Hey forum just popping in to attain some info from the experts. Just wanted to know what id=s the max hp to be expected out of a rb26dett engine? Looked and searched the forum got 400rwkw but that wasn't confirmed, so I just want to know what the awkw figure would be just with bolt-ons. Gonna get myself a GTR and just wanted to know what I can do to the stock engine power wise that will make it last as it will be a daily driver I was looking at say 373 kw at all the wheels can the stock engine handle that?

300kw is beyond the limits of stock internals

you should get it built if you want 300kw

theres no upper limit i guess, how much money do you have, gtr700 makes 1100hp i think

Money is here and there (meaning scarce)after I get the car might have about 5000 left for whatever upgrades that can do, but can always borrow some money to get the car where I need it to be and I am not in a rush so it doesnt all have to be one time. Its completely stock so 3000 probably going on intercooler, pfc, and exhaust. What I really want is a gtr that has 500 horses is that enuff hp to do burnouts and 360's?

dont get a GTR to do burnouts and 360s

helis will kill the stock motor due to oil starvation and youll be in no position (presumably) for a 10k rebuild

Just get an exhaust, power fc and tune, some cam gears and a timing belt change (if needed)

Theres close to 250rwkw without raising a sweat

The factory intercooler wont need to be changed

if you want to do burnouts and 360's get yourself a RWD car.

You can go about 300kw on the stocker engine after that things are gonna go sour on you. get the basics, and have ur turbochargers checked, if they go bang on you then youd be up for a expensive build. but look at your finances first, you cant have a killer car and eat out of the dumpster.

Daboss, a GTR isnt for you. $5000 will only half cover the engine rebuild. Let alone the other 10k you'll need.

The maintainance costs are far beyond what you'll be able to afford, and would eat up the 5k alone in a couple of years, if not sooner

Especially if you wanna rape and abuse a motor.

There is no chance in hell the RB26 will crank out 400rwkw if you just wanna do burnouts.

I'd give it a few weeks of that treatment and it would be dead. Even @ 300rwkw. No stock RB26 will live a long life on the limiter.

Most track GTRs with 300-330rwkw eventually shit motors be that 1-2-3 years of use in such a manner... actuallly.. none have lasted to my knowledge

Ok thanks for the input guys, wow guess the GTS-T is the way to go. :) really wanted a GTR though. So what would I need engine wise to produce 350 awkw in a GTR?

Do not want it just for that, Just wanted to know if I wanted to cut loose from time to time if I could with a gtr and how much awkw would it take. Just wanted the ultimate performance car that would give me the most out of my dollar and that would rival many of the evo's, supras, rx7s and mustangs we have over here basically on a stock motor.

Supra hands down, forged internals, you can make 400+RWKW on stock engine and gearbox no probs and there are heaps of example i can give. Unbelievable cars that are extremely underrated, try to get a newish one though 97,98 or even s15 isnt to bad as its light cheap to mod and maintain compared to 6cyl and will give you all the sideways burnout action you like, whilst also being reliable conisdering its a 2001mdl compared to 97 etc

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
