260kw is pretty sweet, but i want to see more from this package :rofl:

i f*cken love the black plenum too - i'm assuming you bought it like that? the lack of piping is very nice, though i want to see you tidy that engine bay up a bit more :(:rant:

the package has more to come for sure ,the plenum was the normal greddy silver and i got a mate to paint it for me in 2pack.

She's gonna be one hell of a beast my car is going to undergo an engine transplant, where is your location and who's doing all the work on your car PM me please, Hame

pm sent .if you need any help just ask unlike some i like to share info :laugh:

nice engine bay. what you should of done was paint the plenum white also and continue the red lines onto it.

thanks. it sounds easy but its not. the engine would of had to be put together then air brushed then cleared while working around the mechanic and doing it all in three weeks with out pissing off the spray painter ,the air brush dude and the mechanic.originally there was going to be a samurai sword on the plenum but i ran out off time.i still might do it.

thanks i hope fellow modifiers don't copy and it stays original .

lol, nice covers mate. but i wouldn't go as far to say it's original... I've seen probably at least a dozen cars with the same thing. considering people have been modifying japanese peformance cars for the better part of 20 years there is not much you can do these days and be first...

here's just one.

Wait for a SAU or club "dyno day"

Just saw this thread for the first time VERY impressive and a nice selection of mods.

I too have a HKS GTRS kit; but running Tomei Poncams, head porting, std plenum and std bottom end. My a/f ratios were kept at approx. 11.5:1, to keep the engine "safe". Running 18psi i made 268.2rwkw, but your response is WAY more impressive. Could be due to the plenum, cams, fmic (i was using a truck core), but most probably to the fresh rebuild.

The engine has since blown, while i was at a race track (cyl #3 dropped compression), and i have decided to build an rb2530, which means upgrading the turbo, again. I guess i will never know what the GTRS's true potential is, but yours demonstrates it clearly. Well done mate, an excellent build and it would feel awesome to drive.

Below is a comparison between our two graphs, you will be happy:

For my new engine i have bought a new GReddy plenum, XTR 100mm fmic, Garrett GT30R turbo 500hp (smallest recommended turbo), ATI balancer and a whole lot of other parts. Unfortunately it takes my mechanic a lot longer than 3 weeks to build an engine, but we'll get there.

All the best and enjoy :)

yeah pretty nice, fresh engines always feel so good, no when i did mine it was devine to drive, be interesting to see the potential of this setup, i'd like to know what sort of affect your cam selection of 256 in 264 ex would do for the package... im interested in these cams myself

    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
