after reading a mighty good thread on small singles or even big singles on gtrs i decided to stay low mount twin! it was going to cost well over my budget anyway?

i am only looking for around 300-320awkw this is what i think ill need,if there is anything missing or i have something there that isnt needed would be great if yous could let me no?

pfc+hand controller

550cc injectors

z32 afm+plugs

front pipes(just jap or should i get hks)

cam 260 duration 9.1 lift

cam gears

new cooler core

fuel reg

oil cooler and relocater

now with turbos this is where i would have to be careful so not to blow the budget

so ive seen some r32 gtr n1 spec turbos for about $1200 what are these thinngs like if someone could shed some light

gt-ss bit pricy but would the best option

gt2860r with either -5-7 not sure what these are like b ut sound good for $2700

so any help would be greatfully appreciated

regards kane

GT-SS's pricey?

The Aussie dollar buys over 90 Yen at the moment so its an awesome time to buy. The GT-SS complete kit brand new should cost you a touch over $3k delivered.

They will be more responsive than the 2860's and will easily accomplish the power you want.

My GTR is producing 320awkw on a safe tune with them at the moment.

517's arent as good as the GT-SS mate. Dont come close.

GT-SS comes in the kit remember, so everything you need.

You'll need to change the dumps though, the stock ones will hurt.

Stock manifolds are quite ok however

Dont get R32 N1's, they are shocking. There is a very good reason they are so cheap :P

Old design & shocking/poor response.

Its worth the extra $1500 for decent turbos.

everything else you have seems about right, except you want Nismo AFM's, not Z32's.

Otherwise you have to change intake piping and thats a mission if your on budget

Boost controller, replace coils, while you are doing large upgrades...........

...replace oil pump , water pump and timing belt....get the bearings and bolts changed at the same time though.

Then after it has cost you $5000+ :) to install your $7000 :P dollars of parts you will need to upgrade

or pay some attention to the brakes and suspension......and after $3000 :O of this....

.....you will then need some rims and sticky rubber so you can get a 1/4 mile result...this would cost about

$4000. :O And you haven't finished yet.

Believe me ....cause these are the figures you are facing.....

If you are worried about $3000 wait until you finish your upgrades. :)

As far as the -5(2530) turbo's.....they are the best choice for 320AWKW's and you have to have the Poncams to get this figure.

The 2530 is NOT the best choice for 320rwkw

They are the BAD choice

We have already established that earlier on

And i bet i can get over 300rwkw with the stock cams, thats my aim with the GT-SS, just a cam gear :)

He has stated he wants 320AWKW's not rear wheel.

I have the 2530's and am at 260AWKW's...I need Poncams to get me to 320AWKWS.

Or have I mis-understood his intentions?

Can i be your mechanic :) You seem to enjoy overkill...nothing really wrong with what you are suggesting i suppose...but id like to think that a GTR owner that is about to do these sorts of mods has a properly serviced car....so no need for new water/oil pumps, timign belts, coils etc etc

What boost have you up your thing for only 260kws with 2530s ?

If you read the..........engine failure thread.... you will be suprised on how many people get into trouble

because they believed the odometer reading in there car.... :)

When you are searching for more horses, as stated many times you need the mods and then you need the supporting mods. If their is any doubt in your mind ,that, their could be some issues with the current oil pump or water pump, you need to fix this first.

The last thing I would hate is to recommend something when I do not know the state of his vehicle.

The last thing he needs is to spend money...and then blow his motor...because of a timing belt , bearing or bolt

due to poor maintence.

Roy...my boost is at 1.3 bar and I have a 7500RPM cut out.This gives me 330RWKWS..

Poncams I am hoping will get me to 300AWKWS :P

AWKW and RWKW is the same thing... so im not sure how your confusing the intentions here.

I dont think you realise there is absolutely no difference between the two.

Dirtgarage tested AW & AW it, 1kw difference which is nothing but dyno variance at its best.

If you have 260 @ the tyres and your being told you need poncams for 320, then your mech IMO does not know what they are doing, time to have a chat with them or find another.

A stock turbo's GTR will pretty much make 260 @ the tyres. Let alone putting bigger turbos on it.

As stated, 2530's will net you around 370rwkw. They are not the turbo for 320rwkw/awkw or whatever other 4 letters you can think of

This information is all over the forum in a dozen different threads.

Again point taken...but what your suggesting isnt a common denominator. You dont have to do what you have posted for it to be reliable, provided you know the history of the car, which i would say most owners know, or mechanics can inspect. But agree, if you dont know the condition of the car then hold off on the mods until you have owned it for a while

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
