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.

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
