hey guys i know this would have been covered, so if you could just point me in the right direction, thatd be great.

I have a r34 gtt which id like to get to 450-500hp at the wheels.

Is there a forum which will give me all the info i need and what should be done to the car to safely run these levels.

Thanks guys.

450 or 500?

450 @ the treads could be easily achieved with a garrett 3076, fuel pump, 700cc injectors, Z32 afm, FMIC, ECU and e85 on stock internals

500.... you'd probably wanna be building

well if 450 would be insanely cheaper id go for that,

So its mainly the fuel system/part that needs to be built to support this kind of upgrade??

Fuel rail i have heard of, not exactly sure what it is tho.

About 20-30 thousand dollars.

holy "curses repeatedly"!!

So a bigger turbo, rated at 500hp, 700cc injectors, suitable fuel pump, remapped ecu or a brand new one??

Not sure what the e85 or z32afm are??

FMIC is currently the blitz se kit, tube and fin, 620x266x76.

Clutch being the Exedy single plate heavy duty. NSK 7333HD with the standard flywheel. Would the stock flywheel be ok with this or need to be changed??

I would imagine the clutch and fmic are going to cope ok with this??

Thanks again.

You'll need a 600-700hp turbo, they are not rated @ the wheels.

500rwhp = 370rwkw.

That is GT35 territory which is a 650-700hp item.

370rwkw = built motor territory as well, and hence you are talking around 20k in total costing

I think im chasing more 400-450 at the wheels. ive been reading around a little.

500 at the wheels is a costly excercise.

I'm running an hks 2835 pro s which is a modified 3071

car makes 285rwkw on bp ultimate and 325rwkw on powerplus e85

that's 381 and 435 hp respectively

the car has been making this power on stock internals for 2 years now and sees a lot of limiter time

a 3076 will just nudge over my power levels by a few kw.

A z32 afm is an airflow metre from a z32 and will be required to support that kinda airflow

your clutch will hold, but as a single HD won't last forever

Fmic will be fine

as for the stock internals, of course it is a gamble and it could go pop.... But that is life and it's just a gamble you take :banana:

cheaper to sell your R34 as is

and buy one thats already got the power and expensive stuff done

there is an ER34 with a 3 litre big sinle on carsales.com.au in melbourne for sale

its got around 400rwkw with all the expensive stuff done

will be far cheaper than you buying all the parts and having someone do it

Point taken but i think im keen to build this 1 up, as i know it hasnt been thrashed and hasnt got many mods at the moment, and what has been done, ive done myself.

This way i know what my car has got and has been done to it etc.

couldn't agree more! and a much quicker way of doing it, instead of having your car off the road all the time to have work done to it...

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
