Hi all,

I have built up my engine with.....

-Weisco forged pistons (20thou oversized),

-bored and honed, balanced parts,

-shot peened rods,

-ARP rod bolts, head studs, exsuast studs, etc..

-Hi-flowed turbo,

-Jim Berry 'Full Monty' clutch kit,

-Walbro fuel pump,

-Fully rebuilt gearbox from 'Fizgerald Racing' (Awesome guys - race porshes, they know their stuff)

-3 inch custom exhuast with no CAT,

-Greddy timing belt and good old pod filter......

It's just a mild package but I also want to know your thoughts on what sort of power I could safely put through this setup with the right ECU and FMIC??

What else should I do?

I would like to get 250rwkws..... is it good for it??

Thanks guys,

I think that I could get over 250rwkws, good to get other peoples opinions....

Yeah, bigger injectors is probably a goa. The standard ones are getting old now and I think are around the 350cc mark???

Depends on the highfow turbo, thats what will limit your power, that and the injectors. Another limiting factor could be the cams, guys on here are getting good results from drop in poncams with the rest of your setup. The no=cat wont be giving you any power increase over a highflow cat, i would fit one.

'High-Flowed Turbo' doesn't really tell us much - More information would be needed to estimate the sort of power you can get our of the setup, however as has been said, 250rwkw is easy even on an internally stock RB25 :cool:

The guy who did my turbo said it was a stage 3 kit but I can't remember the exact details on what he said. I do believe now that 250 will be quite acheivable... prob more...

Thanks guys for the info

    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
    • Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...
    • Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
