So let's say you have a 93 GTST, bone stock RB25 DET. You don't want a alibaba build but a budget build with quality parts. What would use to get to a dependable 350 wheel horse power vehicle? I am new to the skyline world, mine is on order at the moment and about 5 weeks out. So far, below is what I have picked up that I would need but I have no clue what parts/brands etc. Again, keep budget in mind if at all possible. No I don't want to LS it, thanks.

1. ECU (Haltech?)

2. Intercooler (what brand?)

3. Exhaust (trying to find a used one currently in good condition)

4. Intercooler (what brand, which model?)? 

5. Injectors? (650? 700?) Max I would put the car to is probably 425hp or so. So, I don't need some crazy.

6. Fuel pump?

7. Manifold?

8.

9.

10. What am I missing? ^

Thanks for anyone that takes the time to share adult responses and assistful input.

adding info

Others will know better than me, but I'd guess a gtst will get to 260kw with a high flow standard turbo, powerfc, exhaust and possibly injectors. This is a well trodden path

Australian prices or ridiculous American prices mate?

God u Americans are lazy.

it takes more than 10 minutes to read through threads, see what has and hasn’t worked for various people.

you want people to spoon feed u all the answers.

keep reading, Google the brands people are using for various parts and then find out who can sell it to u the cheapest

All of this. You will need intercooler and larger injectors. Add e85 for around 300rwkw

You’ll need a precision 6870, 6 boost manifold, twin gates, 4in exhuast, cams, intake manifold, injectors, 3 fuel pumps, 100mm front mount intercooler, ecu, clutch, probably the a mechanical center put into the diff and you’ll definitely reach your 350hp goal with that

Ah the ignorance of little kiddos. 😂 

 

Thanks to those that are helping and not still sucking on mommies titties 

Good luck with trying to find a good used exhaust in America. If only there was a way to make one.

I like how your thorough list has intercooler on it twice. Seems like you are really doing your homework.

 

 

 

Also please keep in mind looking to have a dependable 28 year old car that is going to also make more power than stock and that has had the speed wound back a couple of times is a fairly  unreasonable ask.

Adult responses are always available, to those who bother to research, at least a little, first, Sarcasm is reserved for Oxygen Thieves. After all its a turbo charged straight six engine, NOT a Formula one conundrum.

You got it precious!

 

Triggered you so much, you feel the need to keep on and on. Can’t get me out of your mouth: 😂

Haha.  You really are going struggle mate. Best of luck with the beast when you get it. Hope it's not too rusty and hasn't done 500,000ks {odometer will show between 70,000 and 140,000 regardless)

 Is the car you are getting an auto?

This guy is definitely going to have all sorts of pain owning a car like this.

You have to upgrade pretty much everything to get 260kw. The only difference between what you need for 260kw and 560kw is the engine build part. Still need every supporting mod, and buying a 260kw turbo is much the same price as a 560kw turbo.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
