Don't run the standard Nylon/Ceramic tuby at more than 0.85 bar

You might get away with 1.0 bar for a short time, but it WILL spit the exhaust wheel out and probably suck the rest into the engine, I have seen the results

I had heard that, thanks for confirming Geoff

The car has a few mods already including....

HKS F Con engine management (pain as APT cant map it

)
HKS induction kit
HKS Intercooler
HKS coil over suspension
HKS dump valve
Few cosmetic bits incl 17" bronze Volk alloys

:smoke:

Edit: spot the mistake earlier, logged in as Drifter :roll:

I'm going to steal your seats :lol:

Seats are nice, even for a skinny git like me

He's already looking at new wheels

Theres a Red S14 in APT at the moment (belongs to the SXOC chairman, Ken) which has 18" Black Motegi Touge wheels. Expect to see a nice set of Volks on my S14a in the future :lol:

Hi Matt. When i first upped my boost to 0.8bar with a few other mods, my GTT was Rolling Roaded at 320bhp. The standard injectors on the GTT are 330cc. So going by the rough guide that with a 6cylinder engine, each cc of injector roughly supports 1bhp, at 0.8bar, the injectors getting very close to maxing out. I wouldnt recommend running 1bar on standard turbo unless you get your fuelling checked out to make sure youre not leaning out......and even then, most/many Skyline owners dont recommend more than 0.8-0.85bar for daily use due to the standard turbo internals (ceramic exhaust wheel and nylon compressor). The choice is yours of course......some owners report running more than the 0.8bar with no issues, others have had the turbo blow and worst case needed engine rebuilds.

Hope this is of use to you mate.....bet you cant wait to pick it up

Edited to add: Doh, missed page 2 of this thread and see Geoff has already said what ive posted :oops: Car looks awesome mate :thumb:

good advise there.

the last thing you want after just getting it is an engine failure.
