R32 Coupe 30Det Project

[xmafia]

Hi all, just thought i would upload some photos on my project, still in its very early stages so there will be more photos to come as i progress.

Build Plan

Shell:

Going to strip it right down as its pretty rough and paint underbody black, engine bay and inner shell grey and exterior pearl white, unsure about bodykit yet. Probably get some vented BN front gaurds that i think are 25-30mm wider and a panel beater friend to roll the rear gaurds.

Engine:

RB30 block (currently still in GXE Skyline station wagon), Rebore to 86.5mm, 9.0-1 comp cp pistons, spool conrods (havent yet purchased but are planning to use these), ACL race bearings, probably N1 Oil pump and a crank collar.

R32 rb25de head, mild port and polish (hasnt been done yet as engine still together and running) maybe some 20det vavle springs as iv read they fit in these heads and are better than standard de ones.

Top mount steam pipe manifold, 3inch down pipe, 3inch front pipe with waste gate plumb in, tial wastegate (unsure what size it is yet), 440cc injectors, z32 afm, 300zx ecu chipped and tuned to 380rwhp on 98 with 16 psi (may go aftermarket ecu further along in build) and Garrett gt3582 turbo (was rebuilt less than two years ago and had the gt3582 comp wheel put on, and what looks like is a Air Research exhaust wheel with 0.70a/r) these things i have already purchased in a good priced package, but would like advice on the turbo as im looking at hopefully having 500rwhp at the builds end.

Also the turbo has no back and forward play and spins freely, but still has some side to side play, is this normal? or should i get it checked out as someone said it may need to have oil pressure in it to remove the play.

Front facing plenum (80mm throttle body maybe? would like advice on this as well) and front mount intercooler (want good response and minimum lag if anyone knows what would be the best size for my setup?) and 56mm twin core alloy radiator.

Suspension:

Should be getting a R32 gtr 5stud setup with brakes once i have the money for it, and going to get adjustables, unsure which brand but probably the cheapest that have a reputable brand names on them, unsure on wheels yet, maybe 18" x 10"?

There will be lots of other things along the way i wish to do like projector lights, and i will have to re do all the interior as lots is missing.

Would love to hear lots of advice, suggestions and opinions on my plan, and please remind me of anything i may be missing

Thanks all.

I initially thought that since it had a .70a/r it wouldnt be that laggy, but i dont know much about turbos.

Couple of pics of dyno sheet off the turbo when it was on a 25det S13 and an RS-R exhaust i picked up

Dyno sheet, new turbo line is my turbo.

RS-R exhaust, maybe a old one? dont know much bout these.
