[Marko R1]

The GIO gtr also runs -5s and makes over 400awkw...beast!

Here u go.

-5 seems to be the goods for track work. Are these just not practical for the street? What set up would provide power and fast response for street driveability?

Stroker and -5's. Done.

Correction:

"On a worked engine like this, using very close to -5 turbos, I'd estimate around the 3800-4100rpm range. Once up in the revs and racing, boost will be there full time."

What fuel did they run in Group A racing?

[Duncan]

Makes more sense, I was pretty sure that the Group A cars run the Group A turbos (very modified of course) but still bush bearing and laggy as below 4000.

and on a non stroked motor? i dont see you would get the full use of of the -5's on the street.

[GTR_JOEY]

whats your definition of "full use" how exactly do u define "full use" on the street?

-5s are the biggest you would go on a 2.6L engine, anything bigger is gonna be rubbish

if your worried about response but still want decent power, get some GT-SS's or -9s

full use as in not waiting till 4000 RPMfor boost to come on, Next thing you know your at 180kph,

-9's seem the way to go, 350kw would still be achievable with -9's and supporting mods.

thats probably why Paul recommended a stroker if u wanna go the dash -5s

but yes -9s will do 350rwkw with the correct supporting mods

If you don't want to wait then its -9s

Read the 300-330rwkw thread mate, there is simply soooo much info. No need to talk about it in this thread.

Read the existing ones, they have more than enough information for you.

GTFO with your 300kw talk.

+1 Dave. So sick of the "how do I raise my boost for free" shit threads and people wanting mega power on a shoestring budget lately!

How's your setup coming along for power cruise? Give us some good news!!!

[Rolls]

N1GTR if you had bugger all cash would you settle for stock power? Or would you get as much as you could get?

I think what Steve (n1gtr) is saying these engines have been deveolped since 1989 and there is no magical cure for power for nothing , ive owed 5 gtr's over the years and things have gotten cheaper but getting power and moding a gtr/rb26 is not cheap you can get good power fairly easily / relitively cheap , but go over certain power and prepare to get wallet raped !my 2c

[N1GTR]

^pretty much exactly my point. Horsepower isn't free, and as Aaron mentioned there comes a point at which these cars go from a reliable fun toy which doesnt cost much to an all out black hole for money. Spending within a persons means is fine-good on people who do that, but I'm not talking about them, I'm talking about the increase in people who for example bolt on a highflow turbo, fmic, injectors etc then won't spend money on a quality ecu or quality tune and wonder why the car drives like crap.

Anyway, this is off topic, anyone in this thread with 400kw plus understands the expense and is under no illusion that certain things can't be done on the cheap

[NXTIME]

Exactly right, Aaron. I know more than a handful of GTR's that had $80-$100K spent on them to get over 400kw 20 years ago.

These days it is fairly easy to get 350-400kw on a low budget. Chase 500kw+ and things start to add up fairly quickly.

[Marko R1]

If you keep the power at a moderate level it should be sustainable. Then again, u hear of ppl popping engines with less than 300kw but many variables come into play such as poor tune. These work horse engines are 20+ yrs old hence a refesh should take place...whilst you are at it, u may as well set aside 20k for a solid donk with more powaaaaaa

HaHa , think im one of those 20years ago people , but like steve said anyone that has done it knows and people that have done it are just trying to help the virgins !

Getting some stuff done at Speedfab, should be back at JEM by the end of the week to get all bolted up.

Cutting it fine as usual.
