most rwkw with stock turbo & cooler???


Recommended Posts

I agree 105%.

Similar to the story of my small mods trying to max out my stock ECU + Turbo rather then just taking the easy step of whacking on a bigger turbo.

Maximise what you currently have until you can't get anything more out of it, -then- start modding.

/QUOTE] i was looking at the 200 mark, i would be happy with that,i have a dual stage turbo controller,so most of the time i run around at low boost!!!!!

TufR33,

Sorry for not answering the original q's. I get on my soap box a bit :(

A hiflow would be good, a modest sized intercooler upgrade (same flow as turbo spec). Fuel pump, reg and s-afc.

Nigasnt,

Ask yourself this (re: driverskill) : " how hard is it to drive in a straight line?". Not hard is it. :(

Don't go to a track day till you can or there will be trouble! :D

TUFR33, think you will have trouble getting there with a stock coola. Turbo should be OK, as several people have had over 200rwkw with the stocky.

You should be just ok with the fuel system if it is healthy to begin with, but will be at its limits.

You most probably will need some sort of management, unless you have one of these freakish series II ECUs, but time will tell.

I have just over 200 on a dyno dynamics dyno (tilbrooks), with power fc, EBC, pod (with partition and CAI), full exhaust - heat wrapped dump, FMIC, Z32 afm and 0.85bar boost. My injectors are on their last legs, as I guess my fuel pump will be too.

Hope this gives you some sort of idea - but there is more than one way to skin a cat, (or should the experession be updated to gut a cat...:( ) and there will always be slight differences car to car.

Lastly, you will have to get a new clutch - best do this one early as it is a bit disappointing (personal experience:p ) when you mod then cant drive it properly, or tune it properly till you upgrade the clutch.

Just my 0.02 hope it helps

If you already have a mines chip, I wouldnt be expecting too much, but a SAFC2 definately wont hurt.

I believe some lads on here have quoted gains in the region of 10-20rwkw+, but I am not sure how much boost or with or without coola etc so I wont try and bullshit you - I really dont know.

Perhaps someone else might be better qualified to answer that one????

theres more involved in a 1/4 run that just driving in a straight line. U r just very moddest!

i so wanna see u run that time at calder, i dont think u can do it down here in melbourne

ha ha.. you are funny.:D

I would take you up on the challengen but, melborne is a fair way off.

Why don't you think I can do it, after all it's just a drag strip?

Its ON!

In the white corner...with 183rwkw and weighing in at a conservative :) u get the idea

Nothing wrong with a little friendly competition. Once I figure out the perfect launch and add a couple more mods then I will join in the fun. [that's a promise and a threat :)]

It is more fun, calder is good for a time slip etc but not as fun as what he said. I am always ready - u guys have a lot more mods though...but I dont care...

sorry - that was slightly off-topic!

just adding something more on-topic. mine has recorded 182rwkw with stock turbo and cooler ~ oh and just about stock everything else too :)

[only mods are pod filter, 2-3psi increase and cat-back]

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
