hi guys just found a set of r33 gtr vspec turbos for $500 but will take $340 tonight on had 60000km on them what you think as a trial

No good mate, all the stockers are no fun. They break easy and cost an arm and a leg to install, so you are likely to be doing the job twice if you get em.

-9s are better than -7s, you should buy a pair of -9s off a one of the forum sponsors then get em fitted. You will need an ecu yes, powerfc or nistune are good for your application.

Without changing the injectors or AFMs the -9s will get you a tidy 280kw. With injectors and ecu (a lot of money later) you will get 300-330kw.

-7 = G't 2860

Thanks for advice & help from Steve-0 and Yavuz (aka Unigroup Engineering)

Bosch 044 fuel pump

Denso 700cc injectors

Tomei Poncams Type B 260/9.5

Tomei adjustable cam gears > advanced to get bottom end power from 3200rpm

Power FC D-Jetro

GReddy DSBC set at 20-21psi

Blitz Front Pipe

Kakimoto 90mm Mega N1 Premium Exhaust with hi flo cat

So many other comparable outputs on this thread on "Search"

-5 propellors recommended too as I was considering these.

This is bullshit...they should be covered by the warranty...wear and tear is items like brake pads and tyres...not friggen turbos. Speak to the MTA in NSW and see how you go from there....

Does the car have a boost controller etc. Chase this warranty up before you spend any money.

hi guys i got 2 gt2860 -7 on it works insain no smoke nothing all is good thanks so much for your help also it had a boost controler thats y they said its not covered as they dont know if i have stuffed around with it but im very very happy with the results now do any of u have adjustable cam gears in your car and are they worth it also what cams should i get i want it to be abit lumpy like a tuff gtr

You might want to invest in purchasing some full stops, because your post is quite difficult to read.

There is plenty of people using cam gears and getting good results. As Nismoid would say... Search.

You should be investing in a tunable ecu and a re-tune first though, as the -7's will flow better than stock so the tune will now be out considerably. Optimise what you have first, and tune it so its safe. Then look at Terry's list and start shopping.

Good choice man, but please dont drive the car hard until you get an aftermarket ecu tune. Cam gears get great results as most people who have them will attest but when you do them, do the timing belt too. It saves on labor and although it says to change at 100k, rubber does corrode and crack over time so for piece of mind, do that too.

...as in Post #23

Those Tomei drop-in cams 'n gears helped to put more area beneath the power curve = much less lag = more bottom end power

I can't stress enough how much a good tuner will get the best out of your car.

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
