Mate,

I dont know about apexi power fc's but everyone seems to use them here and get some good figures. I have a 35/40 Garrett(Cost me $1550), 44mm Tial Wastegate(About $500 if you shop around) and stock 25 injectors(Free and maxxed out) on a 25/30 combo and it just turned out 356.5hp @ the rear wheels but I run a Haltech E6X and stock VL Turbo Fuel system(your skyline fuel system will handle it I think). If you have a custom exhaust all is good.

You will need a high mount manifold (I paid about 350 for mine off ebay and its been great but you can pay upto $1200 and be weary as quality is varying) Power Fc's will set you back upto about $1200 but you can get second handies for cheaper.

Your stock pistons and rods will handle it for sure but also depends on how good of condition your engine is as mine is brand new rebuild.

Hope it helps others might be able to chime in with more advice. Shop around before you jump in and look for people that come recommended.

thats quite cheap for the turbo etc cause i got quoted for a low mount gt35 with everything like wastegate,injectors, fuelpump power fc exhaust manifold, dyno tune,turbo gaskets,oil feed line, mod intake pipes, dump pipe fuel reg and labour all up about 8.7 grand and thts a bit much for me

350hp? At the engine or the wheels?

Either way, good reliable power costs money. Though i dont think you need a turbo that big for 350hp, but it will easily cost over $5000

[Sammie]

yea well 5 to 5 and a half is sorta my budget and its at the wheels

stock VL Turbo Fuel system(your skyline fuel system will handle it I think).

the stock r33 fuel pump flows more than a stock vl will. the stock vl pumps about 96L per min and the r33 is 135L/min.

if your car is a manual also take into account a heavy clutch or your stock 1 will chuck the towel in pretty quickly.

anyone reken i can see this kind of power by getting a gcg highflow,injectors and a fuel pump and a good tune or am i dreaming cheers guys car currently is making 256 hp

IIRC the GCG Hi Flows are good to 260rwkw (~350hp). Just look over the group buy thread, theres heaps of info on them there. You have most of the supporting mods so I don't see why it wouldn't, maybe some cam gears/poncams to get it spooling earlier.

sweet anychacne u could give me a link to them threads been looking for them and i think gcg isa mucch cheaper option sincei got a quote for a garret theres alot of custom work which needs to be done and they told me for 350 hp usinga gt35 im looking at 9 and abit grand
