Guys,

i'm "tossin:bahaha: " up what mods to do to my car R33 GTR. At the moment it's pretty stock "bar the cat back exhaust, pods & turbosmart bleed thingy valve". I have ordered the Power FC & Hand Controller and about to contemplate the following mods... what do you think, as I've heard various opinions from reputable performance shops.

PS: I'm not after qtr mile times, sprints etc.. just a reliable "every second" daily driver that goes a bit harder & breathes easier than stock.

Mods to go with existing - Pods, Bleed thingy Valve, Cat Back exhaust.

1. Power FC & HC (which tuner - In Vic)

- I know many will say ICE, but I was also told the man to see is Vinnie from Sti Dockland "x owner of BGT - AKA Hyper Tech - AKA Apexi King". Also told without software hand controller only accesses about 30% of the functions.

2. Front Pipe

- I know a good exhaust shop that's done most of my cars. Thinking of getting a custom made rather than Brand Name.

3. Cat

- Told the stock cat is excellent for my basic mods.

4. Heatshield for Pods & CAI

- Goes without saying hmmm.

5. Adjustable Cam Gears

- I'm a little worried here again hearing various opinions from tuners. Most say it's the best choice, ICE have re manufactured GTR Gears for 220 change-over. But I'm worried if there not centred correctly or done properly whether they could damage the motor.

Thanks

Do the cam gears.

But if you want to spend close to $1K on a couple of bits of aliminium thats up to you but most of the tuners can modify your standard cams no worries for alot less $$$ that you can then spend elsewhere.

The major reason why people recommend ICE (well why I do) is that not only do they do quality work but they will try and save you $$$ where they can so you can upgrade your car further faster. If guys can save you $$$ by doing something custom made rather than buying a brand name if in the end they will do the same job - then your an idiot to spend the extra $$$ IMO.
