At this stage later this week I'm having the power fc, ebc and cam wheels installed and tuned (gtr) I have full exhaust and k&n panel insert. What else do you think I should do at this stage with these mods? Oil air separator maybe?

CAS will be doing the job.

thanks

Simmo

clutch is done, will most likely do oil air at the same time.

I still have standard turbos, so will probably keep the boost around 18 psi, fuel system should be adequate afaik.

:confused:

dont think so, he asked "what else would you do at this stage"

IMHO, if you have all these mods, its probably time to learn how to make th most of them.

18 PSI is too much boost - you will either break your turbos or break your engine.... I hope it will be your turbos cause it will be cheaper to repair .

I like Duncan's recomendation.

Won't have much money left then hey?

Ceramic turbos should be limited to 1 bar or so.

If I had a GT-R, my first option would be a HKS electric torque controller.

But basic suspension mods like adjustable dampers, pineapples would be nice.

T.

Suspension, wheels and brakes are done. Straight line performance has been the last thing on the list, although I'll be reviewing the suspension, I'm not completely happy.

CAS know how to charge, but can you recommend me someone that will do a better job?

driver training? You don't need this when you have a gtr, a gtr will teach you how to drive, I swear my car talks to me!

thanks heaps guys.

Done

I'm very happy with the results and the service from CAS

I went in with 170kw @tw @17psi in the morning, and in the afternoon I had 215 kw @18psi.

...and everything happens earlier, its so much nicer to drive!

thanks

Simmo

Nice to see you have some quality mods on my old car Simon:D

Check my sig for where we are at with mine.

btw , Micko with another of my old ones is punching 400rwhp with just a pair of 2530's and a Power FC.:);)

That should get you thinking.......

Hehe

Cheers

Simmo, just a few questions....R u running a single-plate with ur new clutch, R u on the stock cooler? U should be around 400 plus hp @ the fly with this set-up (Very nice! ) I wouldn't worry about bigger injectors and a bigger fuel pump till you go the GT2530s.:uh-huh:

mmmm 2530's

Simmo

The Nismo 581's I bought from Chris Salas ( and had to o/haul )

If I keep the car , will prolly wind up the wick to 1.3 bar and see what she does. The 550cc injectors are at 70% but the pump is starting to feel it...

Cheers

Ken

Yeah still using single plate, not sure how long it will last but seams fine so far. yep stock cooler, stock airbox with kn panel. I calculated roughly 390hp flywheel, not ready for more yet, everything happens so much faster!!

you have a gtr coming yeah?

Cheers

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
