gday guy i was just after some info on building a 350-400awkw gtr. this is a long tearmish kinda goal to acheive

keeping it at the 2.6L...many a slight bore, but not stroking it out. also using low mounted twins that are direct bolt on if possible. is this able to be acheived.

at the moment the car if off the road and is about to receive a rebuild so im hoping the parts that will be able handle that kinda power figure.

have the computer ready to go in. then there will b some money spent on other things such as new suspension set up etc. a lil maintanence to the car...that kinda stuff

is this able to be acheived??

cheers

All you need is alot of money that you'll never see again >_<

Engine will need complete rebuild if you want any sort of longevity.. forged pistons/rods, everything in the head. Fuel supply will need to be substantial, as support systems, ECU, boost controller, intake, exhaust etc etc etc $$$

Don't forget suspension, wheels/tyres and brakes!

basically you will need a built motor with cams, a decent fuel system (pump, injectors etc), ECU, upgraded AFMs, HKS 2530s and all the support gear, like oil cooler, sump baffles and oil system mods, clutch upgrade, possibly box upgrade (depending on how you drive it), little things like EBC, new cooler, good gauges etc etc. It will be a fun car though.

With an RB26 u'll be looking at $15,000+ if you want something that will last and still pull out those figures. Someone who I know has R32 gtr had a full rebuild and is a complete beast and has spent about $20k so yeh not a cheap project at all.

some of that i think depends on the use of the car

being street or track etc

YES very achievable as there a number of rb26 low mount twins running this awkw around the place.

Equipment needed

Turbos .Garret Gt2560r 707160-5 or the HKS 2530 (these are the best two choices for what you want)

Ecu. Apexi PFC (only choice in my option for street gtr)

Afms. RB20/25afms (up to 530rwhp)and Z32 afms over this level (descreen the afms is good tip)

Injectors. 700cc sards

Cams. Tomei poncam 260deg 9.15mm lift or similar HKS etc

Cam Wheels. Tomei make great units but any will do the job (yes very importane in the final tune)

Exhaust. You need dumps and full exhaust (3 1/2" is good or twin system)

Fuel system. The r32 needs a direct power supply to the fuel and most likely a pump upgrade the r33 and r34 can make the hp if the pressure is not altered on the std system.

I would note running this power for any length of time especially in a r32 you will need forged pistons and a set of arp rod bolt (atleast).

there are many other nice things you can add but i have just listed what i have found you will need

ps as for the cost of all that well it variies to much and also weather your willing to work on the car yourself

Im looking at the same amount of power in my gtr as well.Good to see someone else is in the same boat as me.

Pnblight does the Garret Gt2560r 707160-5 have the same specs and spools at the same revs as the HKS2530 ?Just wondering because I hear HKS basically sells Garret turbos but with the HKS name,so want to know if theres any difference besides the names..

Cheers.

ok the hks2530 do spare some parts with gt2560r ie turbine wheel and housing but the garret run a different compressor wheel and to try and explain the difference from what i have seen it the garret spool better and are more efficient below 1.5bar but the hks 2530 can really come in to there own after 1.5bar.

The garret gt2560r 707160-5 are the best early spool and low end hp i have seen reliative to there potient.

3500rpm ~135rwhp

4000rpm ~180rwhp

4500rpm ~240rwhp

5000rpm ~360rwhp

5500rpm ~435rwhp

7500rpm ~529.4rwhp

so as you can see the power is early and quiet linear to explain by seat of the pants ride the engine pulls from 3000rpm and the its on turbos and hailing by 4000rpm which makes it an awesome track car, very fast and user friendly.

pete

ps hope that helps

This will give you an idea on pricing. This setup was $15000 drive in / drive out tuned.

Standard Rb26 internals.

GCG high mount manifold, GCG 35/66 SPL, Turbosmart progate 48, Sard 650cc injectors, Bosch 044 fuel pump, Apexi D-Jetro ECU, Tomei adjustable cam gears, Gates timing belt, Custom dump pipe, cooler pipes, intake pipe and filter, custom power steer resovoir, Speedflow turbo plumbing. Eboost 1. Includes labour for removal and fittment of all parts. Tune at Unigroup.

Note that no engine internals have been done, you can safely add Another 10k+ with a engine build.

    • I see you've never had to push start your own car... You could save some weight right now...
    • Sounds good.  I don't 100% understand what your getting at here. When you say, "I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down" do you mean this - there is a panel with factory paint, without any prep work, they paint the entire panel with primer, then colour then clear?  If that's what you mean, sure it will "stick" for a year, 2 years, maybe 3 years? Who knows. But at some stage it will flake off and when it does it's going to come off in huge chunks and look horrific.  Of course read your technical data sheet for your paint, but generally speaking, you can apply primer to a scuffed/prepped clear coat. Generally speaking, I wouldn't do this. I would scuff/prep the clear and then lay colour then clear. Adding the primer to these steps just adds cost and time. It will stick to the clear coat provided it has been appropriately scuffed/prepped first.  When you say, "but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat" I am imagining someone not masking up the car and just letting overspray go wherever it wants. Surely this isn't what you mean?  So I'll assume the following scenario - there is a small scratch. The person manages to somehow fill the scratch and now has a perfectly flat surface. They then spray colour and clear over this small masked off section of the car. Is this what you mean? If this is the case, yes the new paint will eventually flake off in X number of years time.  The easy solution is to scuff/prep all of the paint that hasn't been masked off in the repair area then lay the paint.  So you want to prep the surface, lay primer, then lay filler, then lay primer, then colour, then clear?  Life seems so much simpler if you prep, fill, primer, colour then clear.  There are very few reasons to go to bare metal. Chasing rust is a good example of why you'd go to bare metal.  A simple dent, there is no way in hell I'm going to bare metal for that repair. I've got enough on my plate without creating extra work for myself lol. 
    • Hi, Got the membership renewal email but haven't acted yet.  I need to change my address first. So if somebody can email me so I can change it that would be good.    
    • Bit of a similar question, apprently with epoxy primer you can just sand the panel to 240 grit then apply it and put body filler on top. So does that basically mean you almost never have to go to bare metal for simple dents?
