Hey guys,

I really need some good advice I just got a JDM s15 specR silvia done 110kz, all its got is:

Greddy Front mounted Intercooler
Greddy Electronic boost controller
Turbo Timer
Full 2.5 Inch exhaust (some bodgy exhaust setup)
EVERYTHING ELSE IS STOCK AS A BLOCK

OK, so i want to do some mods asap, turbo is playing up and i dont like the lag ( it starts to die up top) should i throw away these mods and start fresh?
I dont know much about these cars so what do you guys recommend i do first (in order)?

This is just some upgrades off my head

Injectors, turbo, manifold,down pipe, hot pipe, cams, intercooler, oil cooler, suction intake, induction kit, larger afm,turbo outlet, racing fan pulleys


1.?????????????
2.?????????????
3.?????????????




And which turbo set up should i get ?
1) Little lag (anything BELOW 3000rpm of boost coming on is fine)
2) Won't die up top (Going strong till redline)
3) Not Snappy (vertical power on graph)
4) Will fit the stock position on an S15 (manifold, water/oil lines, dump pipe)
5) turbo set up under $4000 AND IF THATS TOO CHEAP FOR WHAT IM LOOKING FOR THEN HOW MUCH WOULD I NEED
6) AFTER IM DONE IM LOOKING FOR OVER 380hp (round 11-12sec 1/4 mile)

Thanks guys.........

trust t518z will see you to 230rwkw at 15psi(apparently upto 250 on 20) and should be full boost around what you want, with supporting mods. Has a very torquey curve if you do some research.

I agree with magnet.

A street car with 10k to spend

T518z
nismo 740cc injectors
z32 afm
clutch (something like a cushioned button to try and preserve the gearbox)
cams and springs
Better exhaust
custom intake pipe
ecu and a tune

i'd probably leave the manifold stock and as much engine bay piping as possible and keep the stock air box to keep it all low key if you do get inspected by the police.

Or buying an RB26 straight out and dropping that in.

Unless he wants to keep the SR.

For 10 grand you could do a lot to a car.
Depends on what you want to do and if you are going to do the work.

Is it just me, or with all this power he wants and all the reccomendations going round, i would not be forgetting brakes and especially some good suspension upgrades. $10k is alot if all you want is power and a nice dyno read out but middle ground if you want a good all rounder.

what do you want the car for too? Street, track, drift, or just a sweet quarter mile?

And lets not forget about tyres. He needs something better than stockies to be putting down that sort of power...
