lookin for reliable reliable bhp

[GT4 20]

appologies for the txt write, bad habit!

Still can't break that habit eh?

slap on a big turbo see what blows first.

factory clutch is getting left in there till it shits its self,

just picking parts up off trade me as they pop up!

aint in too much of a rush, iv learned that thats how you $&#$% things!.

Judging by the above quotes, seems to me that you haven't actually learned anything

any advice would be appreciated!

How about doing it right in the first place

has anyone got more than 400hp?
what clutch are u using?
what turbo?
Pistons?
valves?
and what have you blown up?
which brands would you shy away from?

[Adamal]

AnthonyM had a 450hp dyno proven 3SGTE.

AnthonyM probably has a lot of money too

building a car from trade me is easier than it sounds!
make a list of what you want and jus be patient in waiting for the right part to pop up! dont settle for cheap shit!

[Adamal]

I'd be careful of buying things on Trade Me unless you know parts well.
There are people on there who will try and sell you a CT26 that has been flowed blah blah blah and will support up to 450+hp.

you right mate i wouldnt recommend taking anything for granted
thats written on trade me!

and aint affraid to tell someone to get $&#$% if he trying to sell

I'm aiming for around 400 @ flywheel.

Fidanza lightweight flywheel with Xtreme uprated clutch.

Currently using the OE turbo while the rebuilt engine is bing run in, but will eventualy be upgrading to a GT30 with custom built tubular exhaust manifold.

Wiesco +1mm

Lyn Rogers worked head with HKS 264 cams and uprated valve springs

Nothing yet. Not on my list of things to do.

Bottom end has been fully balanced, block ultrasonically tested and oil galleries deburred.

Next on the list is an Apexi Power FC, custom built larger WAI pre-rad and a decent water spray bar. That'll keep me going for another 4500kms to allow the motor to bed in fully before I start throwing higher boost at it.

And as has already been said, it is not cheap - especially if you do things properly. Day dreamers need not apply
