Coming to you all the way from
Australia, Go Fast Bits is a name synonymous with sport compact performance
parts. Rather than creating options for the exhaust or engine, GFB instead
focuses on support components that highlight those areas. The brand features a
comprehensive line of blow off valves, engine pulleys, short shifters, and
wastegates. There are legions of drivers who remain loyal to the products GFB
is responsible for and it is evident on dozens of competitive racing circuits
the world over. While Go Fast
Bits may be from “down under”, their performance accessories are over
the top in terms of quality.

| Go Fast Bits TMS Blow-Off Valve |
A big part of the GFB way is keeping a look
out for boost pressure. For car owners who like to punch the throttle, blow-off
valves are a critical part of the equation. Mounting air pressure can become an
issue when your engine is under constant duress. The throttle body needs to
remain healthy so your car can zoom around without restriction.
Go Fast Bits blow-off valves take all
the boost that is built up and releases it. The result? Your engine is able to
produce with more conviction, the exhaust hums along at a higher level and best
of all, the engine is protected against catastrophic failure. But wait – that’s
not it. You can grab a blow-off valve that gives your car a hungry underground
sound that opens up a whole new level of attention. Whether it’s the GFB Mach 1 or
the “Respons”, you can have that “whooshing” noise others notice on the street.
There are plenty of other options as well, depending on what stage your car is
currently at.

| GFB Lightweight Pulley Kit |
Reducing weight, any kind of weight,
always helps a car unlock a little extra power. So what happens when the weight
you remove is in direct relationship with engine output? More horsepower
potential! Go Fast Bits engine underdrive pulleys come in different options and
the one thing they all have in common is a decrease in rotational mass. Their
pulleys are smaller and lighter than the OEM pulleys, which means they draw
less overall power.
Instead of being made of clunky steel,
you instead get sleek, lightweight aluminum that is both strong and
high-performing. You can also get specific. There are pulleys available for the
alternator, water pump, and power-steering. They come in full kits, as well, so
you don’t have to sweat skimping on one to save on another. Go Fast gives you
the ability to do a complete overhaul. And since these are underdriven pulleys,
there is more available punch since they rotate slightly slower compared to the
original factory parts. By themselves, engine pulleys
do not initiate more horsepower. What they can do is make more HP eligible to
be distributed to other areas of the car where that power can come in handy! Plus,
you will notice hitting gears (especially on the lower end) to be smoother and
more responsive than before.

| Go Fast Bits Short Shift Kit |
In an STI or Nissan Skyline, the
transmission is your guide. It’s like a navigation tool. It gets you where you
want to go and moreover, helps you get there quicker. If you happen to be a
competitive racer on the track or in rally cross, it is even more crucial. You
need to hit gears without worrying about overcoming shifting distance or
hitting a snag. That is precisely what short shift kits are designed for. Go
Fast Bits knows how important it is for you to be able to have a handle on
things and going from one gear to the next faster can be a big help.
Short throw kits are the missing piece
in the puzzle performance drivers need. The ratio for gear changes is cut
considerably, allowing for much quicker shifts. This is noticeable especially
going from 3rd to 4th and back down. What will you
notice? For starters, you won’t lose acceleration at a precipitous rate, which
happens under stock settings. Secondly, the responsiveness your car will emit
gives you better control on the track. Is this something your sled needs to hit
the next level? We’re guessing it is.
Wastegates
 |
| Go Fast Bits EX50 Wastegate |
Go Fast Bits knows that the OEM
wastegate is not meant for handling all of that extra boost your souped-up ride
is capable of throwing. Their solution is opening up the ports and lengthening
the springs to account for the increased pressure. Enter the EX50. The EX50 wastegate
is one of GFB’s most talked-about offerings. This device helps keep boost in
check by restricting the exhaust that flows through the turbo. Pressure remains
balanced and flow is opened up.
Each GFB EX50 wastegate features three
primary pieces – the outlet port, inlet port, and the pressure actuator. Thanks
to the company’s insistence on using top-notch materials, the stainless steel
valve body and aluminum housing can stand up to the most extreme elements and
still function without missing a beat. There are also three springs that help
regulate PSI levels, giving you the power to achieve custom settings for each
of your adventures. If you have went through the trouble of tossing in some
high-performance exhaust parts and other hardware to give your car some added
pop, an EX50 wastegate brings it all together with convenience and safety.
Whether you own a WRX, EVO, GT-R, or a
370Z, it can be tough finding top quality accessories that give your engine the
support and punch it needs. And doing so while keeping an eye out on maintenance
is also a priority. Go Fast Bits specializes in providing parts for compact
performance enthusiasts because they are drivers first, engineers second. All
of their products are tested in advance, so you can be sure their fit and
function is at the peak of the industry.
