Im aiming for 200rwkw and no more... Don't wanna end up with too much of a fuel guzzler as i don't earn a shitload and have 3 mouths to feed. Once i reach that goal, if i still want more “fun factor” ill convert it to manual.

Direct from the RB25 dyno thread:

Cmon man, we all know that is a BS result...dont beleive evrything you see on the net.. :laugh:

Chris just get the Hypergear hiflow, proven performer with warranty.

I got carried away and have 270kws now and really dont need it, but luckily I only have 1 mouth to feed so far...

For 200kw just get a NIStune and fuel pump. If u already have a front mount and 3inch TBE.

Normally rb25s can make 200 on 11-12psi

Yep, just to add to what the guys above have said... The highflow turbo that was on my car had a reciept for $1900 highflow service and the turbo SHOULD have made good power but the best i got was a laggy 250rwkw and i blame the tuner for that result as the specs on that turbo on other cars make better power and are nice and responsive.

To give you feedback on price, i sold mine for $800 in excellent condition.

I would probably be inclined to point you towards the HG options etc based on others results.... My poor result made me change my whole turbo setup and it has cost a stupid amount of $$$ to do, so make the right choice the first time, dont bolt on an unknown as you will end up regretting it in most cases...

Stageas are gas guzzlers with the stock turbo let alone a highflow. If your budget is tight just wait for a second hand Nistuned ecu and then get it tuned with your stock turbo at 10psi - they run too rich from stock anyway.

At some point you should replace your fuel pump with a new genuine Walbro or similar.

Then save up for a 3in turbo back exhaust

Look out for a second hand return flow fmic.

Then get the most bargain basement HyperGear Highflow and remember you will have to budget for a tune as well and wind it up to the max your stock afm and injectors will handle and you will have a pretty zippy family wagon.

This is for my R34, my stagea is staying bog stock as its my family car, the 34 is gonna be my daily/car :)

And im looking forward to it using less fuel than my last daily (rb30 Efi patrol) while being ten times quicker.

Sorry this is not std AFM.

AFM is Z32.

Also another customer made 260kw at 15 psi.

Std injector never lean out at 15psi.

      You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.

      R32 gtr transmission strength, billet plate

      By cosline · Posted

      Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
