Hey, my friend has an R33 GTS-t and is about to install the following mods. He wanted me to ask here roughly what sort of power figure he should expect. Now I know all dyno's read differently but all i need is an estimate as to how much power he will be making, as he is very sure his car will be quicker than my 220rwkw S13 Silvia and I really don't believe it will be.

This competition will be sorted out properly at the drag strip at Calder Park...

His mods are:

exhaust from front pipe back (stock dump still)

FMIC

Pod

HKS Step 1 Cams

Nismo fuel pump

Nismo fuel reg

Bleed valve at 12psi

he will make about 180rwkw no he wont beat you BUT if he installs an ecu and a proper dump pipe you will get beaten.

almost a Vs thread :P

Without an aftermarket ECU or air converter eg SAFC he might even be lucky to get that 180rwkw.

Weird order to do the mods IMO - i would have thought cams would be at the very bottom of the shopping list.

And yes, at Calder you will have his car for breakfast.

Check the dyno thread please. This thread really isnt required.

The results for stock turbos are in there, as are the 100's of other posts on this topic of stock turbo'd R33/dyno results.

And no, unless you cant drive, no way a sil will be slower than a R33 mainly due to the large weight difference

Yes, its a very weird order to do mods. He brought some Nismo 555cc injectors too, but you can't install these with the stock computer, right?

He doesn't want to upgrade the turbo yet, but if i were him I would of brought a Power FC and maybe exhaust manifold instead of the cams and injectors.

R31Nismoid: Sorry dude, I didn't realize the dyno thread was there, thanks for the info.

Coolio :P

Will give him some turbo upgrade ideas for later on down the track too :D

He will need an ECU for the 555's.

And yeah, i agree, PowerFC would have been a "better" first option instead of cams

    • My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future.
    • I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.
    • I know which one I'd prefer to have in my garage, and which one I'd actually drive as intended
    • Yeah mate, no probs. Just swap the email addresses?
    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
