IMO realistically a street gtst doesn't need forgies, 300rwkw in a well setup road car is very quick, and if well set up/tuned should last. What power are you after? Just set yourself to a realistic number and buy the smallest turbo that will do it, average power(torque)is what wins on the street.

this is an nz car running 0.83 gt3540r

HERE I AMMMMMMMMMMMMM JJJJJJ

Mate if you use the RIGHT OIL, Correct Ignition System,VERY LARGE INTERCOOLER and a Great tune you`ll have it last a while

I had my STANDARD MOTOR make total 591 rwhp with nitrous and run a 10.8 on pump fuel with a manual.

Without nitrous it made 502 rwhp but on average 490

it lasted me almost 10 months OF KILLING IT

and if you can kill your r33 more then me good luck to you.

i mean 8000rpm rev limiter burnouts flat shifting trying to blow it up and it never happened till i used nitrous and 24 psi of boost.

Anyways its up to your mechanic what he trusts and not

but all i gotta say is dont under estimate the rb25

Look up

MAX HP OUT OF STANDARD RB25

10 months and what happened? pop went the weasel...

AND you had another FORGED motor being built on the side.

Full credit to your efforts, but not one other person has done it.

Everyone else has had problems here, problems there of varying degrees

GTNWET - Whats the use of the car/how much power do you want?

Thats really the questions to need to answer then you can go from there as to wether a stock internalled motor will last or not.

a couple things also

1)i had a Forged motor being built Yes but that motor in my car WAS STANDARD

2) maybe i am the only SKILLED RB25 owner to do it and run a 10 off a standard motor

3)everyone has problems due to the APEXI POWER Fc junk they use

4) use oil for AUSTRALIA MOTOR CONDITIONS

5) All the intercoolers people use are off ebay not custom thick ones eg 600x300x128

6)Not being cocky but i Tried new things in tuning on my car and it worked.Maybe if some tuners and mechanics spent time at Tuning skools they would make the same power instead of following what other people do

I have alot of r33s making big hp and never have a problem cause i have done the research on my own car and learnt what works and what doesnt. I havent followed what people say and do

My advice is to try new things

if you think it will work research it and trial it

Peoples motors have died because they used a PowerFC?

>_<

welllllll

they are RUBBISHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

for the bin

for the tip ECUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Any one thats tried what i have has failed due to that ECUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Try with a MAP sensor ECU such as Microtech,Hydra,Haltech,Motec ETCCCCCCCCCCC

Air Flow Meter is more Headache then what its worth

Toyota is smart on there Performance Sport cars they use map sensors

Nissan went backwards with AFMS on theres

lmao.

MR331307,

Sorry to burst your bubble but the highest power out of a std motor WITH STD INJECTORS hehe is 533rwhp on Pump fuel. :)

welllllll

they are RUBBISHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Thats funny, because you seem to be the only person on this forum who thinks this.

    • Can we see a scan of the original quote? The problem with engineers (and by this, I mean, all engineers across all engineering industries) is that there are "engineers" and there are "engineers" (you'll have to imagine the two different vocal emphases on those two versions of the same word. Engineering is a mindset - your farm kid who spent his life rebuilding the tractor will likely make a good engineer. The farm kid who spent his life taking photos of butterflies.. perhaps not. But on top of that mindset, the modern engineer has to learn how to write so that there is absolutely no way of being misunderstood. Proposals/budget estimates/quotations are one place where this is absolutely vital. You have to delineate your scope of supply with extremely hard boundaries, and anywhere where there is any possibility of not being able to have such a hard boundary, you need to write language that will cover you from scope creep, cost overruns, the inevitable interference of the client or their "engineer", etc etc. Now, if your clients are the BHPs and the Rio Tintos of the world, and similar, then you get good at this. If you are an automotive engineer, pitching work to the great unwashed masses, your skills in this area might not be well developed, because you're only dealing with knuckle draggers trying to get a big block legal in a Torana. And when I say "might not"....I'd suggest there's a better than even chance that any such skills might be completely absent. So, we might be able to look at your quote and see what the opportunities are for rebuttal.
    • It’s an rb25 so a gtst and I’ll get that valve
    • Thank you for this my turbo doesn’t have the nipple so I’ll get one installed in the turbo to Intercooler piping. I’ll get everything I need and locate it all using the information you both gave and get back with an update. 
    • Please do not connect it to your manifold. If you do, as GTS suggested please record the lot in 4K with good mics attached.   On the factory Skyline, there's a upside down pipe that allows it to breathe, looks like this   
    • For me I'd need some serious justification for why it has blown out.  Have you questioned him on it?  To be honest if you didn't question him right from the get-go on the first invoice that was already way over the initial quote and then you've (presumably) then paid another $1375 on top of the first invoice, then you're pushing shit uphill to get a favourable result now... It was years ago I last got an engineer out but it was around $450-$550 per visit.  That was just to inspect each progress point he gave me for the project.  Is he just doing progress inspections or is he providing engineering diagrams, technical assistance, etc??  If he's not, he's a filthy rip off merchant.  If the $3100 is the final sign off then you need to cop it on the chin, pay it and move on.  If it's not, piss him off and get a new one.  Not many Jeeps I'd value at $10K full stop let alone just engineering fees on a written off, half actual value WOVR Jeep....
