^ only 166? Should have been much higher... the power of ECU for the SR, big gains

Power to weight also plays a part.

But meh, if he wants 200 for now, and then wants a bit more, plenty of room to move on ALL the stock parts.

Hell i made 250rwkw @ 12.5psi on the stock ECU without a drama

had stock on my gtst... then 185... then 265... soon to be be 300 with e85 when i get datalogit and a bloody e85 pump close by...

i'm now thinkin about a 33 gtr in around a year.... i just hope 350awkw will hold me :/

sellin your turbo kit to me yeah?

If its a GTR that u have.. why u wanna waste ur money on a "hi flow" cat???

the stock unit is extremely hi flow... gettin anything other than like a metal cat or magic cat is a waste of time.. :S

There's a really high chance he's got a compliance cat and not the Japanese GTR cat on it....(a quick check under the car will confirm :rofl:).

Yeah only 166; it was auto though so some drivetrain loss. I didnt have an ECU but did have aftermarket s/s turbo manifold.

Must say though that power to weight was great; I can really feel the big skyline required some revs to take off especially with the lightened flywheel.

Just to bring this old thread alive, for about 200-220awkw would anyone recommend a power fc d jetro over the standard power fc?

Also, is it worth getting a HKS, Apexi, etc. cat/exhaust vs some cheaper x force type brand?

From a little research I'm thinking an upgraded panel filter, down pipes, hi flow cat/metal cat, 3" exhaust and pfc djetro should be sufficent for now and should I be bitten by the bug for more power :( I don't want to have to upgrade stuff later. My theoretical maximum I would want to take it to is 300-330awkw (I know I know I say that now :))

1. no. regular pfc is fine. easier to install and much cheaper. just get that.

2. in my opinion yes. I like the japanese exhauts and think they are worth the money. they typically fit better, sound better and use better quality/grade material when compared to chinese made x-force etc. others will argue it makes no difference to performance. as for the cat, yes definitely get a good brand, metal substrate like a magic cat, or apexi, or sard or nismo cat. they will flow more.

    • Hi All, I'm based in Sydney and want to get hold of 4 stock R34 GTT wheel caps as pictured. Cheers
    • Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..
    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.
