Im considering upgrading turbo and doing some mild work to the engine.

Just wondering, if i just get a new turbo now, what would I be able to consistantly run as a daily drive, until I can afford internals?

The Car currently has:

3" All the way

FMIC

PFC

10psi

260rwhp stock turbo

Looking at getting HKS2835r Kit

What should I do to the engine first to make it more stable? I have NFI where to start??

Recommendations? Suggestions? etc.. Thanks in advance.

it depends on the motor condition, how hard you will drive it.. etc..

i've seen a 33 running ~410rwhp and its still living..

and then ive seen a ~350rwhp one go pop too..

do you have an aftermarket ecu? you will probably need one to tune it properly and safely too.

it says pfc..

i cant read at 6:23am, so nyeh!

for the upgrade you would probably need fmic, pfc, new fuel pump would be a good idea, possibly injectors, and a Z32 AFM..

but you have the pfc and fmic, so just look at the AFM, fuel pump, and pssibly injectors depending on high many horsies you want!

Nismo 550cc or 740cc Injectors

Z32 AFM

Apexi Pfc (or similar ecu)

Nismo Fuel Pump (or similar larger fuel pump)

Some Sort of Boost Controller

Heavy Duty Clutch

Aftermarket Rims (you cant get traction with 300rwhp+ unless you got some bigger than stock rubber)

Coilovers

im running 337rwhp @ 16psi on basicly the mods i have listen above (engine is stock/unopened), if you have the car tune with a good AFR 11/11.5 : 1 ; the engine should last untill you get the cash for a rebuild (but there are also the unknowned factors which can have blew a few peoples engine )

Good luck

p.s by hks gt2835 r do you mean gt2835 pro s?

I have just over 410rwhp on stock internals apart from cams and it is running fine with a knock reading that maxes out in the teens. There is also a guy in the east claiming to have run 596rwhp on stock internals.

i can pop stock turbo'd 25's :)

:)

here is the thread...it is a good laugh reading some of the posts. Starts at 498 and then I am sure in there somewhere it's 596rwhp with NOS.

Would you like the video clip of either runs.If you do send me an email address

The 502 Hp on 18 psi which i run 10.8 @ 129mph on pump fuel & Manual with MT slicks

The 591 was a run with 100 shot nitrous which i used for burnouts and f**king around and in the end i Bent a rod.but still lasted me around 8 months of stuffing around and all was done on pump fuel.

my New engine is making 707 rwhp but its a race motor with gt42r turbo

It certainly is a sh*t load of power through the standard internals. :)

Look. if you want power and lots more of it you must understand a simple rule.

More power breaks more things more often therefore power = money.

If you don't have the money to build a strong engine yet then you won't have the money to fix all the other things that big power will end up needing.

There are lots of guys who start off asking the wrong questions. Like " How much power can I make?".

Look at what you want to do with the car first, what is the direction yo want to go in etc.. After you do this you might even find the car you have is not the right starting point and another vehicle would do better.

As a daily driver ,and by that I mean giving it some on occasion and expecting the car to drive a substancial number of kms, you ought not to try and push the envelope on the stock internals much over 300. This is if you want to use the term 'low risk'. The 2835 can be tuned under this limit (as any turbo can be to some extent) with the down side being lag over the factory unit and ultimately a very modest improvement in top end. Cams would also help make the power earlier in the rpm range and with less boost required, all good to help the engine live longer. BUT why is the 2835 the turbo to have? What do you want to DO with the car?

Theres alot of SAU MEMBERS WHO WITNESSED THE POWER AND THE TRACK RUNS

    • No. GKTech arms have spherical bearings in them. No bushes. You will not need bushes for those arms. The sphericals are a bit of a maintenance nightmare. I have replaced all of mine several times in the 5 or so years I've had them, and I have the arms out regularly to clean and lube the balls. Worth the pain on an R32, because the standard arm design is trash. If you need the camber adjustment, there are other options (than the GKTech ones), although I would still lean towards and prefer the GKTech ones, even with the maintenance load of the sphericals. The caster adjustment is also highly valuable, allowing for setting the car up to drive straight. There are a million options for these, including the GKTech ones. I've had Tein rods on mine for 20 years and the balls are much less trouble in that location. Never given me a moment's pain. All positives, no negatives. I consider them compulsory.
    • Lol yeah I ordered the clips mentioned and as far as the amayama diagrams go i think thats all I'll need. Fogured id ask, sometimes people's first hand experience doesnt always match up to diagrams haha, i guess I'll wing it and worse comes to worse I'll just deal with it as I go
    • Thanks for all that information I appreciate it. To answer your questions: - Yep that's what I mean. These guys are professional painters to so I must be missing something. It's a bit hard to explain. - With the primer landing on clearcoat, I make sure that the surrounding clearcoat is scuffed to 240 grit as my epoxy primer says that I only need to sand the area to 240 grit. - Yeah so similar to the first question, assuming that the paint landed on the unscuffed clearcoat because I've seen that happen. - Yep I want to prep the surface in that order. Only reason because epoxy primer will protect it from rust and I need that atm with this crappy Sydney weather. I think I was worried about time, if I try to put the filler down but screw it up somehow and I don't have time to sand it off and reapply it then need to put primer later that it might start to rust again so I wanted to apply the primer as quick as possible to not deal with rust.  - I just deleted some answers, I just realised after watching a video and what you said about looking at the data sheet, that I need to read the data sheet on the specific filler I'm using. It's possible now that I put epoxy primer first was a waste of time and need to go to bare metal lol
    • I did. I went to a suspension guy and he told me because I don't have adjustable camber arms it's the reason why my car veers towards the left if I take my hands off the wheel but if I drive my other every day car and take my hands off the steering wheel it goes completely straight. I think it's common with Skyline's. In order to fix the problem, I likely need gktech camber arms then nismo bushes since I have poly bushes atm, then a wheel alignment after that. With my car if I take my hands off the steering wheel on a really bumpy road before stopping at a light I have to hold my steering wheel somewhat tight otherwise my car will legit just go completely in the other direction quite quickly and I'll slam into something lol instead of stopping straight. I Believe this YouTuber had the same issue and fixed it with gktech arms. At timestmap 6:05 he talks about how the car doesn't veer anymore after installing these arms.  
    • hello! does anyone have a schematic that shows how to test the blower motor resistor for the vac system? i believe the part# is 27761-15U00. I think the resistor is toast, but would like to be able to test it somehow before i embark on the journey to find a new one. cheers! 27761-15U00
