Hey guys,

i have a few plans for my r33 and hope to get 300rwkw out of it by the time i have finished.

I'm doing the usual supporting mods, bosch 044, bigger injectors etc etc but i have a few questions.

i plan to replace the t25 with a gt35r so rather then doing a full turbo back exhaust now, im going to just buy a 3.5" front pipe and 3.5" cat back as i see no point in buying a dump pipe to suit the t25 then buying another pipe to suit the 35r.

so my question is, once i get the bosch 044, FMIC, bigger injectors, cams and everything is it ok to turn the boost up to 12psi until i can afford the gt35r and high mount manifold? will not having a bigger dump pipe cause excess pressure on the turbo or not?

i just cant see the sense in buying some items twice so im trying to do all the supporting mods and then save to buy the gt35r, dump pipe, high mount manifold, waste gate all in one go.

once i get the 35r fitted along with the dump etc i plan to run 18psi until i can afford a forged rebuild.

does this make sense or have i got everything backwards?

cheers

if you are refering to a rb25det, the turbo is a t3

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
