You need to think about what you want to do with the car.. ie if you want to set the car up as a drag / track / street only ??

Different turbos for different purposes... also don't forget supporting mods etc

So yeah, start with what you want out of the car, set a budget and go from there :thumbsup:

well pretty much for street/drag, i want it for high performance and i really don't have a budget

Let's see... if you want smallish low mounted turbos, try the HKS GTRS, or Garrett 3071

Most people go for Hi-flows if you still want response.

Or if you want nice big power no matter how laggy it is, you can go for Garrett T04Z.

well pretty much for street/drag, i want it for high performance and i really don't have a budget

if you dont have the budget then youu dont really have money to change the turbo, do you have all over supporting mods? no point changing turbo if the power increase is so little that stock injectors are going to keep up. then if you change injectors you need afm and then u need ecu and the list goes on.

before going into solution mode how much do you want to spend?

5k

10k

15k

20k

25k

30k

let us know your power target and budget then we can give suitable answers

ie if you only want to spend 5k were are really limited and youll be stuck with comprimises etc

20k is a f**king great budget

this is what u need

turbo (gt35, 3076r etc)

manifold

injectors

external gate

exhaust mods

big cooler (nothing chinese)

fuel pump

ecu

clutch

other than that its just the little things like gaskets, dash fittings, catch tanks etc (there is lots of little things as well to consider like if u wanna go forgies etc but u should really go speak to a mechanic about the price of what they charge but u can definately build a fast and reliable lil package for 20k)

id look at a brake and diff upgrade as well

let us know how u go

cheers

One idea man, why not buy an R34 GT-T that someone else has spent the 20k on it, save yourself a tonne of money and means you dont have to go through all the effort of getting your car setup.

I would personally buy this:

The other question you have to ask yourself is do you want the car to appear legal? If so, you want to stick to a hi flow turbo, go big cooler and keep the stock airbox. Exactly like the car above.

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
