i've got a stardard R32 at the moment.

what kind of power can i expect from this setup (safely)

Also, will the stardard clutch hold? should i wait for it to start sliping then get a new jim berry one?

Car should be great as long as you have a healthy engine.

You should probably upgrade the fuel pump and injectors just so it can all be done in one tune.

I just have power fc, 550cc injectors, front pipe back exhaust and run 1 bar boost = 225awkw and 253 rwkw.

Injectors should be fine. I'm not chasing anymore power.

change the rod bolts on your engine, they are the weak point in the bottom end, put in the injectors, and the pump as stated above, your car is old and will suffor easily from fuel starvation due to the old pump.

that's pretty random, suggesting changing something in the bottom end for someone who's only doing bolt ons. I think if he was going to do that there's a load of other things he should do while he's down there.

But randomness aside you should definitely run a new fuel pump and consider having your injectors professionally cleaned and flow tested or just drop some sard or nismo injectors in.

Standard clutch will already be shagged if it's not a new one. Probably best to budget for that straight up.

Just change the rod bolts? wtf is all i have to say to that.

Its totally uselsss unless your doing a bottom end rebuild. Why do something that requires motor out/apart just to change a few bolts?

2+2=15 on that one.

Anyhow, firstly you need a full exhaust to go with the front pipe etc.

You didnt list it, so ill assume you dont have it.

You'll need a clutch also.

Injectors will limit the power you will make with the R34N1s as they will make more power than the stockers can handle, but if you keep power to 270-300rwkw then you will be fine.

You'll also need a fuel pump

      Probably being in IT for 2 decades, and spending my time documenting trees worth of shit and also being on the receiving end has taught me a thing or two.

      Why's that depressing, wouldn't it be able to go indefinitely until the battery gets old and craps itself? If it's constantly on charge/maintaining charge, won't that keep the battery healthy?

      One of my concerns initially was if something catches fire somehow.

      I think I know what you mean. I saw the same thing a while back, I think either the images on the website were wrong or the model was slightly updated. It was weird when I first looked at it, same model but different looking unit.

      Using Trickle Chargers

      At work we've got a smaller version of the Projecta that Duncan posted above. At home, I have an ALDI trickle charger. Ive had it for about 8 years now. Only issue with it, it's a smart charger, so if the battery is dead, it won't bring it up, but I have a variable power supply that I limit current on, and set to a max of 14.4v. once it starts charging up, I put the aldi unit on and remove the variable PSU. ALDI one will do 12v, or 6v, then has mode for "car" "motorbike", and "snow". With car or motorbike more for its internal workings, and snow is the trickle mode. I have a battery in the garage that lives on this charger for about the last 18 months now on Snow mode. When I need to charge my other batteries (eg, ones that have died in a car), I get them started and then run it on car mode. Voltage is always sitting really nice, and hasn't killed a battery yet. that charger isn't good for things like Lithium batteries etc, I'd only use it on Lead Acid.
