hey guys im looking at building up my car early next year , currently i have around 190kw from fmic , dual stage boost switch , 3 stage heavy duty clutch , bosch 040 pump ,running 10psi , anyway i recently bought a power fc and since then getting around 300kw has been on the cards, and so far i reckon i will need new turbo i think its the hks one on just jap comes with oil lines etc etc , a new oil pump , bigger injectors , maybe twin 040 pumps??? forged pistons and new afm all the work will be done in adelaide either engine on its own or ill send the whole car down , im thinking of sending it to morpowa seeing as they originaly built the car to where it is now before i bought it. so basically what im asking is , have i missed anything??? and will the standard gearbox and diff hold up to the extra power??? im looking at spending no more than 15k any help is appreciated.

to reliably get 300rwkw you will need a rebuild, a bigger turbo is a must (although you did not mention what you have, with 190rwkw i assume its not standard), oil pump will be fine but may need upgrading depending on what you want to do with the car, bigger injectors, i think a z32 afm will do the job, standard gear box will be fine depending on usage.

Try looking in the rb25 dyno section, that will show you what people have to achieve the power you want.

Also what is a 3 stage heavy duty clutch?

For 300rwkw my build would be as follows.

Decent front mount cooler Blitz or the like.

HKS 3037 Turbo kit @ 20ish psi

lower comp to around 8.5

Decent EBC

Nismo injectors 555's will do the job (740's leave more headroom)

Rebuild bottom end with Forges etc

Z32 AFM

Power FC

Not sure about the 040 but a Nismo Pump will do the job nicely

Gearbox will be fine for street use

Exedy Ceramic clutch

my 2c

buy a real GT3076 or HKS version if you are feeling the need, 550cc injectors, Z32 afm and run it around 270-280rwkw with good tuning on the standard bottom end will be enough to keep you going for a while. this should save you a pile of cash in the short term.

gradually assemble the parts for a forged bottom end if you are feeling the need.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
