I was just about to order myself a Link G4 Plugin today for my GTT! Im still keen on the Link but I'll have a look at these Adaptronics too, they didn't have anything for the GTT last time I checked.

really...no PFC even :blink:

..I know adaptronic have just released one....

Damn another free plug, I should be getting paid for this..

Do you even have all the supporting mods like FMIC, Fuel Pump, ECU, Injectors, Clutch, Diff, Oil cooler, Radiator, Coil packs, AFMs, a FULL fluid service from motor, gearbox to diff ???

Ive got a FMIC, Fuel Pump, Clutch, Coils, only a stock Dump Pipe

I'm fine with people not responding to this anymore unless you want to. I found some examples of what i was looking at and appreciate any helpful replies. I will continue to look into this.

thanks.

ECU

INJECTORS

FULL EXHAUST + HIGH FLOW CAT

EBC - BOOST CONTROLLER

The list will go on...

This forum is full of all the information you would need and there are some good examples in this thread...

The guys will have a joke and its simply the good SAU humour... But the info is already here for your taking so do some reading and good luck

Dont kill anyone :thumbsup:

So you are basically only half way there in terms of supporting mods expenditure.

Spend the $3500, you are going to waste on a turbokit you cannot make any use of, on the remaining supporting mods you've missed. Then you'll be ready for a turbo upgrade.

I used to spend around that crazy amount on pc gear... back before I got a car... rewmeber it took nearly a year to save up for an Nvidia 7800GTX...

took up the one PCI slot plus was so big it covred an express slot below it and it was so heavy with it's massive heatsink I had to make a bracket to hold up one side.

If you are that paranoid about security I imagine you would have a fairly sofisticated firewall possibly behind a proxy with a dmz?

listen to what these guys are saying about mods, like a pc, you can't get some top of the line i7 with a mobo that has onboard gfx and wonder why u can't play any games with a good res and top antiantalising, the system is only as good as it's worst/cheapest component.

eg your clutch, what brand/model? you may have upgraded it and it may only be able to hold 240rwkw and your looking at 300kw+ turbos.

I was just about to order myself a Link G4 Plugin today for my GTT! Im still keen on the Link but I'll have a look at these Adaptronics too, they didn't have anything for the GTT last time I checked.

they were only released a few weeks ago..

At 1499 for the adaptronic the link still probably represents better value for money at 1600.

I think if the adaptronic would drop its price into the 12-1300$ range though It would be a great buy

Have you tried calling GCG Turbos or somewhere like that? They'd give you best advice on what turbo kit you need!!

I'd suggest you get a PFC before you get a kit first but...otherwise your kinda working backwards! And at least 550cc injectors...you don't want your injectors working 100% duty at 4500rpm lol

And thats easy 5g their before labour costs....sucks doesnt it hahaha laughing-smiley-014.giflaughing-smiley-014.gif

It was more that the Adaptronic comes with a usable 4 Bar MAP sensor, rather having to buy a bigger external one for the Link, and it also supports knock control where as you have to buy the KnockBlock for the Link, so with that in mind it's well priced. Still I have decided to get the Link anyway due to the software it uses.

Yes It is still good value, I just think they may be a more popular choice if the price was a little lower.. ;)

The only place I think it loses out over the Link is the the lack of full sequential. But this wasnt a big concern to me..

Trent was going to to do some tests with mine when on the dyno to see how accurate the knock control was too..not sure what happened to that :unsure: I will remind him next time..

but the added map sensor is definately a bonus and I'm using the inbuilt boost control too which was is easy as hooking it up to the stock solenoid, so there really is nothing else to buy, well the only other thing I needed to buy was an IAT sensor for 40$ maybe they will throw that in if you ask nicely..:)

.

While we are talking turbo upgrades, how do u think this set up would go. I have a s2 R33 with FMIC, Cat back, Pod filter. so im guessing around 180kw at 10psi. So if i was to get a nistune or pfc, a kando TD06 20G internal gate ( i wanna stay internal, i also know about hypergear but i want a kando) and a walbro or tomei fuel pump and run 15psi it should put me up around 230-240kw ? (50kw gain) That a pretty cheap upgrade. Plus other bits and pieces like a custom dump and obviously a tune. I just read the stock injectors will flow enough at 15psi in another thread. im not after 300kw but just something that will come on a bit later and harder than the stocker without breaking the bank and fuel economy.

Stock injectors won't make it past around 230rwkw and even if they do, you'll be loading up the fuel system big time, maxing injector duty etc.

If all you're after is ~250rwkw then, as ARTZ said, get an HG. From what we've seen the Kando internal gate setups aren't fantastic (yet), these turbos only seem to come alive in an external gate setup and then they have potential for a great top end...but that's probably overkill for you, given your modest power goals and desire to stay IG.

No its what you do when you spend 6k on a computer and optimise every component for performance.. none of these posts are at all helping.

$6K?

I built a:

Intel 2011 Socket 6 core "K" processor

Corsair 16gig Ram

Asus z78 Mainboard

2 x SSDs in Raid 0

Watercooling

Nvidia card worth $600

Coolermaster HAF-X Case

Corsair 1150watt Powersupply

Total cost was $2.5k.

If you're spending $6k on a computer, and you're an IT expert, you should leave this site and save us heaps of trouble becuase soon you will be a skyline expert asking us why your car stalls after you have fitted a chirpy, twisty, shiny, flappy ATMO BOV.

    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
