If you're looking for around 280rwkw then an HKS 3037 would do the job quite nicely and have a bit of room to play with because it's around the biggest you'll get that can still have an internal gate and save money not buying the external seperately.

Would also go with the Power FC as there are a heap of good tuners around that won't have any troubles getting that sort of power at the wheels for you.

For those kind of figures you will definitely have to look at injectors and all the other upgrades to go with it but will be able to get away with stock cams.

I've got my internals just dropped in and am running a HKS 3037 with Power FC which will hopefully dynoed on friday to see what it will make (hoping for 280 - 300rwkw). When i get my figures i'll post them so there's another comparison for you. I wouldn't be expecting your internals to last for too long with that much power if they're still stock either.

yes what he said. I am using a GT30 garrett with external gate and at 1 bar with all the other goodies except internals it makes around 280rwkw at 1 bar (low boost setting). I do notice sometimes that on the pfc you get a knock reading of around 65 when giving it a hard time at the top of 3rd gear and u get the check engine light flash. So if you dont trash it 2 much ur engine should live awhile.

Easy way to get there - buy DoughBoys car, sell your car  Will save you alot of money.

Grepins 2835 makes an easy 280rwkw, with boost in quite early compared to GT30 or 3037.

INASNT, have you posted up a copy of your dyno sheet yet?  if not, why not?:P

I have posted my 312rwkw run in the vic section before from autosalon dyno comp at 1.4 bar boost.

Me waits for the posts about not bothering to relocate the throttle body...

dido buy Doughboys car, it ran a 12 flat first go, and is running well under what a HKS 3040 /can produce...currently has 280rwks (about?)

If you want to run an 11sec 1/4 i wouldnt be getting a brass button puck clutch, and id be looking at putting aside some money for good mechanical diff and suspension mods

Hi docile33, suggestions follow;

*ECU

Power FC is good, allow for Z32 AFM

*Turbo

Garrtett GT3040 external gate :aroused:

*Exhaust manifold

The standard one has to go:thumbdwn:

*Cams

Tomei Pocams, work with VVT, don't need adj pulley. :)

*550cc inj and new fuel rail

OK, they will do the job :D

*044 pump

OK, plenty of capacity :(

*600x300x90 fmic

What type, B&P or T&F and what brand?

What size pipework?

*brass button clutch

Personally I wouldn't trust a single plate clutch to do an 11 in a GTST. Plus brass button centre is very agressive. I would look at an OS Giken twin plate. :aroused:

*hks / trust type r bov

Irrelevant

*dump pipe

What type, split of combined?

What diameter exhaust pipework?

*relocated throtle bory to front of plenum

Yuk, why? :spew:

*ebc

It's your money.

*later maybe forgies

If the tuning is not spot on, maybe earlier (not later) :Paranoid:

*Tyres

Nittos or Goodyear drag radials

*Suspension

Whiteline springs and Koni shocks, keep the rear spring rate low. :uh-huh:

My 20 cents worth :cheers:

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
