OK to start with here are my upgrades before the Piggyback.....and also a big thanks to the all guy's at Envy imports for putting up with me today.

Powerduct(lol)

Air Fliter Element

Highflow GT30/71 with Garrett BB set

Dump pipe

Manual bleed valve

Standard tune is shown in Green.....the Standard ECU was taking over the piggyback at 5,750rpm.....hence the abrupt end at 164KW's....if it ran all the way to 6,500rpm's it would probably go to 170kw's.

Dyno tune is in Red. PSI has been lifted to 18psi but still bleeds off to 15psi. Response has only been shortened slightly out of the hole. Power is delivered a bit smoother. The biggest problem I had was how much power was lost through the standard intercooler after a run(approx 20-25kw's). The other small problem was wheel diameter.....the non AR-X's will always make more power because of this. Fuel economy is awesome... normally I get in between 5.8 to 6.2....a 50km run in peak hour saw 8.8 and that was with a couple of squirts. Oh and no problems at all with fuel.

So upgrade advice before tune with the mods above.....a good sized intercooler(does not need to be huge though) and a good electronic boost controller and smaller diameter wheels.....then you may see 210 to 220KW's everytime

nice!

after going for a drive in Dannys the other day i cant wait to get stuck into modifying the m35.

hows yours going with the ecu and transmission?

i think you've confused me about the "the Standard ECU was taking over the piggyback at 5,750rpm" bit..

Transmission is fine......just gotta make sure I put in the right fluid in future though :)

Don't worry...I am just as confused as well!....but thats what I was told.......we never did another run with the standard ECU settings so this is the only one I could show and give you a ruff idea of where we came from.

So you hit your target of 200awkw then (or am I reading it wrong?).

If so... Very nice mate! Well done!! I guess the turbo makes all the difference... who would've thought?

Already have a custom FMIC template designed by PWR which will suite the M35's quite nicely I think... but at $850, it won't be going in any time soon. :)

Again, great to see your results... No us high flowers have something to aim for :)

I had a similar problem with the Emanage, the ecu would kill power early if something was out. It may have been the airflow meter?

So when are you getting the boost controller...:)

Must be quick now, how is the gearbox taking the power?

Boost controller will be a while.....and the gearbox should hold for a good amount of time I hope.....if I buy anything else it will be an intercooler(sway bars and Nismo stickers on the way)

My problem at the moment is that my wife has no idea that I have received and already spent my tax return.....I am so dead when she finds out how much I got back :) !!!!!!.....whats the worst she can do?......take the sex that I am not already getting off me?????.......or then again she might sit me down and make me listen to her :)

I'd say f**k your wife, it's your money after all. Well that's what I said to my bitch at least.

Gold!!!!! :) ....does your wife get on these forums much??? :)

PS. 5 minutes away from leaving work from my first real squirt with no traffic.

lol craig let us know how it goes :)

sorry no luck....bugger bugger bugger.......followed all the way down Beecroft RD by police only to be pulled over at Pennant Hills shops and breath tested.....it's a conspiracy!!!!

Dammnnnn

im really REALLY jealous now. i want to break my turbo and install a hiflow and be forced to put the emanage on lol

Me too - despite the expense, I'm kinda *hoping* for a reason to install an HKS GT-RS on my s1 C34, then turn it up to about 15psi.

It's already got around 167rwkW on 7psi and 184rwkW on 10psi, so 200 at ALL wheels shouldn't be too far off!

Mods so far:

- Walbro fuel pump;

- GReddy FMIC;

- APEXi PowerFC;

- GReddy Profec-B Spec II boost controller;

- Bell-mouth front/dump pipe

- high-flow catalytic converter

- 3" exhaust

I'd say f**k your wife, it's your money after all. Well that's what I said to my bitch at least.

She was prolly interstate. If she really finds out you will be intestate. :)

Which intercooler are you looking at? Full kit or custom unit??

The worst she could do is have her mother move in for "moral support".

1. Indeed. Isn't that part of the deal?

2. Yes. Yes it is.

3. In those words? Suuuuure.

    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
