Hello everyone.

I was reading a bit on this forum and trying some searching.

I'm thinking of buying a 2009 Skyline GTR or a Series II if it'll be available soon.

My question is:

What's the most power that can be had from doing a forced induction upgrade on full time race gas, keeping all factory accessories like A/C? Tranny upgrade is ok if needed. The car won't be driven too often, just weekends.

Is 800 RWHP possible. (600KW)

Thanks.

Yes

Thanks.

I don't do big jobs like this myself on my cars, what company would you recommend I use to do the work? If there's one in the USA great, if not who would you recommend in Austraila to give the car to?

I live in Miami, Florida.

So how much HP can these engines handle if I wanted to go more than 600KW?

You will probably spoil your warranty if you mod it!

I have a stable of cars with no warranties. Its ok.

I've really like the Skylines for many years, like 20 years to be honest. I pretty much mod everything I own, even my E55 Merc is modded. Here in Miami, its kind of a hobby to alot of us to have high hp street cars. The Skyline is a great piece of engineering and people here are starting to pop up with modded ones, so I think I'm ready to go for one, but it needs to be able to hang with the cars around here. And the cars in this area are no joke.

^^ US is leading the way anyway... the best tuning solutions seem to come from there ATM... the only exception is the haltech piggy back system but i still prefer the idea of flash based us based sytems.... similar to vcm suite etc... im sure once the factory ecu is FULLY unlocked it will be force to be reckoned with.

So can you point me in the right direction of a top shop here in the USA I can contact?

I'm prepared to go all out with a new GTR.

      I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though

      $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.

      Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.

      I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.

      I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
