loving the manifold... and nice widetrack wheels, Axis right?
What offsets and widths are you using?
Are the injectors stock ? wiring and rail are deceiving.

Hey man What's up? An old friend of mine has one with an rb20det automatic tranny which is in good condition, and his wife read the riot act to him and told him he needs to get rid of one of his cars as he is coming down in age so he chose to part with the 280 and keep his cifiero with the same engine in it. Now I want to know what is a good price for it and is it a wise buy? Holla at me.

HEY MAN... NICE RIDE,,,, I THINK YOU ARE DEFINITELY HEADING THE RIGHT DIRECTION WITH THE MODS.
BUT TELL ME HOW MUCH BOOST YOU INTEND TO HIT THERE.... DID YOU GO WITH METAL HEAD GASKET? WHAT ABOUT CON ROD BOLTS?
WITH GREATER BOOST PLUS IF U GOING WITH NOS I THINK YOU SHOULD CONSIDER THESE.
I TOO AM BUILDING A RB20. IS THAT A LOCALLY MADE PLENUM OR IS IT A R.I.P.S. ?
I MADE MINES OUTA A RB25 GREDDY.... ALOT OF WELDING BUT IT LOOKS GREAT SO FAR. GOIN WITH 26 INJECTORS AND TUNED BRAIN,,,, CANT AFFORD MANAGEMENT RIGHT NOW
BUT I HAVE A AFC NEO AT LEAST

ninja,
Looking for some ideas
- rb20det - so far added Haltech - injectors - extractor - turbo - clutch - intercooler - sweet 18 staggered
What is a good diff to use?
hey my suggestion would be to use a skyline diff R32-R34 complete rear sub-frame with diff and suspension works, or the S13-S15 rear sub- frame u may need to change the diff only depending on your power output.

Wow...this looks amazing so far..
What about have a decent catback..like a full catback (non canon style)
I know you want to go faster but do you plan on modifying your brake system?
Otherwise...Im jealous

I don't think a Catback and muffler style is going to have much bearing on his numbers.
From the pic you can see what looks like a 3" downpipe which is already good flow for his turbine outlet.
Is is stepped up/down at all? what is the AR / trim on the turbo?
A decent addition is getting some nice coilpacks but check and see integration with your Haltech.
Are you using any type of oil cooler?
