Hey mate, good job on the new car. try type a few keywords in the search area and have a look at what others are doing. once you have a few ideas run em past people in here for there recomendations but you wont get many responses with such a broad question as people tend not to help people who havent searched at all. this place stores a wealth of info you just gotta find it!!

Goodluck!!

Pod filter (debateable)

Exhaust system (full turbo back 3 inch or so)

Front mount intercooler setup

Boost controller and run 10psi

From there I'd work on suspension...

Lowered springs & shocks to match/coilovers

You can search pretty well all of these in great detail on this site... that's the rough order I'd look into mods anyways

this guy is on the ball, just add aftermarket coilpacks and some decent tyres and u should have some fun with it.

ur looking arounf 5k + for that + install

dont go past 10psi - 12 psi on a standard r34 turbo either

put some LEDs in the dash cluster ... easy 8-10rwkw for < $50

On a more serious note .. if you don't want to spend much, start saving up for a new timing belt and water pump (major service) and do those first unless they've been done already. Oh and put some good oil in the engine and gearbox.

Performance mod? Get a high flow panel filter... the stockies are usually quite restrictive.

      No need to drill any holes. There's plenty of access to reach through and behind all of that steel to "push" from behind with a pulling action on the slide hammer. There's all sorts of attachments you can screw on the end of them.

      Yea the photos aren't the best. When I was pulling the bumper and headlights out there was a bodyshop guy looking on for it, there is a slight bend behind where the passenger headlight is, but we're talking a few MM and there is a little bit of a bend for the reo. That said it's supposedly well within the "Drill a hole in it and pull it out with a slide hammer to be close enough" and be on our way. The other option is to buy a GTR reo for the GTR bumper bits but this is a $2000+ fix for something Mr Hammer can probably do 99% of the job for and everything will/can line up pretty closely-to-good-enough.

      That's a write off for sure... Part out? 😛 I kid. It looks like the rad support has a minor minor bend in it too where the rep support sits near. Could just be the photos (and me not wearing my glasses right now). Worst case is you can buy a new radiator support, have it swapped over, and leave the car in paint jail for 12 to 18 months while you build the motor to handle twin turbos or a Harrop SC...

      It seems the definition of "Gregging" something might need to be expanded?

      R32 GTR - Where to begin

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      This is why I suggested that there is really nothing that can safely be done in the engine bay at this budget level. Just the work to reassure yourself that the engine won't instantly crap itself the moment the boost gets turned up will wear out the piggy bank long before the first turbo gets installed. Spend $10k and still not have any extra performance? My tip is a version of our standard advice from 15 years ago about buying a GTR, which is not to buy one unless you can afford to buy two. The new version is not to modify a GTR unless you have all the funds required to do it all at once, properly, and enough to rebuild it after it blows up.
