Is This A Good Combination For A Streetable Neo

[bubba]

Well I am starting the saving process to make an order so that hopefully by year end I can have everything needed for my upgrade. Here is my base and what my plans are and let me know what you think of it.

Base:

ER34 RB25DET Neo - pretty much stock

NGK Iridiums BKR7EX-11 gapped to 0.8

HKS FMIC

Trust 13 row Oil Cooler

Two Core Radiator

Kakimoto 3.5" Exhaust

Blitz ECU

Blitz SSBC

Blitz Timer and Gauge

Trust Air Filter

Defi Boost, Oil Temp, Oil Pressure, Water Temp, EGT

Plans:

HKS Bottom Mount Manifold - Actually Have this already

GT3076R 0.82A/R with four bolt turbin housing and V-band add-on

External Wastegate - Not sure what size to go with and also what alternative can I use instead of the HKS that will fit properly on the manifold? I am thinking like a Tial 40mm, your thoughts??

Spare head with the RB26DETT ITBs and Intake Manifold setup - Help eliminate the pipe running over and also a better look same time

Keeping the TCS

RB26DETT 700CC Injectors with HKS/Tomei/Sard Fuel Rail and Resistor pack

RB26 Cam Cover and Center Plate - Bling

Keeping VCT Solenoid

Oil Return from Head

Cosworth Headgasket

Tomei Restrictor and block off as well

ARP Headstuds

Clutch ?????

I really don't want to get in the block if I do get some extra cash and I get an entire spare engine I will get the collar attached to the snout, freshen up the block with bearings, ARP mains and ARP rod bolts also try to adapt the RB26 sump as well. Can I get your thoughts on the setup and also what clutch recommendation for a daily driver that will be at some points be in standstill traffic and on hills as well, not looking for something aggressive but able to handle 450HP. Also, what wastegate option? My management will be a toss up between the Vipec and the Power FC, the Power FC being so expensive now I may swing the Vipec way. Please no bashing on the management but on all other aspects feel free .

How do you plan to keep traction control when you're fitting 26 ITB's? the Neo TCS setup is an additional butterfly in front of the standard throttlebody. Could maybe chop the casting and fit it before the 26 plenum chamber I guess.

lose the tcs

That was the plan, trim both the inner side of the throttle and have it tig on the end of the intake mani so that it would not look too long and ugly and simply extend the wiring.

US Ebay is your friend for skylines.

I'm in florida... and I just bought heaps of gear here, then sent it home.

The prices are so much cheaper for most things... Hell I bought 2 N1 oil pumps new for 140 each!!!

US spec turbo was better quality for the price than you can buy anywhere in Aus

Fuel gear, AFM's, gaskets etc... all cheaper, even considering the exchange rate and shipping costs.

What u smokin bro?!?

Last time i checked 450hp was more like 335kw so the GT3076R should do it ....but with lots of boost!!!

Last time i checked- 450hp was indeed 335kw. However it is NOT 335rwkw.

Now take off drivetrain losses etc and you are back to around 260-270rwkw give/take.

450hp = @ the motor. That is what the question/requirement was, so therefore that is what i used.

If the OP gets his terminology wrong, then that's not my problem

A GT3076 is a 600hp turbo, if you want 450hp, you do not use a GT3076

but why did ash suddenly change it from rwkw to fwkw? i wouls assume that the OP was chasing 450hp at the treads, which is around 335kw.

see above

I've never seen a 600hp 3076, that's 3040/30R territory. Proper 3076's are 500HP. A 3071 can get him 450hp, but not with much head room. A 3076 otoh is pretty much a guaranteed 450hp with supporting mods without that much difference in response.

id f**k off the gtr plenum as well and just get a plazmaman or something and definately lose the tcs.

Garrett rate the 3076 at 525 hp max.

From what I've read, the 3071 is a bit of a dog. Go the 3076 with the 0.63 AR.

Also go ext waste if you can, otherwise specify the 18 psi actuator.

I've got 555 now but expect to get 600 out of it that's for sure.

Always get the most out of life, isn't that what Mum and Dad taught us ?

If it blows, just get a GT4088R !

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

sorry, but have you ever driven a 300rwkw gtt with traction control? its 110% pointless....

i'd seriously look at not bothering with it

[TriniGT]

Hmmm I see where you're comign from now. Does it affect idling and driveability removing it and is there a proper way of removing it without the light coming on on the dash?

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

well you certainly wont have it when you have the 26 plenum... so that part is sorted

as for the light... remove dash - remove bulb - problem soved

3071 in my GTT if that helps, 278.5rwkw @ 17psi. So are we talking at the wheels here or not?

depends what you mean with no extra lag introduced by bigger turbo and now more balls. see the dyno curves on that link. its a little slower coming on boost than stock but thats about it and makes for a fun and drivable car ...

So a doggy 278.5rwkw
