First Mods For R32 Gts-t

[leethal]

Hey guys, just signed up here today and i am currently in the search of a r32 gts-t, hoping to get a nice stock one. What r some of the first mods for max kws. Ive heard a 33 turbo and intercooler goes well on a 32 giving u the option of windin the boost up reasonably. Just keen to see ur ideas, btw what does a standard 32 turbo run down the quater? or 0-100 speed?

zorst, cooler, management, fuel pump, boost control, RB25 turbo, tune..

a r33 stock cooler is a useless upgrade on an r32..

[ebola]

1) search button

2) intake (filters)

3) exhaust

4) intercooler

5) real mods begin (turbo, fuel pump, injectors, suspension, brakes)

ebola is an intercooler, exhaust and air filters not a real upgrade. i think they are. not sure what you would call them.

[ebola]

mates '92 gts-t:

Non standard fuel pump (type unknown - came with the car)

boost controller (14 psi)

3in turbo back exhaust

K&N filter (in the airbox, not a pod filter)

160 rwKw

Though to be fair, his boost gague was out, and it was running on 17psi. How the standard turbos stayed put, I'll never know.

Yes, they are real upgrades (and first on my list - when it Finally Gets Here), but they are all (relativley) easy to do.

I guess the fuel pump is too (my vote is inline booster pump), but I wouldn't be able to change the injectors without trepidation. Guess it depends on how mechanical you are (or how loaded your wallet is)

how much boost can the stock 32 turbos take?

[krush]

most people say 14psi is pretty much putting it on the line.. yet others have had it run 14psi fine for long periods while others again have had the turbos let go at lower 12psi or such. i think 14psi is risking the turbo blow, but you might get lucky or unlucky and have it at that or let go on even lower psi..

[Jago]

don't keep it on 14.5 psi or go over at all if you want your standard R32 turbo to last.

My r32 had the following mods- Intercooler, hi-flow turbo, 3"exhaust, and Microtech. Made 190rwkw and ran 12.9@ 117mph. So the RB20 can perform alright with limited mods.

[SimonR32]

what about injectors, pump, clutch, pod filter etc etc etc sky30???

190rwkw would struggle to let u run a 12, let alone at 117mph

i think ur in dream land

[Ronin]

this is my 32 with rb25 turbo, afr's are rooted on this run but they are all good now thanks to a new 040 pump.

[sky30]

what about injectors, pump, clutch, pod filter etc etc etc sky30???

190rwkw would struggle to let u run a 12, let alone at 117mph

i think ur in dream land

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Yes had a POD filter.

Injectors, pump and clutch were all stock , AFR were statring to get lean at around 12.2:1 so the injectors were at the limit.

Yes it made 190rwkw, and yes it Ran a few 12.9 seconds passes.

Why is that so hard to beleive???

[Freeman]

Was there any other mods like weight reduction or anything? I think you did well to get that time with 190Kw too. Not saying ur a B.S artist though

[Cubes]

190kw will get you in to the high 12's with a nice 60ft and nice shifting.

The R33's can do it, so why not the R32's with slightly less weight and a lower diff ratio.

Alot has to do with the driver, Sky30 being a country boy... hrmm it can't be that then... hehe

[Freeman]

R33's can get 12.9 with 190kw?

[Cubes]

Generally no.

[Roy]

That is pretty big mph though for a 12.9?!?! I dont doubt you can do a 12.9 with basic mods and only 190rwkws, but that mph suggests you have a little more then 190rwkws...or so i would have thought.

[Beer Baron]

117mph sounds close to 240rwkw+ than 190.

[Munna]

yeah I dont question the 12.9 but 117mph? my r33 does 13.3@113mph with a g-tech it messures your top speed at the end of the quarter at the race track it is measured differently and gives you a lower mph reading than your top speed.

cheers

[SimonR32]

are u sure it wasnt a 12.9 @ 107mph???
