Hey all, I ran my GTR at Hyperdrive the week before the SAUWA day so you wouldn't have seen me there....stats and mods in signature. Just wondering what I should do now to it for a bit more HP sauce? :P

it doesnt have a boost controller (currently setup to 11psi) or a PowerFC so they came to mind first, what else would be something I could do?

I won't be able to perform this yet, coz funds are-a-low and I have a trip to Bali organised for July. Just want to get a few ideas in and some general costs for product+labour to install....

cheers

Tom

:uh-huh:

I know the T3's cost the previous owner $1500 for the pair....and it has an aftermarket dump pipe too, I am not sure whether it is 3" or 2.25" off the turbo's but its 3" from the CAT back

ok, stupid question, what does that 1.2k refer too?

Nope, on special here at $1600 supplied,fitted, tuned with handcontroller and Aus warranty.

Cheers

Err , the one that fits your car. Just the base model, not the D Jetro.

These are brand new.

Cheers

the review on the Apexi that I found states that its a direct change of the standard computer and plugs straight in to the wiring loom

I like the price at $880 too, I searched and found that the retail cost is closer to $1500 for that model

The Power FC's are model specific so yes, we will get the one that fits straight into your car and is a replacement for the std puter.

The $880 2nd hand price will require tuning which is usually $350-$450 extra.

Our price is for a new unit and includes the tuning..

Cheers

  • 2 weeks later...

just thinking, ontop of a tuned PFC...what engine internals will be stressed?

I think Ive been told it will be the CAMS that are good to upgrade also, is that right?!. I probably won't get them done at the same time (unless its good to, then I will save a bit longer)

along with $800+ for new tyres, this car is gunna cost me a london-underground bomb....oh, below the belt, below the belt! ;)

    • yeah i agree paint match stops it from standing out so much, oh that's actually really good to know i was wondering if it would help with air flow now actually having an outlet in the bonnet. Will have to focus on ducting into and out of the radiator now to make the most of it.
    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
