Hey guys,

im in search of 400awkw in my r32 gtr i am curious tho as to how i would go about making that kind of power without having to much lagg to go with it i am wanting to stay with twins not go a big single for response reasons( i believe it to be correct that 2 smaller twins will get on boost before 1 large single? ) any ideas and/or suggestions would be muchly appreciated

thanx

depends if thats what the parts are going to cost labor will be done my myself and my mechanic so no labor costs was hoping that will bring it down substantially

i was thinking mayb twin 2835r's on custom manifolds with the proper internals and injectors etc but i am unsure and was after some feedback or ideas on what to go with and when it comes to internals which would be best for reliability purposes?

thanx

400 - t04z

search on "t04z"

your gonna need a full rebuild, with at the least a set of good pistons and all the other stuff that goes into a solid motor... and they aint cheap.

Then comes all the extra bits

fuel pump

injectors

ecu (plus addition sensors, depending)

afm's (depending)

clutch etc etc

thats just to get started aswell

Maybe have a search of the RB26 dyno thread too, wont hurt to have a read

My car would pretty much fit the guidelines for that, T04Z on a fully built motor. Comes on quicker than standard turbos did when it was stock.

(PS: Will be for sale soon... engine is 1000km old :rolleyes:, wouldn't wish the costs of modification on anyone, its a long road!!)

if u really wanted to u could stretch 2530s to 400kws. do u plan on running high 10secs?

im planning on using 2530s on a later date keep the twin theme and work on response rather than power. thats wat GTR is about

There is so many setup available now that will provide responce. The only question here is will they provide the target of 400kw? There are single setups and twin setups that will do the job, you will firstly need to choose what type you would prefer as there is no point suggesting a single turbo if you want a twin setup or vice a versa.

As for engine capacity, well if your building a whole engine then you can look at possible increase in capacity, if not then it should not be discussed, what would be the point as you don't have to increase capacity to acheive responce & 400kw.

Twin setup - HKS 2530's are well known for responce and high HP, they'll hit the 400kw+

Single setup - T04Z (HKS or Garrett) Also well known for responce and high HP, seen 468kw with these.

well the shopping list atm looks like this :

arias forged pistons

rods ( unsure which brand to go...suggestions? )

hks F-con V-pro ( most likely i have heard they are better than Power FC at higher power levels that may be wrong tho )

GReddy Plenum

hks 272 cams

hks cam gears

as for fuel i am unsure atm but i am thinking 1000cc injectors are going to be needed and a nice fuel rail so any suggestions on those would be great

this is what i have written down on paper so bits and pieces may change over time when i do a little bit more research

We made 404 AWKW on pump gas with 2530's...28psi. HKS full kit...dumps/mani./piping...5 inch thick cooler...720cc injectors... 3 bosch fuel pumps...Power FC.

Engine was all Nissan except Arias pistons and tomei 260 cams.

What you dont need is the Greddy plenum, 272 cams, rods are only optional as correctly prepped stockers are certainly up to the task...just make sure ARP fasteners are used.

Feel free to pm if you need a hand.

Paul

P.S. We constantly made between 440-460 when pushed with C16 and 34psi.

    • The average previous owner for these cars were basically S-chassis owners in the US. Teenagers or teenager-adjacent. I often tell people that neglect is easier to fix than something that was actively "repaired" by previous owners.
    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny
