Have a yarn with zenon Josh, Thats about where he's at with some carefully thought out spenshun mods and he has a ball in that flat capper of his.

Yeh might hit him up. My teins gotta go! no question there. Dont even think they are worth trying to save with less silly spring rates in them

T51Z on a stock rb20, and then change the timing belt.

and then fit a new intercooler.

then some more parts.

then wait a couple weeks

RB24 is a waste of time.

Plenty can be done with the RB20. Need to spend a bit on cylinder head work though if you want the numbers and torque.

Leave the bottom end for now, take off the head and put on a pre-ported one with bigger valves etc. Go Pon cams, Angry German with surge tank injectors and a NISTUNE or I have an ECU in my 20 which has already been chipped and I won't be needing it. Already set up for 550's and a Z32AFM

I can't use AFM with the new setup as there is nothing big enough for 1rwkhp

So all you'd need would be injectors, fuel system, JJ intercooler and a couple of other bits and pieces. Could easily get 220rwkw on that turbo.

Then when you can afford more of an upgrade (or even want one) do the cylinder head and go bigger turbo/cams. You can make 235rwkw on the stock cams with stock/untouched head.

You can also do 205-210 rwkw on stock injectors and AFM too but I would be careful running them at those levels.

Is it worth toying with cam gears? Or not worth it unless I went to a full ECU?

Worth my time buying a 6boost manifold for the current turbo? (I have no views of going high mount/ex gates).

The key is, response, keeping it alive and staying consistent

No, stay factory manifold but maybe heat coat inside and out.

easy to keep it alive but revs will have to be cut short at 8k until you can afford/want bottom end work. And I'm not talking about beat kind of bottom end work.

    • Today, I'm a Breville BES920 tech, new triac board and new 3x way solenoid. Had overheating issues, home RCD tripping when it got warm, and the boiler stayed on when the machine was shut off. Also, usually 3x way solenoid chatter, this is the 3rd time I'm replacing it. Mind you, this machine is 9 year old and send it every day doing at minimum 3x double shots. When the in laws come over to took after my daughter, it will easily see 6x double shots in a single day. Tried to be somewhat compliant, crimped and then used a screw connector over the top. Would have preferred to use heat shrinks.   After all that, turns out all the overheating has damaged the o-rings to the steam tap as well. Ordered new ones, coming soon.  
    • Still got it- First time checking sau in a while ahhaha
    • I don't know about that. I can hoon my R32 around - hard launches, high lateral Gs - with <<1/4 tank without any such shenanigans. This with the previous 040 and the current GSS342. I would suspect a fuel line problem. One of the hoses associated with the top of the tank perhaps.
    • This is amazing. Love that you’re giving the boys an intro to cars and off the screens. They probably have an insta for the car and build posts on TikTok for their mates.
    • It is.  Your car works fine with the tank full. If you drive like a Nana it works fine.  You give it a boot full with half a fuel tank, you get surge.  It 100% is a fuel surge issue. Maybe have a look at installing a Hydramat if you don't want to install a surge tank.  https://www.holley.com/products/fuel_systems/hydramat/
