as the topic says, ive done the 'basic' mods to my stock GTR

but not sure where to approach next?

so far;

XSpower dumps and front

HKS catback

HKS cam gears (in/ex plus HKS belt)

Apexi power intake pods

Apexi pfc

Apexi EBC

Nismo twin plate clutch

so where to go next? (im aiming near 300rwkw on stock turbo)

stock turbo :yes: don't think so

Yep.

300rwkw + stock turbos = no sale.

250rwkw, no problem. 300rwkw is way off the achieveable.

If you want 300rwkw, its a GT-SS or Garrett Equivs in a turbo change which worst case is going to cost 5k installed/tuned

HKS 2530s? yummy

Those alone (with injectors and AFM's) will give you around 325kw's @ 19psi with your current set-up. If you also add some poncams you'll increase that slightly but increase your mid-range heaps.

Then once you get bored with that you can build your bottom end and go for 360+ no problems.

If you think 300 is going to keep you happy for ever then the GT-SS or 2860-7's or R34 N1's are your best option. But you won't really get much past 260 on the stock turbo's.

I think the next mod should be to give me the car =) I'll even give you my 33 GTR V-Spec as a gesture of good will. Best mod EVER ^_^

For me...

As stated, 300 won't happen on stock turbo's safely if at all but you have plenty of options and if you can afford a 34 GTR then you'll have no worries throwing a few K at the turbo setup to get you the 300rwkw's you're after. As was also pointed out, you might need to consider exactly what power you have in mind as a bottom end build may also be required if you can see yourself wanting more than 350kw's+

Be sure to keep us posted =D

What are you wanting to use the power for? Thats going to have a huge bearing on what people will recommend.

Is it for the track?,

for the strip?

for a fast road car?

for a relaxed cruiser? ( :yes: well maybe not)

As they said on top gear on Monday (when the Porsche 911 handed a beating to 2 far more powerful cars), its how you put the power down (and where it is in the curve) that really matters :) .

I have similar mods to you (minus clutch) on my 32GTR and have 34GTR turbos. Currently 240rwkw @ 15psi. I have a few more mods planned before I hit turbos (GT-SS or N1's for 300-320rwkw), I spose I can 'hope' for 250kw with these turbos, maybe.

Tune it for 250, then see if its worth spending the extra money getting it to 300. Most people are content with 250 once they get it.

im in the process of fitting the parts now

whack in the pfc & get it tuned, hopefully i'll make the 250rwkw mark

and will enjoy it for a lil bit till I get bored of the power, then put more $ to push for the 300

but will keep u guys posted

    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
