Gt30 rb20 build - 1 Year Project + Paint Job Pictures

[PL_GTR]

The synapse is a long story, i don't know if i got unlucky or whatever, but this is the 3rd one for me, I am lucky i bought it at ztune and it was covered under warranty, but for future buying of bovs, i am going to stick with hks, greddy, or blitz.

The diaphragm on the bov broke on me twice at 14 pounds of boost.
The recirc one that i have now is fine, working for now. Mike on here helped me fabricate a silicone heater hose that went from bov to recirc pipe.

thanks rabbit, i forgot to do the cooling stuff, but i will probably get electric fans and an aftermarket rad. oil cooler maybe, but its going to be mostly for street.

OMG I agree with Rabbit for once.

Kodak moment *smiles* *Click*

But seriously, I think you may want to consider a new rad and oil cooler/filter relocation. Why not when you're in there?

I would also suggest a stronger clutch. I can't remember if you're running your stock one (from above notes I would assume yes) and that'll be smoked pretty quick with 400 at the crank (or so I would assume).

I would keep an "oh **** I broke it" fund for your rear end and tranny too.

And I would suggest before getting knee deep in this **** you fully anticipate doubling your budget. Just look at Mikes car. F-cking SICK. But f-cking expensive too.

I'm excited for you. I'd love similar power at lower spool. I have alternative ideas tho...

EDIT: I thought it said RB30 build, not GT30, and I was going to walk up and smack you at the next meet since I know it would never happen

I like.

A few questions about Synapse BOV, if you don't mind.

Did the stock rubber recirc intake hose joiner fit over 1.25 inch BOV recirc fitting that was shipped with BOV????

How do you like the Synapse BOV????

The reason I ask as I need to replace the stock BOV that's causing flutterdump / compressor surge problems.

Also fit Nistune. Nistune can run the same maps your car is running now and be reprogramed for future mods. Mines ECU can't, as Mines put glue over EPROM chip.

literally one of the purrdest H chassis on here . im so happy ur builing up the 20 .
such a great motor im aiming for 550 to the crank my self .
i dont see any plans for your cooling or oil system should be upgraded for sure.
