what is best to do?

Hi Guys,

I have a r32 gts-t that has 158.8 rw kw's at the moment and Im happy although Ive got that urge for more power.

I was planning to buy a hks 2530 or 2535, some series 4-5 rx7 injectors, hks cams and few other lil bit for my current rb20.

A mate of mine lent me a hpi mag that has a r32 gts-t with a gtr engine transplant. The engine was basically stock with a huge cooler and re-mapped ecu and at 14psi he had 230 rw kw's. An rb25 gearbox would be needed too.

I think that the gtr engine option sounds mad, and having round 230 rw kw's is far from pushing that engine and the rb25 gearbox will hold up also.

What do you guys recomend?

Also if you know briefly what it will cost, please give me some idea.

Thanks

Mark

rb 20 is fine - if you dont wanna go over 230rwkw reliably...and u like revs

bigger motor is always more fun and more potontial for HP Decide what you want to spend then figure out how far it can get....oh yer dont expect change from 10k in my opinion...

a RB26DETT will set you back about $6.5K for a good condition one.

add another $1.1K for the RB25 gearbox

plus labour if you don't plan to do it yourself.

I'd personally get some cams and injectors as they are some relatively "cheap" mods that have a big impact. (Make sure your fuel is up to scratch).

thanks for the advice guys, I have come to the conclussion that the rb26 will be a waste of $$$ for my needs. I will also have to change my cooler and exhaust to suit.

I could get a rb25 with gearbox and fit a hks 2540, injectors and power fc, without having to change my cooler and exhaust.

do you guys think a rb25 r32 is worth it?

i like the idea of the stronger gearbox too

take it easy

Mark it might be easier to buy an "R" or a car already modified the way you want

true, buy a gtr

i am not that fussy and think an rb25 gts-t with a hks 2540 will do.

Anywhere from 200-240rw kws i would be happy.
