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

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
