Looking for 400-500whp.

[Kouki_206]

1) Greetings from Seattle! I'm new to the forum, sup guise?
2) Owned a zxtt a little bit ago.
3) Looking to build an SR or 1J soon.

I don't have a shell or motor or anything yet, but I thought I could join the forum and gain a little more knowledge prior to purchasing anything yet.
I'm new to the 240, first and foremost.
I'll be looking for an s14 Kouki.
I might settle for an s13 if I can't find an s14, and convert to a Kouki front end. But I'd love to find an s14.
I'll be doing the works.. paint, suspension, wheels, motor, etc.

I did some quick research and so far this is what I thought what be good options for a future SR build.

300zx MAF
Tomei 740cc injectors
GT2871r turbo .64 56 trim
Greddy intake manifold
Stock tranny? (Not sure)

I just started looking into an SR build recently so I'm not too knowledgable about what has to be done and how.. all I know is that I have the guys at PSI down in Oregon ready to build anything I send their way.

I'd love some info and a parts list for the 1J swap as well. I'll look into that too.

I'll be doing my research but I'd also appreciate any comments and/or suggestions anyone wants to leave. Like what other parts I should be looking into, etc.
I'll be happy with a reliable 400.

Thanks!

[sydwyz95]

If PSI is building your car just ask them what they recommend, they are a great shop

[jamg]

if you're looking for a kouki, you'll be shelling out a lot of money. i'd rather use a different platform for big power instead.

at that level of power, you should fully build your engine internals.

[landins13]

or just run a JZ with bolt ons and a tune.

[Kouki_206]

1J might be a potential option if I find an s13 shell.
What would be the main differences, equivalencies, etc. with those motors? And wouldn't it be better in the long run to mod the 1J since they can handle more on stock internals? Are the costs of modding between them pretty close?

I could do an s13 with a Kouki front end.

[Chuki_KA24e]

1J might be a potential option if I find a shell, but I wanna go with the SR for now.

I could do an s13 with a Kouki conversion?

I don't know what's it like down there in Seattle but where I am, 1j's can be had cheaper than Sr's. With the power your looking at making you are going to be rebuilding either of them to atleast a basic extent and replacing things. Lots of things. If you are not doing it half assed that is.

As far as kouki conversion, your pockets the limit. People put s14 kouki fronts on s13's. There are also s13 koukis, they are the "type X" that never came to North American markets. Not sure if you knew that by the sound of your previous posts...

You gots lots of research to do mang.

[jamg]

drop in an LS3. stage 3 cams, built head, headers, x pipe, and a tune= 483whp

my friends C6 made that with those mods.

[Ryanswartout]

if your looking at the 400 to 500 reliable range out of an sr just know its a lot of money, im almost finished with the same hp goals on my sr build some things to think about is your stock ecu only can only manage 15ish psi (i think) so definatly look into ECU stuff i opted for AEM V2 but there are a lot of options. the SR head is kinda the weakest link that and head bolts and gasket. another thing to think about is the turbo, i have head the t28 isnt to efficent over 350 hp.... if you wana stick with garret the gt30 or gt35 are good options with a lot of support (im going holset hx35 7blade) but definatly good luck with reaserch on your build! one thing to think about is to buy a fully built internals motor from someone off here, i know its not as cool but honestly you will save like 2-4k dollars

[silviaks2nr]

2jz. no shit.

[codyace]

Read the GT2871r owners thread. 400whp, streetable fun machines.

[Kouki_206]

Thanks for the responses guys. Just an FYI I'll have 10-15k to work with, and obviously I'm not in a rush, so I'll still be saving up my paychecks for some extra cash. My buddy just put a fully built 2j from PSi into his s13.5 for 14k and he's gonna be between 500-700.
So I'm thinking my build will be way cheaper than that.
My other friend has a 2j in his e36 BMW. I don't wanna get a 2j as well haha.
I would do an RB but two other friends are running those too
Which is why I'd rather still to SR or possibly a 1J.

One of my friends has a brand spankin' new GT2871r turbo and Greddy intake manifold, he's letting me pick both of them up for 1600 if I decide to stick with the SR. All of the other stuff I'll need, I'll be purchasing online.

Would it be cheaper to just find an s13 shell and buy/build a 1j for it? As opposed to finding an s13 with a stock SR and then building that?
I just wanna hit 400 and I know I'll have the money to make it happen. Would it be easier with a 1J?
Say my budget was 10k. Would I be able to get more power for cheaper on the 1j? I could pick up the motor from Foreign Engines by my house, they're a nice place.

[codyace]

A GT28 will not get you to 400hp A GT2871r .64 will.

[Geno750]

A GT28 will not get you to 400hp A GT2871r .64 will.

Shouldn't the GTX2867R do this as well, and better?

[Kouki_206]

The reason why I'd rather stick with the gt2871r is because my friend's throwing me a good deal on it + the intake mani.

[Asuka]

Tomei M7960 is good for more than 500.

[Chuki_KA24e]

400hp will be easier with a 1j than a Sr yes.

[unijabnx2000]

Nismotronic

[Kouki_206]

If I were to go with a 1J, I'd be looking at like a 6262 Precision turbo correct? W/ 540cc injectors?
How would the tranny hold?

[EvoVIII808]

I will be pushing 400 here shortly after i beef up the bottom end. sitting alittle under 345 15psi on a 18G turbo.
Mods:
Apexi PFC D-Jet
SR S13 Black Top
740cc inj
Greddy FMIC
18G Turbo
Tomei 256 Pon Cams
Spec 2 Stage 2 clutch

If you have deep pockets and can source part very well, pick up the JZ. if not, go with a built SR that will put you easily in the mid 400, and save you a ton of money.

Could I go with a gt2871r + intake mani with those 740cc injectors? & would the stock tranny work?
How much would that setup run me?

[codyace]

Shouldn't the GTX2867R do this as well, and better?

Without a doubt, but if he's got a used 2871r, it will get the job done. I personally have a GTX2867 :D

The reason why I'd rather stick with the gt2871r is because my friend's throwing me a good deal on it + the intake mani.

So it is a 2871r...cool. You keep saying GT28, and that can cover quite a few turbos.

My old setup made 410/330 trq at 20 psi, GT2871r .64/JWT ECU/JWT S3 Cams, Greddy Intake manifold. Car was a blast to drive and scary fast (full weight s14 trapped 120mph). I've since moved to a GTX2867 for the better spool/response.


400hp will be easier with a 1j than a Sr yes.

Easier how? SR+Cams+Intake Manifold+2871r setup = 400whp, and no custom mounts or transmission or driveshafts or anything.

Could I go with a gt2871r + intake mani with those 740cc injectors? & would the stock tranny work?
How much would that setup run me?

Again, please read over and search the gt2871r owners thread, your question has been answered countless times through countless setups. Yes you can run your setup and injectors, yes you can keep stock transmission.

Thanks!
I just found the thread. Couldn't find it before for some reason, I'll read through it now!
How long would the stock tranny last me at that amount of power?

So far on the SR list I have:
GT2871r + Greddy intake manifold - 1600
Spec Stage 2 clutch - 350?
PFC - 1400?
Nismo 740cc injectors - 800?
Greddy FMIC - ?
Tomei 256 PonCams - 350?

[DoobieS13]

2jz NA-t....cheap, very reliable for the hp you will be throwing at it, and sounds great...do it.

[s-cargo]

Also ask yourself what do you plan on doing with the car.. Drifting/autoX/drag racing/highway runs/just dding it etc
Sr will take weight off the nose of the car.. Jz will add weight..

If you want to drift.. I've seen people and have Been in cars with any motor do well in this.. Kindof up to the driver and other suspension mods

AutoX the sr with 2871 will be funner/faster than a 1j car because of the weight distribution.

Drag racing.. 1jz all day.. Depending on the transmission r154 are better than w58.. But they tend to explode around your power goals.. V160 is the big boy trans.. 8 second cars on that oem transmission..
The sr is lighter, so a little less hp needed for similar times..but rocker arms like to explode when your banging rev limiter..

If your gonna dd it, If i had the money id go 1jz all day... Toyota reliability, parts can be bought at the dealership.. I know someone with a 1j mk3 supra top mount turbo/supporting mods, around 15psi making 360hp.. Thing is dead nuts reliable for him..

Either motor can hit the goals, but long term the sr will probably cost more to keep 4-500whp and at those power levels it might be like a ticking time bomb..
Where as 1jz or better yet 2jz(for not much more$) can make 400 with head studs/ regasket the motor and maybe a timing belt/water pump.. All basic maintinence anyway that either motor would get if your gonna shoot for 400+

plus the jz Just straight up sounds alot better.. Noone with working ears and health brain functions would disagree lol

[Kouki_206]

It'll be my daily driver for a bit 'till I can afford another car to replace it.

I'm unsure as to what I would run with a 1J though.. (turbo, injectors, manifolds, intercooler, transmission etc.)
If someone could provide me with a parts list for a 1J, I'd appreciate that. I know the motor would be able to handle 400 on stock internals (right?).
Also, which one would be more reliable? Long term? Short term? Maintenance?

And yes, I love the JZ tone.. it's orgasmic as f*** <3

[Huntsman2007]

my friends C6 made that with those mods.

I never understand people like this. Stage 3 cams? Super specific. Cams isn't plural in a lsx series. Just one. Built head? That's gonna have to be made into a pair. I mean come onnnn

Easier how? SR+Cams+Intake Manifold+2871r setup = 400whp, and no custom mounts or transmission or driveshafts or anything.



1j+ 750cc injectors+bigger fuel pump+single turbo+tune=well over 400hp...

[Kouki_206]

What transmission?

The title of your thread is "Looking for 400-500whp" and you don't even have a chassis yet. WTF do you expect?

[Kouki_206]

The title of your thread is "Looking for 400-500whp" and you don't even have a chassis yet. WTF do you expect?

I expect nobody to give me dumbass options when clearly I'm either going SR or 1J, as stated all over in the body of this thread.

[The Dude]

Yeah, and you also said you would welcome any comments or suggestions anyone had.

[Kouki_206]

Yeah but I assumed everyone would have the common sense to acknowledge the fact that I'd like comments/suggestions relevant to the two engine options given.
Anyway, which tranny should I run with 400-500hp w/ a 1J?

[EvoVIII808]

Could I go with a gt2871r + intake mani with those 740cc injectors? & would the stock tranny work?
How much would that setup run me?

yup, dont forget to add a fuel pump. i would get a new clutch because the stock wont hold for long at that power.

And you dont have to buy everything brand new. there are many people selling Mani, turbos, and ECU. take your time, and wait things out. Thats what i have done and saved a bunch. The 18G alone with minor supporting mods will get you up to 350-380 @20psi on stock block so the 2876 will have no problem.

[unijabnx2000]

just stick with a KA-T

[nenji01]

cheapest way to get to that hp

ka24det(bottom built) or sr20det

fuel (e-85) or c16 would be the best i live in miami and theres e85 stations everywhere dunno about u
1k injectors
1 walbro in tank to a surge tank with a bosch inline
-8an fuel lines

tune
ems(power fc)(aem)(haltech) w/e but has to be ems... nothing else or u will blow it. idc about wut u guys say ems is the way to go for reliable power and ofc a kick ass tuner that knows his shit

now turbo side is simple
get a holset hx40-50 or borgwarner s256-300 best turbo for the $
t3 top mount
buy a couple of V-bands off of ebay
go to a muffler shop that does mandrel bends and make urself a nice downpipe

a spec/act/clutchmaster to hold 500-+++ tq

4 inch ebay intercooler
aem wideband
boost gauge


and u have there 500hp all day with room to grow to w/e the motor can hold.

and all of this can be done with around 4k$ if u do ur own labor and find decent prices on stuff or even less


now if u are planning to spend more than 8k or have this car forever and just build it to be a beast.... jz all day since its the best engine hands down.... stock or built doesnt matter

[The Dude]

Yeah but I assumed everyone would have the common sense to acknowledge the fact that I'd like comments/suggestions relevant to the two engine options given.
Anyway, which tranny should I run with 400-500hp w/ a 1J?

Just buy a car that already has whatever engine you want in it. It's going to cost you much more to buy a shell and motor and tow/ship them down to Oregon to be installed. I don't see why you would do all that if you arent doing the work yourself.

[Chuki_KA24e]

Hx40+ on a kadet is going to be so overkill you will be standing on the go pedal trying to spool that bitch for 10 seconds plus at like 5000rpm...

[LOVERboy]

Hx40 with BEP housing with a decent set of cams, you can probably get full spool at like 3800-4000. The turbo manifold and the intercooler setup will also make a different.

[cbcm2435]

Tomei M7960 is good for more than 500.

no its not, its good up to 400, the m8270 is good up to 450, do research before you spread false information

[cbcm2435]

you can make great power on a 1j with the tomei turbo, cams, injectors, and a standalone

the r154 will work just fine, a friend of mine has a 800hp 2jz sc300 and that is what he uses, plus you can get a strengthened output shaft and rebuild kits and stuff from marlin crawler

[fliprayzin240sx]

So the OP doesnt even have a car yet. No clue on the difference between chassis other than looks. Not even sure which engine to run. Should change the title of this thread to "Hopes and Dreams"

[Y0SH]

If you're trying to be different from your friends do a 1.5jz.

[nenji01]

if u are trying to be different from ur friends buy a prius and dont get into the car scene.

And I'll have PSI modify the BOV flange on the FM for the HKS.

Should be an easy 400 with a tune, right?

400-500 is a large gap. A 2871 .64 will not get you past 420 unless you shove a unicorn horn into your gas tank.

Not to mention the stock tranny tends to give out around 400wtq. When abused. Keyword there. Abused.

Yeah. I'm not one to abuse a tranny, but what would one step up from the stock tranny be?

And stop looking at over priced over rated turbos for these power goals.

Don't forget about precision and comp. two VERY amazing turbo companies that make incredibly reliable and powerful turbos for much less than Garrett, Tomei, HKS etc.

Z33 or Z32 tranny for sure!!

Well I'm just going with my friends brand new 2871r .68 because he's letting me have it for 1,000.

Is there a BB turbo between 1000-1500 that I could replace the 2871 with and make a more power with the same parts I listed above?

GT2867r, run some big boy boost and make 425-450

You should run a GT4088R, will be perfect with that DOC topmount manifold.

GTX2867R
"The external dimensions of this turbo is the same as a base GT2871R so no changes in the engine bay is required in order to fit this turbo in its place. This GTX model as uses all the same oil and coolant fittings at the standard GT28/GT30R/GT35R turbo."

Yeah I forgot to take that off of the list after I added a couple more things haha.

And the filter relocation....yea pointless with the GReddy intake mani. It's easily accessible.

[Kouki_206]

Sounds good.

Fairly sure the OP is serious yes. Not too sure about some others replying lol.

Kouki, if you are going to go with the SR20 option you may want to reconsider your clutch choice. The Spec Stage 2 is only rated for 415lbs of torque but its a cheap clutch and will likely melt long before that torque level. The Spec Stage 2+ or even stage 3 might be a better option with 400-500 hp if you want it to last.
