powerfc $1100 + $350 tune

fmic $1200 supplied and fitted

exhaust $1300 supplied and fitted (3" turbo back with new front/dump pipe, cat, muffler)

boost controller $350 (second hand)

cold air intake with pod $485 ($200 for box, $85 for pod)

tyres $800 = 255's x 17 (guessing)

then save for

new clutch $1400

z32 airflow meter $300

injectors $700

cams $1400

turbo $2600

awesome...what sort of stats would i be lookin at roughly? 0-400 time....0-100 time...kw's...torque etc

scrap the pod, buy a decent panel filter and add an exhaust cam gear for $200ish (15kw cheap and easy).

suspension mods such as whiteline kit.

i would bleed valve $90

fmic $1200

exhaust $1000(approx)

fuel pump($300-400) (depending on if you plan to go a bigger turbo later on)

than save the rest of the $$ till you get money for a big turbo and intend to push big hp.

you can get tyres but with that set-up i gave you, you should make around 200rwkw on 12-14psi. you should be looking at mid-low 13's

[32vspecII]

your going to need some sort of engine management to see 200rwkw , the factory ecu will just run way to rich plus the fuel cut and speed cut issues .

I would get

powerfc $1100 + $350 tune

fmic $1200 supplied and fitted

exhaust $1000 supplied and fitted (3" turbo back with new front/dump pipe, cat, muffler in mild steel)

boost controller $500 (avcr)

this should hit 200rwkw

then you need

z32 afm

fuel pump

injectors

and a new turbo , gcg hiflow ($1800) would give you approx 250rwkw . Some sort of GT30ish turbo with custom manifold and external gate would see 300-320 . possibly more but 300rwkw would be the limits of the internals anyway . someone on this forum made 320rwkw with 750nm of torque off a similar gt30 setup , dont know if he had cams or not .

300rwkw should see very low 12s , possibly very high 11s .

With that (which is what i have) 0 to 100 in 4.88 and 1/4 in 13.4 but yet to run down the strip so times arent official per se but the car feels quick and fast

im at that stage (just without the cold air box, its arrived just not fitted) and ive got 172rwkw in non shootout mode. they backed off the tune cos the fuel pump was leaning out. injectors, afm, clutch and fuel pump are at max. im getting z32, fuel pump, cold air box and maybe injectors then will run down 1/4 dont see why i couldnt get a high 12 pass. later on if i was going to continue

tomei cams $1400

twin plate clutch $1200 (ish not sure exactly)

hks gt-rs $2600 or a garret equiv maybe gcg can give you a gt28 combo

whliteline works kit $2000 (i have sway and strut bars already tho)

you would want to make sure you had at least 550cc injectors (not sure if they would even be enough for 280rwkw)

with the gt-rs on 1.3 bar you should get 280rwkw. have seen a few members with gt-rs and simiilar config (most without aftermarket cams) get around 260rwkw. adding cams would bring on boost eailier and increase overall power

i wouldnt go gt30 due to lag required and manifold and ext gate needed, +$1000 easily for the gt30 even if the turbo price is the same

well thats using "adhoc" prices from the for sale and gcg prices off the top off my head. someone may have exact prices somewhere.

not really.

My first series 1 33 gtst had a full exhaust, pod filter + cai, frontmount, clutch, 14psi on a bleed valve, made 200.1rwkw on APC's dyno and I ran a 13.3 in it once, mind you the rest were mid to high 13's but it is possible with stock ecu, fuel, turbo...
