Just A Little Question On 12 Second Gtr

[skyline_canada]

Well I'm about to get a 90 gtr, and its completely stock, how can i make it into low 12's with 4 grand, can someone guide me through with parts to get and good sites to get them from. And is it even possible to get low 12's with 4 grand and not having parts break down easily?

I dont want the car just for track i just want it a low 12 second car for a driven car day to day but go to the tack 5 times a year. Would I have to focus on putting aftermarket clutch etc?

Again like i said before, if anyone could help that would awesome!

PowerFC, adj cam gears, exaust, and wind the boost to 1bar, with a good tune will make around 250rwkw and will get you into the low 12's.

powerfc, exhaust and 1bar of boost will definetly get u into the low 12s, cam gears are not necessary.

a close friends car has only these 3 modifications (standard clutch still) and it has run a 12.3 with room for improvement. And that was a 33gtr, a 32 is lighter so should be easier to get a low 12.

so powerfc = 1000

exhaust =1500

tune = 600

around 3000 is enough money.

get the powerfc from the forum, any exhaust shop can do the exhaust, and the tune is your personal choice.

you don't even need a powerFC - i don't have one, just adj cam gears. but either/or. Aim for around 250rwkw and you'll be into low 12s.

I think they mean 250 awkw

I forecast you blow a turbo before you run a 12, watch the ceramic little bastards, I was in a 32 on the weekend when one let go. Be very careful

[sewid]

Yeah - spend money on making sure your car isnt a dud when it arrives instead of immediately increasing boost to 1bar.

If the turbos go bang you could be up for a full rebuild.

Hi Flipmo,

What did it feel like/sound like when the turbine died?

[Are_thirty_two]

It sounds like a howling scream and smells of something burning. It feels like the thing is winding down to a slow crawl.

[ferni]

Obviously do all the maintenece stuff first, timing belt (if you dont know the history of hte car), fluids etc...

And winding the turbos to 1bar is your choice, some turbos last some don't. I did over 40,000ks on my stock turbos on 1bar including half a dozen track days. and they were still fine.

[skyline_canada]

so what kind of maintenance is necessary right away if i dont kno anything that it previously had done to it etc? timing belt, fluids, anything else?

[ferni]

Timing belt is most important.

Change all the fluids for nice new fresh stuff.

Get a compression/leak down test to make sure the engine is healthy (should of had this done before buying anyway)

Get it tuned/put on a dyno to make sure its running ok before giving it stick.
