alright got my car dynoed few weeks ago and hit a awsome 220rwkw with 12psi, and stock internals.

ive been looking at bigger turbos lately and was wondering what would i need to hit around 300rwkw?

ive recently also purchased injectors and a fuel pump for the new turbo (but havnt put it on yet) and was wondering would the RB25DET NEO need a engine rebuild? (cams, rods, ect ect) to keep up with 300kws?

so all i need is forged pistons? thats fine then i guess, oh and another question, how big will my injectors have to be to keep up with 300kws? i bought 525ccs and a 044 fuel pump.....they should last right?

and what other costs are involved? a mate of mine told me i had to take the whole engine out and machine out the old crap to fit in the new and that would cost around $1000. is this really needed? and what else would i possibly need to do?

Mate i think its time you called up somebody who does Heads & Blocks, cause your now going into never never land.

Contact flowcraft on 9361 2345, You cant just remove the old pistons and go in with the new..

You may want to Oring, Port and Polish, Shot peen, Put in a Stage 2 or 3 cam, heaps of things can be done to archive a proper rebuild in the end for a guesstimate your looking at $5000.

Around $15,000 is what you need if you want it reliable, otherwise it'll die sometime and your almost better off in a casino.

Same as all the other topics.

ECU - $1500

Turbo - $1800

Manifold - $1100

Motor rebuild - $8000 (includes new crank, oil/water pumps, pistons, general machining tidying up, motor in/out)

Clutch - $1200

Brakes - $1000

Injectors - $700

Fuel pump - $300

AFM - $300

Custom piping - $300

Exhaust - $1200

$17,700. Obviously take out what parts you already have to make the costs to what you need.

You wont need the rebuild right away in some cases, but either way you'll be doing it at some stage.

So if you cant afford the rebuild, dont chase the power. Its the basic rule of thumb for chasing power on stock motors.

Also factor into the case that you live in Melb and the legalities surrounding a modified car.

Your a P-plater... You will get dicked by the cops/EPA at some stage regardless of how you look at it.

So thats going to cost probably 5-7k to clear the defect.

If you ask me, just put a GCG hi-flow on there, a genuine 250rwkw and live a happy (reliable) life.

Thats more than enough for the street, the turbo is undetectable and you'll pass EPA/Roadworths easily.

If you want more detailed info (and there is plenty) - search.

Probly a Gt 35R turbo would do the job and the other goodies you have.

I have the GT 35R on mine running around the 320kw mark, but i also have a full forged rebuild.

I think its luck when you have stock internals and running that sort of power, its just a matter of a time BOMB.

How bout brakes & suspension? I'd consider an upgrade in those areas for that sorta power, pointless having that sorta power if u cant stop the thing or control it thru a corner. A driving course down ur local track would also be a worhwhile investment.

sheesh $8000 i wish people would pay that. u dont need a new crank we have made over 600kw

on prep'd standard cranks all day long. buy a decent set of rods instead

Well i would look at it from a point of view... if your going to do it.

Do it right. Although, i put the crank in there as most people will have the old style, which requires a collar... so its easier just to purchase a 33GTR one in the end most of the time.

Its not the issue of making the power on a stock crank, its which crank you choose to use :rofl:

New crank = what $1000?

Collar = $300ish fitted?

+ machining of the crank

+ getting it checked/testing it and so-on for wear etc etc

:happy: Its not far off, hence i just purchased a new crank. If you find your current one isnt so crash hot, then you've just done your dinner

happy with 250rwkw to 270rwkw!?!?!

Have you driven a car with that power output yet at all!?!?!?

Gees man, I hope your parents have you on their private healthclub membership.

Seriously - from all your posts here, I seriously hope now you have done at least a couple defensive driver training courses.

Sorry for hijacking the thread - but f**k me, you are going to hurt yaself.

    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it. 
    • Not yet quite as bad as what we've seen a Jim Berry clutch do in an R32 GTR though when it decided to cut a chassis rail in half... Still very very gnarly and a great reason to avoid.
