$10,000 What Would U Do?

[ix9]

Strich9,

For 350rwhp to be reliable they really need a set of larger injectors to be dropped in.

I should rephrase that to "about" 350hp then

BTW: Much differnence in RB20 to RB25 injectors?

I guess the main point of my post was good luck controlling 350hp with stock suspension/springs/setup etc My suspension setup put a bigger smile on my face than my bigger turbo

[Cubes]

RB20 injectors are 260cc vs r33 items that are 370cc's.

Yep the stock suspension does get a little hairy.

Its really not that bad providing the shocks are in good nick and bushes are also.

[SKY 34]

to get 350 you'll need quite big bucks..

full exhaust $2k?

Turbo Kit + fitting $5k?

Injectors $1k?

rails, regulators, pumps $1.5k?

Intercooler $0.5k?

labour and such $0.5k?

TB, plenum, afm $1.5k?

ECU, if going cheapest pfc $1k?

tuning $0.4k?

adds up to more than 10k I say....can't make that much power with that money..also provided you still manage to get your hands on cheap pfc..those things went extinct.. next cheapest option will be the new wold 3D? abour 2.5k last I heard

[Bl4cK32]

who says he needs a 2k exhaust, throttle body and inlet plenum??

[SKY 34]

can do withoutl but best if you have them..I forgot to mention boost controler...

+ that is excluding suspension work, all the stiffening bars, 10k is a scraping amount..and from what I've seen in car mods, they'll almost always ran over budget

[Bl4cK32]

why would u pay 2k for an exhaust, and bother putting on the tb and inlet when he only wants 260rwkw when std are proven up to 300rwkw?

LOl to all the people saying selling it and buy a 32.

Yeah yeah sure, sell it and buy a R32 with only 75,000km's on it!

Yeah never mind the steering wheel which disintegrates in your hands because its actually done 350,000km's or the host of other problems your likely to encounter.

Sell it, buy a R32 and spend the $10,000 on generally maintaince just getting things working again.

LOLOL i have a good laugh at people who buy R32's thinking they only have a genuine 70,0000 odd km's on them, what a joke!

Pretty mutch every import has had the km's rewound.

Like most people have said:

Power FC + tune

Full 3" exhaust

suspension

FMIC etc etc

And enjoy your ride while people with 32's spend money just to get the car working as it should.

cheers

There are a lot of rebuilt r32's for around 10k....

if you really aren't keen to sell the car, and do want to chuck away your $10K then I say good on you.

if you want to do something a little bit different. I say hunt down a nice R33 GTR engine. whack in the RB26 with a decent clutch. re-use the stock GTR FMIC, put on some pods and a decent exhaust. put on some cam gears, get a PFC and get it tuned for around 1 bar boost (more if it has aftermarket turbos).

this will give you somewhere between 260 and 280rwkw and that great RB26 sound. plus it will be something a little unique.

it 'may' cost just over your $10K but I think you could definately have the engine and clutch fitted within your budget, then do the PFC, cam gears, exhaust etc later.

I realy like that idea ay.... hmmm i'll have a quick search on da net.... see what i can find

Oh yeah, thankyou for all of ur opinions, keep em coming.

[K_E_V_I_N]

Coilovers - 1400

Camber Arms - 200

Front Camber Adj Bushes - 300

Sway bars - 400

Front/Rear Strut Braces - 300

There's 2600 already spent on something more worthwhile than a boat with 350rwhp and no way to control it.

Add a nice set of rims into the mix - 2400

That's 5k

Now bolt-on a high flow - 1000

FMIC - 600

EBC - 300

PFC - 900

That's another 2800

That's almost 8k.

Now whack the last 2k on a nice front bar, some nice tint, and some skirts.

That should be enough - 350hp, GREAT HANDLING, and some decent looks.

Great advice, apart from the rims, i like the ones i have

the best thing about it is you can make your 250-300rwkw with a pretty stock RB26 so it should be very reliable. or if you dont have any money to mod it at all you will still be well over 200rwkw with just the most basic upgrade (cat back exhaust, pods, 13psi). it already has 440cc injectors so no need to change those either up to nearly 450hp at the engine. plus they sound awesome, and there are lots of choice with upgrades. more torque, more power, better sound, better re-sale. Plus dont forget with this idea you can sell your old RB25 for a couple of thousand.
