Hey guys, i've just bought a '93 R32 GTST and its as stock as a rock,

apart from 3inch exhaust and im 90% sure its got coilovers, turbo timer, and a hell old boost gauge.

So im currently looking at what would be the best way to get to 300rwhp.

My mate has a 180sx he said he spent about 3k on the engine to get it to 300hp

so i was wondering what are the best mods to help me achieve this.

things im looking at getting first (due to cash flow)

-FMIC

-Electronic Boost Controller

-RB25 turbo??

-injectors??

I've been told front mount is $500-600 second hand, and a electronic boost controller is quite a bit.

Probs got about 2k to spend, but any ideas/how your set-ups are would be awesome to get an idea!

Hi

Welcome the website.

What you are asking is rather common, and there is plenty of information available for you.

1. Dyno thread, have a read, see what other people have done

2. FI Guide, plenty of links there for the beginner to read

You'll soon see $2000 is nowhere near enough to make 220rwkw. If your budget is that tight i'd suggest leaving it as is.

ECU & tune = 1500

GTR injectors = 200

Turbo = 1000

FMIC = 600

Labour/gaskets/fittings/other stuff that might go wrong etc = 500-1000

Nistune Chip in your ecu + a tune will cost around $500

New Front mount will be $400 - 500

GTR injectors around $200 - Set aside another $250 for cleaning, flow testing, new o rings and resistor pack

Hiflow your turbo for $900 No need for a boost controller yet, just get a 1.2kg actuator with the hi flow(Boost controller ca be added later)

That should do more than 300rwhp

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
