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.

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
