3" mandrel custom zuste
Cross and slotted brakes
new Diff
R33 skyline 6 speed
turbo timer
boost guage 8psi - 20psi
nice big injectors
NOS setup minus Tank (yea sure)
looking at getting around 300rwkw
my mates a performance engine specilist and all this for $9000 aint bad hey including labour and parts
Maybe he is talking Supra.
Also to make 300rwkw, which is around 400kw at the flywheel, i think your going to need more than 20psi on the boost gauge.
Sounds albit too cheap to get that much power and well. Could be done, but you would have to cut corners or buy 2nd hand.
Pistons and Rings, 2000
Rb26 head lets say 2000 if you find one
engine machining costs and sundries(Gaskets pumps belts etc): 1500
Cooler and pipes, 1500
Gearbox (skyline one? 1500 lets say, supra - 3000)
Diff, 1000
Exhaust, 800
Computer, autronic with sensors, ~2500
Turbos x2 new , 3000 for **** ones, 4000 for good
Looking at 15k just for the above,and your not done yet.
Just talking estimates, but that doesnt include custom manifolds, clutch, labor costs etc.
Unless your reco-ing a new motor, or its stolen stuff, i cant see you getting 300kw at the wheels properly or reliabily.
Check out 700HP's website for info... that combo has costed him BIG BUCKS but its done right, looking at over 30k there, for around 650hp at the engine, or around 320-350 at the wheels.
thx
darkstar, my mate gets everything i need at cost price as he is a performnce engine builder, his company get all the parts really cheap. so its ending up cheaper than expected, i would not do it if it was going to be arougn th 15K mark.....
find out what gearbox it is, it will be interesting to see hat they reckon it is cause the only 6 speed skyline box around is the one from an R34 gtr, it will be worth as much as your engine finished!! S15 have six speeds but there not going to be much chop for a torque monster like your planing to build.
Also to make 300rwkw, which is around 400kw at the flywheel, i think your going to need more than 20psi on the boost gauge
well i made 353kw @ the wheels on 19 psi.... :roll:
evan,trust me when i say this,your costs are gonna rocket start saving,as for the turbos the factory gtr t28s high flowed will get you in the 10s..mine did.

I hope he could build engines better then u could spell specialist
r34 gtr boxes ain't cheap, probably looking at Ummm ahh around the 3K+ region for the box.
Pics when finished ey. hehehe i think ur a dreamer.
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
That's if you can actually find one of those boxes. Even with his free labour you'll struggle to come under budget just in part's alone champ.
Not trying to put you down, but that's just the way it read's.
everything ends up costing more, the part that sucks is that what can go wrong - will go wrong - at least your mate is the one doing your car and you trust him with it -
all the best champ
