FMIC

Turbo back exhaust 3"

Fuel pump

12psi boost

Some sort of tune (SAFC, REMAP etc)

CAI to stock air box, or pod filter with CAI

About 170rwkw

I have 3" turbo back exhaust, bosch 040, blitz FMIC and standard air box. My car runs 13psi all day and has for the past 5,000kms with 0 issues.

It gets a good thrashing too, but I guess it all depends on the condition of your turbo. Its more luck I think :blink:

I may get it tuned with my PFC just to see what it makes on stock turbo but its a waste of money as I have a turbo kit on the way that I'd rather put on and get it tuned at once.

one thing you mite find with stock ecu it might like 12psi better then say 15psi what i mean by that is it may run better on lower boost due to factory boost cut and a few other things

Get a power fc and a few other bits you could make over 200rwk easy :):D:D:D

Not with stock turbo mate, not even with an RB25 turbo for that matter.

RB20 turbo on my RB20 loved 14psi, never had it dyno'd. RB25 turbo on my RB20, made 183rwkw on 12psi (untuned but with usual supporting mods - fmic, exhaust, 044 etc).

RB25 turbo on my RB30 makes the same power as it did on the 20 at the same boost but a lot sooner :blink:

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
