S15 CLUTCH...........TIME TO CHANGE


Really heavy flywheel...dual mass dumper fly.....but too heavy!!


It time to change clutch!!........most of S15 are more than 80000km on the clock..Especially this car has done more than 100,000k without changing clutch..well done!!?

So what is the option........NISMO or??...........in this case, Because of main use of this car is street, we choose EXEDY sports clutch package, comes with flywheel, disk, cover and bearing.
It almost driving like factory but of cause it's heavy duty clutch!


Comes with fancy!? pink colour cover, disk and flywheel.


change bearing as well!!

It will make little noise from gearbox, because of solid flywheel, but no problem for the performance at all!!! Good one.(^_^)

R35GTR.BRAKE.......still STANDARD???


Big brake but...still standard?!


After hard braking......

R35 standard brake system is huge.... but It does'nt mean good enough for race track use.....
After few laps of hard brake session.........brake system was crying.........check disk and pad... c..cracked...already.



We changed pad only but....We think change both in same time will be ideal. (^_^)

STRENGTH OF STANDARD PISTON

One car turned up for tune.....................but....something wrong!!! Not much power!! And engine is shaking bit............Lost comression or?? Let's do the compression test anyway!
As we expected!!?? one of the cylinder has just over 60psi very low compression .......But why???
Leak test .......................... leaking(*_*)" Need to open up engine to check what is wrong?

This is the consequences of...........................may be over boost??? or just unlucky???
What is the limit for standard piston............boost and horsepower???
Never had a problem with up to 1.2bar.......even 1.4.....

We found something inside oil sump!!???


Go for forged internal!!!!

SUBARU IMP with LINK PLUG IN.....!!


Exchange is still not good ............So....any alternative for ECU?........Well why don't we try some local product??? If cheaper and good, there is no reason not to use it!
Link ECU has plug in ECU for this vehicle............plug in!!!! I like this sound!....PLUG IN....NO MESS!!


As you can see there is no Air Flow meters.


Plug in but still you need to install MAP& AIR TEMP sensors.


Software is easy to use........... anyone can set it up yourself!???............but highly recommended to tune by professional for full tune................Base map is base map!!??

We have tryed many car so far......
Well so far so good........Definitely The link has improved a lot.

POTENTIAL OF STANDARD BOTTOM END....


ANOTHER BLACK 34!

This car still has standard bottom end( only 20,000km)piston, crank and rods.........but we changed Tomei cam, head gasket set, baffle........... GT2860-5turbo,extention pipe,and intercooler piping that's it!!!



Z32 AIR FLOW X2!! Looks bling bling!!
Still run with Z32 air flow meters.........................looks bling but standard engine??


POWER F/C....... 700cc
Recommend to use air flow meter for street use....................feel better!!


POWER.......................


BOOST, bit too much!!??

We tryed high boost........1.55bar.......not recommend to use all the times but just for Dyno run!??
Anyway 380kw at wheel 1.45bar...........345kw 1.20 bar of boost........... enough and safe for street use ...............very good!! !(^_^)!
