Hi guys. Did some search already and i'm also new to GTR world. Only driven Bimmer since i got my license 6yrs ago. And now own a E39 M5 and a newly accquire R33 GTR.

I hope everyone could take a few sec and let me know what parts i need to complete my target HP.

I'm not looking for anything over 550HP but i want a more balance and lively engine setup and easy to handle so basiclly i'm looking to get 420BHP to 480BHP.

My engine has been rebuilded by the previous owner and is now being run-in. But i need a new turbo as the seals are leaking and got some shaft play already.

So here is my plan-to do mod list :

1. HKS Silent-pro exhaust ( 80 - 115 )

2. Garrett GT2860-7

3. Koyo 52mm Rad.

4. Upgrade hose all around the engine

5. Oil cooler

6. Mines VX-ROM

Here is my list i don't know if needed to reach my target,need some opinon :

1. Mines front pipe pro ( 70x2 - 80 )

2. Mines outlet pro ( 70 )

3. Injector 550cc

4. Tomei oil pump

5. Uprate fuel pump

6. Nismo intake plenum

Here is what my car has now :

1. Fully rebuild to stock spec engine.

2. N1 water pump

3. N1 oil pump

4. Apexi intake

5. Apexi 3" catback

Please give me some suggestion guys. Specially the mines front pipe and outlet,i got a friend who got them for sell at a very good price so i want to know if i should get it or not :):D

Thanks for your time :P

^ pretty much that.

But from your list the things you do not need are:

Mines ECU - Get a proper ECU

Nismo Plenum - Factory is fine

Tomei Pump - The N1 pump you have now is fine

And use Garrett -9's, not the -7s.

    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
    • Factory LSD is supposedly a 2 way with a very conservative cam. If you've already tried adding friction modifier to the diff oil and it still locks up too much for your liking you might want to adjust the ramp rate on the cam to be more like OEM instead of reducing initial torque even further. People claim the 8 kgf-m disc kit for the OEM LSD is still very streetable but I've never been able to compare everything side by side on my own.
    • Oh man, at least it sounds they've accepted they stuffed up and not put it back on you...could see some confusion if they asked if it had a hardtop or not, and you've answered truthfully but maybe not answering their real question which is what roof did it have from the factory! Glad your keeping it N/A 2.5
    • Nah, I much prefer colour matched Talking about colour matching stuff, the new/used boot lid turned up, all painted up perfectly......aaaannnndddd, it's for a power retractable hard top, not a soft top.....LOL They are now sending a boot to fit a soft top.....,  whilst frustrating, life is like that sometimes, sometimes you just need to dodge, duck, dip, dive and, ummm, dodge.
