Drag and street dont go well together. Usually whats awsome on the street is dissapointing on the strip.

Not to mention we all live in the land of defects now. My advise would be to build a streetable car, that looks stock, but blows away 97% of the competition.

The recipe is a very well trodden and proven one.

*HKS 2530's with HKS actuators

*HKS Split dump pipes

*Full 3inch (minimum) exhaust. dB requirements are different from state to state, but around 90dB is the limit, so a couple of mufflers or a silencer is advisable.

*Apexi Power Fc

*Boost controller (HKS, Blits Apexi etc)

*minimum 660cc injectors

*larger Bosch in-tank fuel pump

*Cam Gears (Os Giken, Tomei, JUN)

*Minimum twin plate clutch

*Either Twin Pod set-up or higher flow air filter. But I would recommend still using standar air box.

*Nismo or Z32 Air Flow Metres

*upgraded brake pads

You dont really need another intercooler. Standard GTR will flow ok. Dont really need cams either, but HKS step 1 are a direct bolt in option, so they are pretty good.

Thats what is a great street car, and with tuning and installation 15-20k is around the right figure (if you are buying brand new components)

This will net you around 320rwkw.

Any more and it internal time, bigger everything (turbo, injectors, clutch, gearbox etc) add another 20-30k (including labour, tuning etc)

I agree with everything except you definately need an intercooler min 100mm. Air flow meters are debateable, maybe a set of coils.

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...
