im looking at making 300 - 350rwkw and was wondering wot mods will be required to get to that power: the car has a rebuilt motor and is yet to be dynoed or tuned.. as Mines ECU cant be tuned so looking at perhaps getting it chipped/tuned by dr drift etc or pfc

turbo option is either the R43 N1 or 2530 as i have read both are similar and good performers

front/dump pipes along with high flow cat - any brand/size recommendations

GReddy cam gears are fitted but yet to be adjusted so should provide more horses

factory intercooler - is this capable or needs to be upgraded?

fuel pump/rail/regulator - needing upgrade? wot sort of power can they handle?

injectors - sard or nismo items perhaps as im assuming std injectors wont cut it

airflow meter - twin z32 - i read somewhere that rb26 afm's are smaller than rb20 as it uses twin afm so replacing stock items with two rb20 afm would be an upgrade??

any other suggestions or recommendation will be greatly appreciated

You will defenitly need a larger Frount Mount Intercooler and 3" pipes from the turbo back.

Also, Injectors and Fuel pump, and probably the turbos will have to be upgraded but not sure which ones...

Dont know if this will get you over 300rwkw though....

Go for the power fc, tried and proven to be more than ample for the job, and you will get the best results from it over a tuned/chipped ecu.

N1's should see 300 to 350awkw and a bit over, 25/30 will make more like 350 up to 380awkw and over..

Factory cooler will be " ok " but not ideal, better intercooler will see better performance..

Cam gears are good!

Stock fuel rail is fine, bosch 044 fuel pump and nismo reg should be perfect

Injectors will need an upgrade.. 550cc ~ 600cc should be ideal, but can go bigger if you want more head room.

Front pipes and dump pipes will reduce backpressure and will increase power as well as quicker turbo spool..

Go the z32's over the rb20's

Do you have a budget in mind and there's alot of $$'s worth of mods in there..

Ye, is it 300 or 350?

Because 34N1's are 300-320 range, 2530's are 350-400 range.

You need to decide which you want.

And what is the budget?

1) Stock I/C will be quite fine, no problem

2) I wouldnt use an FPR/rail. The stock gear is quite fine also

Stock pump might well be ok, depend on turbo choice again

3) Nismo AFM's are what you want, not Z32's.

4) Injectors - will depend on your turbo choice

5) Cam gears, a definate.

So as you can see, it depends on your turbo choice and then the following budget.

Personally, i would have a PowerFC installed and take a trip to Racepace.

How deep are your pockets ?As asked .And do you know the supporting mods you will need?

So far you have listed the mods and no supporting mods.

But before you start mods........change your oil pump,water pump,timing belt ,bearings and bolts.

Make sure your suspension and brakes are good to handle the power too.

Hope I have help.

Cheers

as he said

as he said except i'd prolly do pump anyway.. only 230 for a bosch 040 which goes in with minimal fuss

4) Injectors - will depend on your turbo choice5) Cam gears, a definate.

as he said.. i'd prolly wanna throw in some poncams aswell tho if goin 2530's

Personally, i would have a PowerFC installed

definately fc like he said

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
