hey guys i am after some ideas on what i should do next.

the car is a r33 s2 manual.

mods so far

fmic

bosch fuel pump

splitfire coils packs

highflowed turbo

greddy profec b

full exhaust

i am after a little more go. (not after huge power).

most of the mods that were done to the car were done because of faulty parts at the time.

I do have a budget of 2k to spend.

daily driven car.

any ideas would be helpful, I have a bit of an idea but I just don't want to waste money on mods that are not worth it.

experiences would be helpful here..

thanks rob

Possibly some sort of ECU to make the most your current mods. Check the classified, there are a few power FC's floating around for a 33 or possibly a VIPEC (do they have a model for a GTST?) which is only say $500 up the road of your current budget installed and tuned. Would add a little if not a lot more go, which is what your after.

You need a tunable ecu. Your next logical power mods would be bigger injectors and a Z32 afm. If you get a Link or a Vipec you won't need the afm and can just get some bigger injectors when funds allow or a good buy comes along. Set your adjustable cam gear at 4deg retarded - that should do until you get it on a dyno when you have an ecu.

im pretty sure it dosnt matter if you get a manual or auto ecu the code is rewritten to suit your needs any way. Because your car is a series 2 thereare afew little issues we have found lately with the z32 ecu. One was fixed fairly easily the other is causing false knock to be detected making the car run on knock maps, hopefully the issue will be figured out soon

    • Is rebuilding it even a thing? Where would the shop find parts for it? I looked at some off these local online stores for my r34 and suprisingly they had brand new aftetmarket ones for $600-800 I think. I guess r32 might be a bit tougher.
    • I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..
    • They do. The pale yellow translucent ones from Japan were .... I dunno. Useless? Whiteline and SuperPro are probably fairly similar. There's bound to be a range of different hardnesses amongst the dozens of options on the market. The simple fact is that the pineapples don't get up inside the bush at all. They just sort of exist in the space between the washer/bracket and the subframe's bush outer tube, and...exert a bit of force between them? Or something like that. I'm sure that with enough provocation, they will simply allow one to move wrt the other.
    • I'm not sure they came in different hardnesses? Going from memory only - I had set them up in the balanced setup. I also have poly bushes, so I have both poly bushes and pineapples. This is what my memory tells me at least. I'll have to take a look under there to be sure. The tramp was so bad that I managed to eject/kill a diff bushing, so those I know are stock. The tramp is bad enough that you are 200% sure you are doing severe damage to the car. It's not just chirping or vibration, it feels like you're hitting a speed hump/kerb 10 times a second. The issue has persisted between subframes! (I went from Hicas to non hicas subframe and replaced every bush a few years ago now) so I'm entirely lost. Every arm is factory.
    • Can recommend the Frenchys kit, been using it 2 years now with no issue, very happy with it.  Only thing for me was upgrading the thermo fan but I am super fussy on cooling.   Also interested in electric AC, partly for boot mount to have a clean bay and partly would love the idea of cooling off the car before i get in. The battery setup to do that might be tricky / expensive though.  Found this an interesting watch.
