forum geeks??

me??

hahaha

Sorry mate, but I have under 200rwkw and I'll run rings around you! :happy: (Andru)

Seriously though man, ok, to hit over 260?

a GT3540

and a Z32 AFM or the nissan V8 AFM?

But still, Id be looking at internals to keep that engine alive for longer period of time.

And even then, you can still make 280 plus rwkw

3540 is way to big for the rb25 to make 300rwkw

hell my HKS 3040 is a tad too big for what i get and be nice and streetable.

oops

my mistake

so what would you say to use then?

(ECR033 - Brendan makes around 280 rwkw on this combination and ran a high 11)

What if you decided to use the RB30 bottom head? Obviously thats out of the question here but "theoretically" (sp?)

I think "MILF" the VL turbo has that combination and makes similar power

GT35/40 FTW.. you'll make well over 300rwkw with reasonable boost, that answers the "what's needed" question. But as everyone has stated, don't bother chasing that power and beyond unless you're willing to spend $$$$ to build the engine with forged internals + all the supporting fuel, cooling, breathing mods.

Hey Chris,

Small correction mate - I'm using a GT3040R at the moment :happy:

To keep the car streetable, I personally wouldn't go for anything larger than a GT30 series on a std rb25.

im not to fused bout turbo size i know what im after, its just all the screwing around for everything to keep up with the turbo. its a hard job but im gonna give it a go.

how long will the car last with stock internals with 300rwkw. if possible id rather slap the turbo on now with the fuel pump and injectors, and when i get enough money put in the pistons, rods, ect

will it do alot of dmg or anything if im running 300kws with stock internals

i always thouught of maybe buying a whole new engine and doing a engine swap, makes sense and might actually be cheaper, but like i said, i hate that whole engine surgery crap

lol mate my car atm is 220rwkws......i know all u forum geeks think im some noob but take it easi lol....

i dont even think highflowing my turbo would even get anymore then 260rwkws, any suggestions on at least hitting 280? without all that engine sugeryy

lets see, if your aim is around 280rwkw then GT3040 with cams would do the trick. anything bigger will be laggy. and obviously other auxiliary components such as afm, fmic & etc will be needed.

as for injectors, 600cc would be sufficient for what you want to achieve.

A mate has an r33 with this setup (r34 would get similar result) almost 290rwkw if i remember correctly. Cams are the important factor here much better mid range power, more driveable.

Regarding longevity, if you track the car with 280rwkw the stock engine will let go sooner than later, if you mainly using it on the street then it should be fine as long as you treat it with care.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
