Hey guys..

Just after some clues on what would be a good next upgrade.

I have a couple grand saved and was thinkin either between a Apexi SAFC or

FMIC or turbo back 3" hi-flow cat exhaust??

What you think I should do next to get the most out of my RB25DET

My mods at the moment are: Apexi Power Filter, 3" Cat back, GFB plummed bov, turbosmart T boost control.

I got the front strut brace, I'm thinking about taking care of suspension a little later down the line.

Im looking to pump more power out of the RB25 then to keep it on the ground I'll look at suspension.

Which one?

1. 3" turbo back exhaust ?

2. FMIC?

3. Apexi SAFC?

4. or any other ideas?

id definately be going for a good suspension set-up to help with the launches and getting the power to the ground.

my 2c

What kind of suspension setup would you be looking at for for the runs?

And how much would I been looking for a decent setup?

I dont really wanna push more than $1k on suspension but if you guys could give me the rough idea on what I'd be looking for.

a bit of topic but i was wondering performance wise if a hi flow cat peforms better than a gutted stock cat or vice versa. In regards to suspension, i would personally go lowered king springs accompanied by bistein shocks which would set you back no more than an 1k brand new as oppose to 2nd hand jap suspensions.

Can anyone else point me in the direction of some springs and shocks?

I dont just want aftermarket suspension just for the f@rk of it..

I'd rather spend a lil more but no im getting the quality and right bang for my buck on the strip.. u know?!?

What does gutting the cat involve? Isn't that what you do to make dim sims :)

    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
    • yeah, there's a country that recently started importing Skylines, I blame them.
    • I don't have a printer, but could at least attempt to make a printable model.
