wheres a good place to get a nistune? im surprised no one mentioned injectors..or is that pointless untill hunting done more power in the future?

sorry guys i only asked for a stupid number like 5 mods cause of budget limits :(

p.s if i were to set my boost at 10psi(stock turbo/r34 gtt smic) would a boost T do the job?

thanks for the feed back so far guys

Injectors would be like number 6, along with fuel pump. The others mentioned are the mods to start with because without those injectors are pointless. Why would you need them without the extra power/need for fuel?Yes a Boost T would do fine.Just do some searching on this forum, you'll find endless threads about reputable workshops, what mods to do first, what gains to expect, info about ECU's etc.

1. put a built RB30 bottom end on

2. build head/cams

3. put a correctly sized turbo on

4. injectors

5. OIL

Thats on the mota, then the ECU, then the fueling, then the tune, then the drivetrain, then the suspension, then the brakes, then the tyres, then the cooling (i/c oil cai)

And then, and then, and then

Welcome my friend.

iv come to realise that the mods never end do they haha

yeah i might leave the injectors later once im keen on more power but i might just boost to 10psi and get some new spark plugs

once iv boosted should i get a tune done or not really needed??

ok, cheapest decent power available: :)

1: gcg highflowed turbo - 2nd hand - $1000

2: turbo back exhaust - jjr or similar - $1000

3: turbotech (not turbo smart) boost tee - $50

4: china spec fmic & piping kit - $300

5: nistune - $800

6: clutch - exedy single plate button $500

7: diff - welded - $100

ok, so for $3750 or thereabouts you can have ~ 230rwkw and a fun car to drive. add coilovers for around 5 grand that's pretty sweet.

injectors, z32 afm and fuel pump could be added to this later on for around $1500 and you will have ~260rwkw

  • Like 1

For the fully sick individuals:

1) paint brake calipers red (+25rwkw)

2) flower stickers on rear window (+5rwkw per sticker)

3) fake turbo noise clip-on for exhaust (+50rwkw)

4) Neons (+35 rwkw per item)

5) 22" China spec chrome dinner plate rims (+90rwkw per wheel)

Or

Sell the car & buy a Hyundai Excel, do the above mods to it for the instant over 9000kw

For the normal people:

1) turbo back exhaust + high flow CAT

2) high flow panel filter + stock air box or POD with enclosure

3) Intercooler upgrade

4) Boost controller (manual or electronic)

5) Some sort of engine management + tune

this sounds goood, since im on a cheapish budget...but i might get a jap intercooler since iv heard alot of people complain with the chinese ones.

quick question whats the pros and cons of getting my cat high flowed??

    • It's excellent but I'm still breaking it in so I'm not 100% sure where it'll end up. I would say it's about 15% heavier than stock and the smoothness of the slip zone is quite progressive but you need to be a little patient compared to stock or it'll bite hard and stall. Stock I got away with absolutely horrid clutch control. Like I said before I couldn't even tell where the clutch would grab when it was stock so releasing way too quickly without enough revs it would just slip and the revs would drop lower than ideal but that would be the end of it. Currently there's a bit of a nasty clutch judder if I don't apply enough revs + find the exact wrong point of the slip point in the clutch pedal but it feels like it's slowly resolving as I drive it more. I would not recommend the competition clutch unless you really need the extra clamp force. I think this clutch combined with the Nismo operating cylinder is going to be exactly what I want. Enough bite that you need to remember the release point to avoid stalling or rough shifts, but progressive enough that it's not hard to drive by any means and not heavy at all. I tried a "super single" clutch on my friend's 997.2 Turbo 6MT and that was absolutely horrid. It runs an electrohydraulic power steering pump for the clutch power boost so there's zero feedback in the clutch pedal and there was a horrific clutch shudder well after break-in due to the lack of marcel springs or hub springs in the friction disk. It felt like the slip zone was the thickness of a single toe twitch as well so it was almost impossible to avoid stalling it unless you gave it a ton of revs and just dumped the clutch instead of trying to be smooth with it. I was terrified of pulling out in front of traffic. I have also tried some kind of "super single" on an EK9 and that makes this twin plate Coppermix look like a stock clutch. Releasing the clutch pedal even slightly too quickly feels like you're getting rear-ended. The pedal is extremely heavy as well and there's no vacuum assist like the GTR.
    • Yeah, well I was probably way underguessing the $300 figure anyway. Just multiplied a "normal" by 4 for the purposes of pointing out it's not cheap, particularly if it has to be repeated.
    • We have an alignment shop out here that does what you're talking about but he wants like 800 AUD a pop. DIY is "cheaper" but once you start accounting for the value of your time I'm not sure it's worth it.
    • The main catch phrase for any car is "the eye of the beholder", and "personal tastes and preferences" And as for the plastic "flares", I honestly think they look cheap and tacky, and I cannot see them aging well, maybe if they were body colour they might look better to my eyes, but, I would still prefer it the were more like the older WRX STI models that had the wider body metal panels In saying all this 5hit, I wouldn't buy a new WRX again, even if it had the wide body metal panels
