What engine parts do i need?? - GT-R Register - Official Nissan Skyline and GTR Owners Club forum

TidyTobes · 23rd August 2008, 01:05 PM

I took my R33 GTR off the road a year ago after turbo failure with the intention of gathering parts for a rebuild, my question is what parts do i need on top of what i list below to build a safe strong engine, not looking for mega power but 550-600bhp would be ideal... SO far I have;

HKS GTR Special Turbo Full Kit
Greddy Intercooler
Greddy Radiator
Trust Exhaust System
Tomei Poncams (Type B)
Tomei Cam Pulleys
HKS Cambelt
Greddy Rad Cap
Nismo AFMs
Nismo Fuel Pressure Regulator
Power FC and Commander
HKS Triple Plate Clutch
Sard 700cc Injectors
Tomei Fuel Pump
Tomei 1.2mm Gasket Set
Greddy Profec Boost Controller
and although they arent engine based I have new DBA discs all round and new Pads..

Any advice as to what other parts are recommended would be appreciated, for instance as you can see I have no bottom end parts and wouldnt know where to start, hopefully someone with more experience can help me out..

Thanks,

Tobi

Depends on your budget...especially for the bottom end as you could consider a stroker kit...e.g 2.8L. With a complete kit, you would also be getting forged pistons and rods.
Uprated bottom end bearings are worthwhile too like ACL race bearings.

I'm no expert on this. I'm just going by the work that has been done on my rebuild recently.

Go for a set of forged pistons !!!! Standard rods and crank are more than capable !!!!!!
Get the crank balanced , as for bearings go for acls !!!!
A good higher flowing oil pump wouldnt go a miss ,tomie or a trust pump.
Im only after giving my Rb a full rebuild , ill be runnig round 600+

Uprated fuel pump
Twin plate clutch
Sump extension.(to stop oil surge)

Iam going to same power at many same parts.. only including cp forged pistons, n1 oil pump and n1 water pump. I dont know really what fuel pressure regulator i need. There is few different nismo regulators...

Sorry, meant the op. "HKS GTR Special Turbo Full Kit" doesn't mean anything to me.
