Okay all....I'm new to this forum and I have a s14 with some basic mods. I think it's time for me to add new parts and I need some advice from all you sr10det experts. Here is what I have so far.......

SR20DET black top from s14 KoukiDown pipeTanabe exhaustGreddy boost controllerFMICKoyo Radiator

Thats about it as far as my under the hood mod.

What should I get next? I have about $3k saved up so far. Some tell me I should get fuel upgrade and z32 MAF......

Let me know what you all think!!!! thanks

upgrade the suspionsion and brakes you will still have money left over for the 300zx fuel pump and the z32 maf but being able to handle the power and stop it are the most important in my opion

once you start boosting over 7psi you are gonna want a walbro 255lph fuel pump..only about 110 dollars shipped..3,000 dollars to drop on performance on an sr is a good amount and you can do some good things with it. i would personally go with a larger turbo, larger injectors and an enthalpy tune..what you need to do is decide how much power you want and then go from there by choosing your turbo. you could get a gt2871r for 1200 injectors for nomore than 400 IIRC z32 maf you can find for 100-150 and an enthalpy tune is 500. thats 2350 and then you have money left over for cams and a greddy intake mani and you will have a really fun, fast car.

I actually have Tein HE suspension with Z32 Brakes.....sorry, I forgot to mention that. I think I should upgrade fuel system and MAF as well. Then a turbo upgrade and computer. thanks for the info.

i dont see any point in upgrading your fuel and maf seperately and then turbo and ecu..for one you must have a retune after upgrading maf and fuel and for two it wouldnt really do you any good without upgrading the turbo too

Okay, I guess upgrading the turbo is the first thing I should buy huh? but if I do get a turbo, I have to buy fuel upgrade.......right?

what im saying is not that you must put a turbo on first before fuel upgrades and a z32 maf...but that you should put a turbo on with larger fuel injectors and a z32 maf all at the same time as well as a rom-tune because thats needed. What bigger fuel injectors do is allow for more boost. if you put bigger injectors on with a t25 you can boost more but then your going to go past the t25 effciency so theres no point you see what i mean? thats why you put it all on at once and not seperately..and a z32 maf is so you can go over approxiamately 280hp because thats where the stock sr maf maxes out and you have drivability problems.

I see.....I guess I'll buy all at once. Is this Enthalpy ROM Tuning good? I have never heard of this......but I am still new to this scene. Where is good place to buy this turbo and the rest? thanks for the help.

enthalpy is the absolute best. http://www.rs-enthalpy.com as far as the turbo just search around on the internet..type in gt2871r in google and the injectors i believe deauscworks are the cheapest not sure of the exact spelling on that.
