coils won't get you any more power mate. only if your old ones are breaking down.

you'll struggle to make anymore than 350hp on a highflow turbo. you'd need something like a gt3071r or a hypergear atr43tggathkj. thingy. if you run any more boost than 18 you'll be out of the efficiency range of the turbs.

but looks like youve got most of the basic supporting mod!

+1 for big clutch.

ps keep in mind 400hp is getting close to the limit of the stock engine!

thanks people and i forgot i have a exedy heavy duty cushion button..any other mods i havnt done?

well you've only just scratched the surface and the mods you've listed are practically bare minimal requirements...

and as others have said you wont make your goal power figure with your list of parts...

I guess we could start listing suspension, brakes and cooling mods to make it so the power can be used and controlled, but Im sure youve already done that yeah, right, yep done that uhuh...

whats with this magical 300 number anways...?

why do you want 300?

Check out the hypergear thread if you want to keep the stock manifold and dump. Check out the kando thread if you dont. I vouch for the hypergear atr43g3, with those cams, you should see 300rwkw. You can install it yourself if you're confident enough and have some tools. I hear lots of stories about those return flow coolers overheating, not sure about the blitz ones.

    • Well, hydraulic lifters will get noisy if they are dirty/fouled in some way, and exactly how that manifests will depend on exactly what schmutz is where. There is a procedure on here somewhere for dismantling and soaking/cleaning them. Replacing them with new is about 50% of the work and about 5% of the money!
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers  
    • This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?  
    • Sorry for reviving an old post, but I'm having the same hot idle tick issue. Did anyone ever find out what it was?  I have checked/ replaced Injectors Coils checked Lifter clerance (is at zero) Checked Cam lobes Replaced exhaust gasket and studs Would appreciate any advice this is driving me nuts  
    • There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
