For those figures you probably would have beenbetter off buying a GTR. The extra cost of the GTR would have been more but it would have cost a hell of a lot less to obtain that kind of power figure.

Take it to RE Customs in Springvale and tell Ray you want 300 rwkw and dont car how much it costs. He'll love ya :banana:

word of advice ....start saving... keep all those 5cents pieces, go rob a wishing well, they got plenty of them

i spent a whole lot more then what people have been saying to achieve that kinda power.. but boy is it worth it when u take it for a spin

300kW at the wheels.

Is this going to be a weekend car or everyday car? Cuz it might be abit of a nightmare to drive...

Anyway I'd start with

High flow panel filter or pod

Front mount intercooler

Turbo back exhaust

Lightweight flywheel, single heavy duty clutch.

300rwkw isnt that hard to drive.

I drove daily @ 270rwkw, and then 370rwkw for a while...

I gotta admit it was interesting, but i wouldnt call it hard to drive if you aren't silly :)

I've been putting around with a choked 250rwkw a while ago (before choking was upped) and it honestly feels lazy to me... you sorta get used to it.

I don't get this whole 'hard to drive thing'

its not a V8...it won't be putting out anywhere near its top power without the input from the driver....I drive my car everyday, and could easily keep it off boost completely if I wanted too, without a lot of effort....can only imagine that its even easier as the size of the turbo increases...

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
