i have just bought an r32 4 door rb20 turbo which is my first turbo it has

*bilstein front shocks

*koni rears

*runs standard boost(at the moment)

*everything on the motor is stock except GTR injectors and GTR radiator stock exhaust runs on 18 inch rims....the rims are stamped in japanese writing so i dont know wat kind of rims they are. Could any one tell me how many kwts my car ruffly has now, and can anyone tell me some good cheap and easy mods to get me started i am currently in the process of getting it dyno tuned. I just wanna do a couple of things first then get it tuned just some ideas would be great and any heads up to cruises would be even better cheers

Hey man

You could get a pod filter so it will let you hear the turbo and induction noise better

Then buy a 3inch exhaust to get a nice beat and let the car have more flow

Also put an intercooler in and then should be able to do a nice tune and make a pretty nice figure on the dyno.

Welcome to the forum, Niran

DONOT put a pod filter on without making/buying a cover for it, it will only suck hot air and you will lose power. Keep your standard air box and just put a quality filter in. Cold air induction if it hasn't got it already.

First make sure your brakes are good.(discs OK, new quality pads, bleed)

Full Service

Suspension(sway bars are the best cheap performance upgrade in my opinion)

Turbo back zorst with high flow cat, (biggest cat you can fit, keep the DB legalish to keep the Police happy and dont use a cannon as they are gay and will attract unwanted attention)

Most parts can be found at wreckers or import yards.

You may even find a good electronic boost controller, if not a cheap bleed valve will do.

FMIC (paint it matt black to avoid being a defect magnet)

Take it in for a tune.

Lots of good websites out there, check this one out for some nice cheap/free mods.

Most importantly, dont drive like a idiot on the street.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • 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 🍻
