For starters, a stock GTT makes about 170 kilowatts I think which is around the 230 HP mark anyway so you might even achieve your goal of 300 HP with some minor upgrades such as better airfilter, intercooler, exhaust and a good tune so you may not need a bigger turbo upgrade as your goal is fairly low.

Having $4,000 is a good start. But if you’re chasing bigger power,  I suggest you look up some performance workshops and ask them for prices on some turbo combo upgrades but bear in mind you may have to upgrade other things like brakes and will need a tune. There are too many options and opinions so you’re better off talking directly to the people that will do the work for cost estimates.

Try giving Chasers Motorworks, Performance Plus or Advanced Turbo Performance a call if you’re closer to the western suburbs.

Good luck!

Stock Neo is 206 kW at the engine.....therefore about 150 at the wheels.  The most they can be pushed to without risking turbo destruction and/or running out of injector is ~200-210rwkW (and more like a realistic 200rwkW, not an optimistic 210!).  That's well shy of 300HP at the wheels.

Minimum spend is;

Hypergear highflow, ca. $1k

Injectors, ca $600

Fuel pump, ca $300

Z32 AFM, ca $300

Nistune + tune, ca $1200.

But you wouldn't do these things without an exhaust and frontmount.  If you have them already, great, but otherwise you need another couple of thou.  $4k is just a little bit shy of what would be good to have to spend.

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
