best to check out the v-series skyline section. a large portion of the stuff here is more RB related than VQ.

however any general induction and exhaustion mods will reap good gains as most cars come with restrictive systems from factory.

Thanks for that , where is the v-skyline section ??

I believe the standard exhaust system for the VQ engined cars is pretty good from factory, limiting gains for aftermarket parts.

No there not very good at all, exhaust and headers will see good gains.

On the induction side of things all the jap tuners seem to stick with the factory airbox, panel filter and a 350z intake tube, where as the yanks all swear by the JWT pop charger (pod air filter with cold partition.

Personally i think mine went a little better with it on.. ill hopefully be doing a back to back dyno on tuesday should be interesting.

A computer or unichip with a good tune will also see good gains.

I saw some pretty good gains with my catback on the Z33 just by itself, equal to when I did the extractors and cats and had my Unichip retuned to suit. The catback was a lot cheaper to do, though.

The Popcharger is great for noise, but does sweet FA for power from what I could feel. You're better off with just a drop-in K&N filter, performance-wise.

Hey alan,

Just had mine on the dyno again with the pop charger on this time and a different exhaust and im 10kw's down across the board. The exhaust change went from cannons to tri-flows at the rear the rest remained the same, headers to 2 1/2" pipe, highflow cats and x pipe. Might look into a brand name exhaust down the track, i still hate the exhaust note currently, it sounds like a bloody honda... and i would like that 10kw's back...

Fark, that sucks. I'd want that power back too - its not like we started with that much.

I heard a Fuji catback on mxfly's Z33, and I really like that note it made. It had a distinct turbine-like sound to it, kind of like Holden V8s do. It sounded really good.

I don't know what he was running north of the catback, since the car was being returned to stock for sale, but it wasn't particularly loud either.

Hey guys, I THOUGHT I WOULD POST THIS UP.... im still under the cloud wether to go f/i or keep the vq as a N/A breathing machine...

After hours on the net browsing different options, ive come past this, its still preety new in the states and not many guys have done it yet.....

The main problem they are finding is that this set up genreates alot of heat -though a simple custom airbox could do the trick like the one below found in on an alfa(pictured below)...... i know F/I is the easiest way to get horsepower... though the N/A sound is one that i cant just let go of.. especially after i get these tomei headers...

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
