My r32 doesnt go to bad, its not level but the turbo doesnt get a full length on me, but the turbo i raced has a few probs to iron out, my cars got a 2.5ltr so yeah its a evenish comparision for the r33, mine a bit lighter though, got nfi what the power is though.

AFAIK, when Nissan released the R34 range they decided it was time to give the old RB series a bit of revamp - hence the introduction of the Neo Strait 6 engine. In addition to various other improvements the Neo engines got VVT, however the GTR's RB26DETT did not. (this may be the reason that Nissan can get away with quoting the official power output of the R34's RB25DET as 280PS & the the R34 GTR's RB26DETT at 280PS also!:mad:

I have seen 1, R33 series Skyline (late model) that had a Neo strait 6 engine in it - whether Nissan officially produced the R33 with the newer Neo's in it I can say - it could have been a conversion or something as simple as bolting on the "Neo" plastic engine cover...

HPI has road tested an NA GTS25 against an NA Supra, their figures show 0-100 in 7.3 and 1/4 mile in 15.5 which is accurate in my case cos ive done my 0-100 in just under that time and the quarter sounds right. the car made 105 kw at the wheels, this is stocko with a muffler i think, pretty good i guess, id like 150 at the wheels on mine

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
