It won't make anywhere near 350 at the wheels... and if it does it will only make it once and put a mushroom in the bonnet...............

I reckon you could get 270-280rwkw on 18-19psi if you get a good tune and everything goes well. Those turbo's are good for power perhaps not as responsive as a 28 series but will still be a quick street car with a decent seat of the pants feel which is what we all like afterall.

Provided you don't cain the arse out of it everynight it will last no probs.

I agree with those who state the kw figure is not the target.

A friend just rebuilt an RB25 in his R34 and it only made 220kwatw. He did a full rebuild with forged internals, metal head gasket, he has a power FC, boost controller, oil cooler, front mount, exhaust, hks turbo and tomei cams (not sure which ones) and expected a far higher power figure. But it's grunty as, hits 200km/h before you have time to blink and it's heaps torquey. More than enough for the street and an occasional track day. IMO, stick to midrange driveability, not peak power.

Yeah it all depends on what you wanna use the car for... I'm just trying to see how much power i can get out of her before she pops lol... then I'll do a forged 25/30, just for less lag...

My car isn't bad to drive... fair bit of lag but once you get up on boost it's all worth it... only problem is getting traction when it starts spoolin.

      R34 power steering

      49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.

      Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf

      Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.

      Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.

      Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
