Help me with throttle body upgrade ! VVL - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

rbs14kouki · 12-30-2012, 09:44 AM

Im looking for a throttle body to go with my vvl swap !

I tried looking with the search option but nothing came up with the search option

- CX racing makes a 80mm throttle does any body have reviews on those ! ( i saw 3000gt guys having problem with theres leaking on boost)

- Hypertune and plazmaman is just out of my budget

- ross makes a nice one but its a 90mm

- ebay , s90 , pnt performance , ect !? Any feedbacks

The N15 one is too expensive. Best option out there in my opinion is the Era-1

SR/KA 72mm Throttle Body Kit | Era-1

Whats wrong with a good ol Q45 TB?

too big. slows throttle response and spool up because it doesn't match the rest of the intake tract.

Well i have a mazworks intake and precision 5858 ar.63 @ around 20psi

I wana keep as much as response as possible

I was leaning for a 70mm to 80mm because of that !

But if a 90mm will do the same ill go with a Ross 90mm!

big and the look of it is soso ! I know (form > look) but if i can , i dont mind paying 100$ more for a nice one !

Seraphim38 · 12-30-2012, 06:21 PM

Era-1. still the best choice for that setup.

btw, which intercooler are you going to use?

I considered the 5858 for my current build, but went with a GTX3076 instead. Some of the local guys have problems with PTE journal bearing turbos

If i do buy the precision its a BB 5858 !

My friend run's a jb 5557 on is ka-t and no problem yet but its only pushing 15psi
