Few Questions For My Next Few Mods

[_Ryan_]

Set a plan. Stick to it. SA- defects?

040, S15 injectors, GCG highflow as hypergear has line changes. nistune.

[-RBD2-]

My 040 was loud as f**k harts

and then again it was vapourizing fuel to the point were I had to crawl it home from the hills to the bay,so I pulled it out and went back to stock

fuel was so hot in the tank by the time I got it home I could hardly bear putting my hand in there to pull the cradle out

been talking to Adam bout all this

he knows what he needs to do in regards to budget and process

[M I K E]

^^^ something was wrong then lol

i wouldn't choose anything besides an 040 personally

and they aren't stupid noisy if you insulate them from the cradle - that's why there is rubber stuff between the pump and cradle with OEM setup

[-RBD2-]

Pump was fine, had it tested

was 40+ degrees that day and it just didn't want to play ball in the hills that day

Still confused here lol, I've got a set of injectors sourced, daka 550s need sum plugs for $60 but will cost my less than 400... I'll hunt for a good deal on fuel pump slowly... Doubt I'd notice the pump with my zorst!!

Spoke to hypergear, 960 for the hiflow, said my stock actuator will hate life after 15 psi, and should look at a wastegate controller??? WTF is this? Said he can sort these issues for an extra $200... What's the story here...

And what's this about lines not matching up

with hypergear??? They arnt touching them r they??

under $400 for a set of 550's is a really good find. i'd agree with hypergear about the wastegate actuator not coping too well above 15psi, thats over 3 times the level it was designed for, 5psi. wastegate controller?, maybe they mean to get a new wastegate actuator from them, it make sense for the price. i had to get one for my turbo upgrade and it set me back about $185, so not far off $200.

don't know about the lines though. you'd think if they where taking your turbo and highflowing it, it should bolt back up easy?? is that what hypergear said?

another thing that may be an issue depending on you target power level, is the AFM. if only around the 220kw mark to start with you might get away with leaving it till after everything else is installed. then when you go in for the tune just ask the tuner how close to the stock AFM's limits your getting. then you'll know for sure if it needs to be upgraded.

and just a couple things that happened to me with my upgrade. when installing new injectors i didn't want to split the plenum to get to the fuel rail, you can do the swap without splitting it but there is very limited space to pull the fuel rail back off the injectors. you should be able to get it back just far enough to do the swap though, i found it tricky but doable. i just removed as much of the small bits that are in the way as i could e.g throttle body, fuel lines iacv line etc.

my stock BOV started failing (blowing off during acceleration) at boost pressures of 14-15psi. had to source and aftermarket plumb back. blocking it off was bad, constant stalling and backfiring.

and at the moment i don't have a shift kit for the auto (happeing very soon ), my stock auto box doesn't like the extra power during full throttle gear changes. i have to back off to half throttle to let the auto grab the next gear before planting it again, it gets very annoying lol.

Take your wastegate actuator off and take it to bill at Ats,he will cut it and thread it With a fitting on the end,so that's it's completely adjustable

that's what I did and it's 40bucks and takes 10minutes

damn, $240/hr

[pipster11]

or find someone selling a blown rb20 turbo cos they have 10psi actuators and bolt straight onto r33/34 turbos

[-RBD2-]

40 bucks for an adjustable wastegate and a free chat with bill for advice and pointers is better than 200bucks for an actuator in my book

bill is the turbo messiah in Adelaide

I rang him to ask about the Rb20 actuators,he said you mite get lucky and get one with a tight spring,and if you get one with a sloppy spring,it's useless and not easily replaceable

[chef_stagea]

so ive ordered a walbro gss342 fuel pump... havnt got it yet ... but can someone quickly run me threw the instalation.

ive spoken to rodders about it and hes keep to give me a hand... it comes with a 32 33 34 mounting bracket aswell nb for 118 new!....

im going to look at this constant wire up thingo ive been hearing about... can someone lead me down the right path there

also im looking at z32 afm and ive come across a cop tail plug for the z32... it says its good for a 31 s14 silvias 180 32... is this going to work?? or is there a specific rb25 plug?

im guessing the going rate is around the 200 mark for plug and afm?

^^ wow quite come reading i need to do! lol!

[KiwiRS4T]

You need to

1. try using the search function

2. read the diy in the stagea section and also the skyline section.

You will find things like:

(walbro is simpler but you get the idea)

[chef_stagea]

so... just wondering if you guys can think of anything i may be missing bout to get my tune...

255lph walbro fuel pump

HKS 2535 turbo adj actuator

z32 afm

pod with solid intake

3" strait threw zorst

profec b spec 2 EBC

advan fmic

620cc siemens deka injectors

100% plumb back turbosmart Kompact BOV

shift kit

will be tuned with nisstune

there no point doing an exhaust manifold is there??

also going to do a better radiator i think and a bigger trans cooler...

[chuckie]

Adam what about Transfilter ,a remote OIL FILTER KIT ,same as Engine Oil set up but Trans oil ,Good luck ,

Cheer`s Chuckie.

[QWK32]

looks like you've got it all sorted. assuming your coilpacks are in good working order i'd just throw in a new set of spark plugs before sending it to get tuned. stock exhaust manifold will be good enough for the turbo you have chosen.

is this really a worth mod tho??

think i made a good choise with the turbo... i do a bit of towing and 100% street driving... so nice bit of pick up and good re sale

yeah am going to do that... get my .8 on .... coil packs are fine at the moment... its not going to change anything if i change them after the tune tho is it?

Well i think so as ANY FILTER ON OIL is a GREAT THING to have,& will help with TOWING,

As there`s no Filter on them,
