As suggested above, you should try to find all your own parts and save some money as much as you can. Use eBay to find all those cheap copy fuel pumps, plenums and exhaust manifolds.

That way they can charge you the time the job takes, plus the time to tidy up or repair the cheap part, charge you to replace the part when it fails and charge you all the labour again to fix it.

You'll save heaps.

Do it once, do it right !

It will cost you but it will be done properly.

yeh no that's not goin to happen build it proply the 1st time.

Excellent to hear.

If you find cheaper prices for parts they are offering, maybe ask them if they'll match it.

I don't doubt the parts list will be appropriate for the power you want to make but there are a lot of things involved in a build like that. Do you really need that plenum?

Do they do all their own engines or are the built somewhere else? What kind of warranty do they offer on their work (inc the engine) if any at all.

What kind of gaurantee do they give that you'll make the quoted power. It's a lot of money to spend only to fall short of your goal

They recently did a nitto rb32 build for a customer with an r34 gtr and oh my God so so much power..best part was customer had unlimited budget so they were able to do things properly.. Car drives like stock but when you floor it, destroys the road under it haha.

I thought you had a HTA3586?, anyways cams are to big for a start... looks like

a lot of money for f**kall gain..you seem to like to spend money for no apparent reason(and no i am not having a go at you

just having cars and mates with similair setups..thats total and utter overkill for the turbos you want, K.I.S.S, is what you want to do

quality parts that will do the job asked with overdoing/overkill them...you will spend twice as much for no reason or reliability..

You REALLY need to decide what you want before you start...

Just a quick one....I was reading through the list again and noticed you are only using 1000cc injectors and a pump that flows 400 L/min @ 60psi.

That pump will just scrape in at 650hp at the wheels on E85 so you should be ok for flow there but the injectors are really only good for 550hp on E85 so maybe you should ask them about 1600cc or 2000cc injectors instead?.

You can just bump the rail pressure up to make the injectors flow more but the pump will then flow less and it brings it closer to your 450kw margin. Just some food for thought anyway

to be honest I also thought they where on the smaller side if and when I Desideed to go E85 so yes bigger injectors I will get Edited by MRHD66

Honestly....I would develop a fantastic relationship with a workshop and get them to build the thing. Price sounds about right but its the things you can't put a dollar value to that are important. You take $1000 off the price somehow and eventually you will be paying $5000 back to them or someone else.

to be honest I also thought they where on the smaller side if and when I Desideed to go E85 so yes bigger injectors I will get

If and when? You're going to make 600hp at the wheels on 98? I applaud your courage

Can be done. Much safer on E85. The cubes should help but still.....

lol, so glad I'm not in the automotive industry anymore. People think you're ripping them off if you charge them for the time you spend sourcing parts. Then they say you did a shit job when the parts they supply that you've never used turn to shit, assuming they even give you everything you need. They also expect you to take up the warranty with the companies they bought the parts from :thumbsup:

    • Solid update, got all the downforces now.  You going to be running aus time attack again? love the jacking solution, spend the dollars on what makes it go fast is best way.
    • Back in January, I noticed my car felt noticeably weak. I had the injectors cleaned, which seemed to solve the problem -- until now. Recently, the car suddenly lost power again while driving. Suspecting the injectors, I brought it to the mechanic. He recommended replacing them entirely, saying the current ones were getting unreliable and fiddly to work with. I could not find a direct replacement for my current injectors. The closest match I found were 440cc injectors. This led me to look into the possibility of upgrading -- and of course, that would mean remapping the ECU. From my research I found: The OEM Part numbers are 16600-72L20 and 16600-72L21 Both the RB20DE and RB20DET use the same 270cc injectors. There are much better options out there over the old OEM injectors. Nistune could be a viable tuning option. While the RB20DE isn’t explicitly listed on their site, the ECU is essentially the same as the GTS-T version - just with a different map. The ECU code on mine is listed as supported. One concern is finding a tuner who works with Nistune. Aftermarket ECU like Haltech and Link, but this would be the most expensive choice (and possibly overkill for a mostly stock RB20DE) I admit that I am very new to the tuning scene and would appreciate any insight or recommendations regarding this.   These are some SAU links where I got some of my information from for reference: https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/380324-rb20de-injectors/ https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477396-factory-270cc-injectors/  
    • The inspectors are not forensic by any means but if you forge your documents and/or badgings on vehicle parts and are found out, the consequences are just far bigger than if you just run illegal parts. And their job quite literally is to cross reference what parts you got installed and what your papers say you got. Something as silly as your suspension being 1mm too low will fail you. Nonetheless I asked if someone knew the damn pipe and I certainly did not ask for smartassery or underhanded comments, no idea why you need to be told this. Great way to waste both our time.
    • As useful as you explaining what forgery is... But then again, I wasn't aware your inspectors were also forensic experts and inspect nameplates on each component to confirm everything is original. They must inspect roughly 3 cars a year at that rate. You're right though, my comment doesn't help you in anyway, so I'll go talk to my wall now. Cheers. 
    • Say that to the guy that is going to fail your inspection or tow your car for illegal exhaust modifications. If you have anything else useful to say, please go tell your wall.
