Hey lads and ladies,

I have an r32 gtst with an rb20det...I am after some cheap but good bolt on fo fast bits to increase power in the car...I would like 300rwkw but don't think this is possible without crackin the puppy open and doing some internal work...

Currently I have:

FMIC

3 inch cat back exhaust (will have a 3 inch split dump/front pipe installed and a 3 inch hi-flowed cat soon)

POD

Boost Controller

What other parts should I get in my quest for power???

I was looking at a T3/T4 turbo (i believe, can't remember exactly), externally gated, that will be good for mid range and will spool 500 rpm later than stock (which I want as it is a street car with an occassional track outing)want to run about 16psi

I know I need injectors and pump and reg but what kind

Will I need a PFC

Oil Cooler

WHAT ELSE CAN I GET THAT IS A SIMPLE BOLT ON TO IMPROVE POWERAN AFFORDABLE ON A LIMITED BUDGET???

forget the turbo upgrade. you said budget so that wont even go near a turbo upgrade. my suggestions

ecu remap

rb25 turbo

cold air intake kit

suspension work

fuel pump

oil cooler wont add power

injectors wont add power

fuel reg wont add power

and be happy with that. injectors, ecu, and turbo is another 3k expense, plsu the cost of a 1980's style plain bearing diesel turbo which will come on boost probably near 5 grand. why bother? the rb25 will come on fairly nice and should make near 180rwkw. 300rwkw on a rb20 is way out of your scope.

300rwkw is doable but not on a budget.

I got to 260rwkw with no head modifications, running standard exhaust manifold and inlet manifold etc.

You need to ask yourself what you want more:

response or hp.

There is no turbo out there that will boost 16psi 500rpm after the stock one and be capaable of 500hp. You will need to sacrifice response to reach your target but you could expect full boost at approx 3500rpm. The rest of the engine etc. will be built for strength anyway so you will have plenty of managable power up to 7500rpm.

There's no such thing as 300rwkw on a limited budget.

There's also no such thing as a street rb20det making 300rwkw.. Well there is if you don't mind having no boost in the first 3gears. :laugh:

Settle on a sensible power level and go from there.

    • I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road. 
    • That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 馃挭馃徏 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...
    • Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?
    • I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
    • Well, I had an Edward Lee's special edition odo windback car/motor with a RB25DET S2 and I put down 372kW with a good amount of track abuse for 1.5 years before the ring lands decided it didn't want to stick around anymore 馃ゲ But probably didn't help I kept on smashing try limiter on the track and a few skid pans.
