Well 370rwkw - pretty much your usual RB26 build.

R33 GTR crank (or 32 with collar)

Stock rods with decent rod bolts

Forged Pistons

Usual pretting/maching and so on

HKS2530 or similar

Bit of a head tidy up

Injectors

AFMs

ECU

Exhaust/Dumps

Clutch/gearbox (if you dont already have)

Probably freshen the diff

Suspension/brake upgrages

Replace all hoses around the motor etc etc.

Your easily looking at 30k spending, if not more.

Plenty of info on ~370rwkw RB26's lots of em around.

The usual forged bottom end; no real need for major head mods - just a clean up when you fit Tomei poncams; T04Z or GTSS or GTRS's; power fc, 700cc+ injectors,bigger fuel pump; oil mods won't hurt and also a decent oil pump like JUN, HKS, Trust etc

There will be other requirements, but these are the basics.

You don't really need twin highmounts to achieve the power you are after, unless you just want them for the sake of having them. My twin 2835's made a lazy 411rwkw on 1.1 bar, but the abovementioned turbos in previous posts can easily make the power you need, which is plenty for a street RWD car.

ye, i too would advise against high-mount.

While it looks good (depending on turbo choice), its not as functional when there is a wide range of products out there that easily fit your goal, and use the stock gear tahts tried and proven.

Highmounts just means massive cost, for no better gain. And well... 2530's really arent that impressive (size wise), so high mounted from the looks, they would be so-so

Are you after the show aspect here mainly?

R33 box will take 370rwkw no problem.

Main reason for that is you wont have any traction no matter what you do :ninja:

You'll be fine IMO in RWD with a R33 box. I raced mine with 370rwkw 3-4 big days (20+ runs each time) and cant say i noticed any issues... but then i didnt have one iota of traction :mellow:

twin high mounts would be a massive waste as the turbs would be fairly decent sized (unless u had plans to build an 800+rwhp car), and for street ur mums camry would flog the shit out of u, have no boost till 6k lol... i have seen a guy get custom manifolds made up for smaller gt2870's or something rather to mount them high, (HPI magazine) although it looked funny as they arent that big in terms of size...

id personally go twin 2530's low mount save money on manifolds and have a crazy response set up

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
