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

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
