hey i got this r32 gtst coupe, rb20det, completely standard, except carbon fibre clutch.

The mods I wanna do:

Chuck a big front mount intercooler, then a full exhaust system

then I was thinking about chucking a RB25 turbo on

at the moment its boosting roughly 7PSI (slow :) ), but with this set up I reckon I could wind the boost up to about 13PSI, so it will go twice as fast :D

should cost me about $3500 or so give or take a couple hundred

what do you reckon, would this be good, and would it be safe to run 13PSI? OR would a different turbo be better?

oh and obviously add a POD filter.

i agree with simon 32. i boosted 12-13 psi. it becomes guttless, like hitting a brick wall. u really need an ecu that has been tuned to cope with it. but at 10psi the rb25 turbo pulls and pull.

now keep in mind i have a r33, not r32.

anyone else notice that he said it will cost him about $3500... what the!!!

r33 turbo - $350

just jap fmic kit - $400 delivered

no point gettin a tune if you havnt changed the ecu or added a piggyback. o and if your only gettin 7psi...you should you dont have a r33 acuator on it? r32 should run about 10.

    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
    • The only high-power RB I've personally seen go pop after running for all of an hour on a dyno was built by B2R, while being remotely tuned by B2R. The only wastegates I've ever had leak like a sieve, return, still leak, return and get shipped back the wrong ones were from Turbosmart. The only final drive that I've ever purchased that were unusable, twice... were from Speedtek. The only seat mounts that I've ever purchased that placed the seats in the door frame were from Crank Motorsport. The only poorly designed parts that I had the manufacturer confirm should have been designed as per what I mentioned were from GKTech. The only ECU I've had firmware updates consistently break things are Haltech. The only catch can I've purchased that didn't fit in its advertised spot was from ATP. So forth and so on... Moral of the story, doesn't matter where it's from. Do your research beforehand and stick with products and companies you've trusted in the past.    @joshuaho96 If you want it done right, do it yourself.
    • Something coarse-ish. 180 is good.
    • I was surprised to see all the quick Jack models at the same prices on there. But yeah, grabbing one at 20% off would be great.
    • I wonder if these would be discounted when they have their big sales? because if so would be a great time to actually buy them could even end up cheaper than buying from quickjack in the end.
