Hey guys. so just a quick rundown to whats been done to my 33 gtst:

Haltech platinum pro

850cc injectors

fmic

walbro in tank pump

haltech boost solenoid

intake

3" catback (turbo to cat is still stock)

on 12psi im making 233kw atw with full boost at 3500rpm (pretty sure turbo is stock, looks like it is, so wont go over 12psi)

at the end of the day, I want around 400kw atw, which is why im starting to search into building either a 30 block or 25 block (30 block seems more the better choice though). in the mean time I want to get a bit more oomph out of the car, so what I want to do is just some tomei poncams on, upgrade the turbo (either t04z or gt3076, but the 3076 wont get me to my final power goal down the track I dont think). at this stage, do you guys think putting in the haltech flex fuel and getting it tuned for full 85 tune and the 98 tune so I can then use 85 when I want? I was told by someone I need an 85 safe pump and injectors, but my tuner said I can do it with whats on it but didnt say if my injectors (power enterprise 850cc) and pump is 85 safe? cheers for any advice, just interested to see what people reckon, getting that extra power out of ya cars always exciting.

233 with stock turbo, ive never heard of this?

To4z and 3076 are very different output turbos.

400kw from std rb25 is def pushing it.

Have you ever driven 300kw on the street? Cause it is a pretty big figure really for street.

What makes you want 400kw?

What are you doing that makes you want that figure??

from driving mates cars is why i wanted that figure, but then the other night when i drove a 340kw 34 gtt and had no traction makes me think twice about building an engine and going high power, if I can get the std bottom end to 300kw safely (I know safely isnt a word used when talking bout stock bottom ends lol). which is why im wondering if it is safe to do 85 with my setup, and if its even worth it? and also, I know what you mean about my stock turbo, ive seen gt30's do less then that lol. I am not 100% its stock, think it MAY me highflowed (if so, then i can chuck more boost through it) what I am gonna do is pull the dump off when I get a chance and put a magnet to the exh turbine, hopefully it sticks ;)

I know this is all very exciting to make some more power but the best bet is to stop and do a lot of reading and researching. Everything you have ever thought of doing has been done more that once so take the time to narrow down what you really want before starting with a scatter gun approach.

ps. the magnet will tell you nothing but if the turbine housing is machined out then you will know more, if there is an ID tag (eg. GCG hiflow) then you can save your time with the dump.

Mate, highflows won't make that sort of power at that sort of boost level.

233rwkw at 12 psi is no where near a stock turbo. a GCG highflow will make around that power at 20psi. hypergear's will do it around 15psi.

So unless you have a massively inflated dyno figure I'd be willing to bet your turbo isn't stock! The guys on the forum are pretty damn good at identifying turbos if you want to throw up some pictures? I'm sure someone can figure it out,

its not stock turbo then!

I agree as above as it seems u dont really know what is needed or how to go about it...

Lots of reading will help you, others have done these things and their trial and error will help you understand what works and why it worked for their goal... Having a power level goal i dont believe is the best way to start if you havnt driven a car with power before, and i dont mean a half hour drive up the road in someone elses car.

Yep reading lots is your friend. Really sounds like you have no real set idea in your head of what you really want from the car. And research this forum is what you need to do to work out what you want out of it and how far you want to go. As not having a rough idea what you want out of it can end up very costly. For example you said your turbo choice is a 3076r or t04z, two completely different turbos which does not really make sense,lol. A 3076r will come close to 360rwkw on e85 setup correctly. So not far from your goal of 400kw. I wouldnt bother with a t04z as there a dated turbo now and will be rather laggy on a rb25. I strongly consider a gtx3071r, very good all-round turbo for a rb25 on e85. 340rwkw with awesome response. I could go on and on but I think you get the idea.

Cheers Josh

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
