My R32 Gts4

[gtst25]

what is generally considered the ideal turbo for a rb20det and what kinda hp will it flow?

I you've got 10 g to spend I've either save my money - sell it and buy a gtr. OR rb30 conversion - if you've got the mechanical knowledge the 10g will go a long way towards 300+rwkw and extreme torque.

Cheers

AS ABOVE....

Or if you want to keep your car and engine and have a streetable car as mentioned speak to slide on this forum or contact GCG about getting a highflow.

Value for money they are awesome being able to keep standard manifold/dump pipe etc. You could get 220-240 rwkw out of an rb20 with right supporting mods/tune etc.

Hope that helps

Also try the rb20 thread to look at how others have gone about modding theirs and their results.

Cheers,

ten G is a fair wack of coin my friend! you have some great options as mentioned. Get a 32 GTR would be my pick, or if you want to stick with your car, use the money to put an RB26 in there and almost have a GTR.

Best advice from myself who has seen a lot of money lost from upgrading mods i already upgraded, then got bored of: dont waste your money on the rb20 or even a 25, go an RB26 and you'll have a platform that can lazily be a 160rwkw daily to a 300+rwkw street weapon or sleeper.

Ive spent a small fortune making my rb25 pretty sweet (which in all fairness it is), but im ready to throw an rb26 in there after much time and money spent.

cheers, enjoy your spending!

Thanks for the advice mate

To go the route of an engine swap to a rb26 would 10k cover all the cost?....buying the engine, having it install with the microtech etc (i dont want to stuff around with standard comp), would the gts4 gearbox be able to stand up to the extra strain of a 26 or would i need a gtr box? More $$$

Like you say you dont want to be revisting things you have already modified and spend $$$ on because your not happy, thats why im on here, want to get in right the first time

Thank again for your help

couldnt tell you about the strengths of a gts4 box.. im sure someone will jump in and tell you if its the same as a gtr one anyway.

It depends on which way you wanna go, if you can find a 26 that you know is healthy and can just drop it in, i would think 10g would cover everything. But if you want to add some new turbos, injectors and start modding the 26 then you may be looking at more. even some decent second hand upgrade turbo's could fit your bill. Theres a fairly recent thread i started, asking cost of putting a 26 into my gts-t.

check out R31Nismoids posts, esp #5 to give you some pricing ideas...

But personally i think selling and finding a nice 32GTR would be best idea as at the very least youll have better brakes, seats, and not to mention a legend parked in your driveway!!
