the same as you, run it at 14 for over a year now and everytime i drive it still feels very good, no problems so far! unlike mine, the old owner must have boossted it and so! so when i was running 14 the bearing shat itself on the second day

if he goes all out and puts enough stickers on it, it will lower itself.

:D

Don't forget the mandantory LED lights for the windscreen washer squirters!

Thats another 2-3rwkw

:D

Oh ... and have a 'fake' roll cage made up with exhaust bends! :D

hahaha also there is cardboard estra wide spoilers and side skirts!!

hahahahaha

also with the name...

yeah i did a typo and i dunno how to change it back now... :D

PM one of the admins, im sure one of them will be nice enough to change it for you. Then again arent they all the greatest :D:D

Also, remember to have your right arm hanging out the window and left hand on the wheel at 1 o'clock staring down anyone that dares to look your way(yes I'm talking about that elderly lady over there)... makes you look sick... and looking sick = kw :D

and if your ever losing a drag against a VN, yell out "f**k the po-po", instant kilowatts, its like a NOS effect

but back to a serious note, there is MORE than enough information here to get you to the power you want.

but first, cooling and flow, cooling and flow.

    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
    • Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
