Hi guys,

Im investing in an R32 GTR very soon.

Im just wondering if you guys can give me an estimate what power the following mods could give me:

R32 GTR

- 2 larger turbos (like HKS GT2530 or garret gt2530) not a real huge upgrade, maybe even just hi-flow the stock ones

- Larger intercooler

- Upgraded clutch

- Full exhaust

- Intake mods + CAI

- Boost controller (not set at a crazy boost though)

- Maybe larger injectors if really needed

- suspension and brake upgrades as necessary

- aftermarket engine management (power fc?)

All this with a stock head gasket, bottom end etc.

G'day Barks,

Based on a good friend of mine doing the same level of work to his '97 33 GT-R, I'd say a real world ~550+hp if set-up & tuned correctly. HKS 2530's will make more though!

To make the most of a package like you've listed (& using the 2530's) I'd add cams to your list.

Edit - You might want to add a f/pump & reg' upgrade too.

Yeah mate.

The list Ethan_R33 has posted above (including the HKS2530's) has the potential to make ~550+hp (410kw) @ the flywheel.

Or ~300+kw @ the wheels.

Cams will certainly help the 2530's, & Z32 AFM's would be a good idea too!

The stock bottom end & HG will be fine as long as the tuning is set-up correctly.

Gday.

Im making a Real World 280 kw @ the wheels similar mods to those Suggested.... the HKS GT25/30s are a perfect street turbo, I love mine! :D

Mine also has HKS Step 1 Cams and HKS 1.2mm Headgasket.

Andrew, how's it going? How have you been?

Gezzz, that's one hell of a car your looking at.

If you end up getting it and I'm over your way, I might have to con you into taking me for a drive...

I love that feeling of my eyes getting sucked into the back of my head :);)

HJB can you provide some specs on your car, im running a HKS single t45s with a 76 comp wheel out of a t51 SPL and i have 310kw at all 4 at 17psi, what sort of boost you runnin, also when does your turbo ramp up, or kick in ??? Are you internals stock, im hoping to see 500 rwhp soon-bout 360rwkw on stock internals i think it can do it, any comments or suggestions??

There still is a question over what has been done with the motor, plenty of HKS gear, basically all the mods listed above plus more, however the cat seems to restrict the power a little, so a new one is on the cards, also at only 18psi. The turbo starts to create boost at about 3000rpm, and on full song soon after, at this point you just hang on for the ride! :eek1:

    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks  
    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
