your best options would be the pfc, dont waste you time with anything else!!!!!!!!

steve

Cost would be a factor.

AP engineering Power FC ( required for an RB20 ) would be around $1300-$1400 plus tuning of $450 ish.

Remap including supplying the necessary board hardware is around $880 all up including tune.

Any retuning is based on an hourly rate same as tuning any computer and both Lucas's Bikiroms and Glenn's Lumpyroms have had considerable success in high power applications .

Lee Sampsons 470 rwhp SR20 DET and 11.18 1/4 mile on a Lumpy rom is testament to that.

Or Adam Trewhellas RB25 Cefiro with 365 rwhp and stays on the rev limiter for most of the Wanners drift track.

Only down side is in WA you are limited to the 2 shops above as Denver mentioned so if you hate us both , your in trouble for retunes :P

spoke to hyperdrive about it.... sounds pretty good. only downside i guess is cost of reprogramming when upgrading components.

didnt really want to spend 2k on pfc .

does 300hp@ wheels sound a bit far fetched? (already have gt2530 and gtr injectors)

Cost of retuning is no different than any other computer. Rate is $140ph on the dyno and takes about the same time as tuning an Autronic/motec/wolf/power FC.

300rwhp is achievable , I have 290rwhp in an RB20 with low mount and external gate.

( Well I did till the turbo blew on Saturday night :) )

One of our custom made hiflo ones using a stock R33 GTS-T turbo.

No mods to be needed and dump bolts straight up. $1600 which sounds expensive except every other turbo avaliable requires dump/intake or water line changes.

We weld the gate up and run external gate mounted on a stock manifold.

Relatively cheap but a little laggy atm until we sort of few other things out.

And yes , it is on stock internals and running 16-17psi.

    • These are small points I should actually add to my original post. GKtech makes an extended slave line for this conversion. It's what I use, and it works well. You'll also need a CD009 slave cylinder.  S/R Chassis Z33/Z34 Conversion braided clutch line As for transmission sensors, you'll need to both extend the wiring and replace the connectors. I can't recall which is which, but one is your neutral switch and the other the reverse switch. As they are just switches, just test for continuity with your transmission in neutral or reverse to figure out which is which. Connectors:  VQ35 neutral Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties VQ35 Reverse Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties 
    • I’ll try and see it could be the release bearing. As for the 4th gear grind maybe clutch doesn’t disengage properly cause it is slightly like very slightly hard to go into first could be due to the slab cylinder pin being short uni clutch is a twin plate.   Ive attached some assembly photos hopefully you can open the link and see maybe detect what’s wrong https://share.icloud.com/photos/0dc2YvW__Hl6jl-l2_0jejjpg https://share.icloud.com/photos/09e0jkWOK-vP48c1cfY6u3ViA https://share.icloud.com/photos/0b4rDmh5R7pK7fb1VtND73a3g https://share.icloud.com/photos/05eeUi_6dC4DVi80jOUYDgb0g https://share.icloud.com/photos/06335TgY1XxyIJal_wkdQLhzw
    • Yeah for sure that is peddle adjustment 
    • What are your thoughts on this after having it for a while, worth getting?
    • Downshifts are harder on transmissions than upshifts, the input shaft naturally slows down once disconnected from the engine so the synchros aren't doing all the work. There's no "natural" tendency for an input shaft to increase RPM. Something is not right there, I don't have a great answer on what. You can try a dedicated GL4 75W90, I plan to switch to Motorcraft XT-M5-QS which is supposedly a very good 75W90 for NB Miatas which have a weirdly sensitive transmission from the factory. I would chase down why your clutch is making a hissing noise, that's not normal. It might be no big deal but in the absence of anything else to investigate I would look at that.
