WOW tigersharkr33, all those brand name parts, the Japanese Tuning Shops would make a good profit out of that transaction. Why don't you use JE Pistons, Carillo Rods, Nissan Headgasket, Bosch fuel pump, Garret Turbo, Rochester Injectors, any brand exhaust, Mocal Oil cooler, Daikin clutch? All exactly the same stuff at half the price. You sure would be paying a lot for the boxes they came in, 'cause the stuff inside the box is the same.

Still, you do get bragging rights for the "names".

All jokes asside, I strongly suggest you check around, if you want performance you don't have to pay those unrealistic prices. If you want "brand names" then they are as good as any other rebadged product.

Hope that helps

Might as well just buy a Tomei engine in a box, Prolly cheaper, unless you are gonna do all the work yourself....I had a look down that road....heaps cheaper places to get power than the setup you have proposed....still be a good donk once you're finished though....

With all those mods why go a mild cam grind, why not go the whole hog, dont they make a 270? Maybe include a decent oil pump too.

Cheers,

i dunno if tomei makes GTS-t engines. i understand they make RB26DETTs, guaranteed to put out 800hp. they cost 40k to purchase.

but it's lots cheaper than building an 800hp engine bit by bit. they do not supply driveline parts, just the engine, so you're going to have to fork out somemore.

tomei has those engines ready to go:

-RB26DETT.............500ps/7500rpm

-RB25DET...............400ps/6500rpm

-RB20DET...............360ps/7000rpm

-SR20DET...............380ps/6200rpm

-SR20DE.................220ps/7500rpm

-4G63.....................360ps/6500rpm

also you can coustomize your won engine.

also top secret has some engine ready to go,we had an RB26DETT from top secret last year it was producing 1000hp

it coasts 65k.

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
