Thanks mate. Your responses are as fast as your car.

you can just see pauls head gettin bigger :D

what steve said is right, put the exhaust on and have a quick dyno run to check the AFR's. if theyre rediculously rich then maybe consider an AFC. you can get one of the older series ones for around the $150 mark

I can't say that the map I used when going to the dyno was any evidence of a good tune. My afr's above 120kmh in 4th were super rich. I did mean to make them that way to minimise the ping issue. Otherwise the afr was around 12 which aint bad for a road tune.

The dyno resulted in 230 something HP at 130kmh, whatever that is in rpm (I am guessing 4700rpm) before the ping comes in.

I've got a 600HP fuel pump in now and things seem a little better coming onto the throttle than before too.

aftermarket management would be the way to go and possibly a boost controller, then before u start playing with bigger turbos, have to consider, upgrading fuel system, and rebuild engine with stronger internals so it can cope with the power level and higher boost levels that bigger turbos produce :)

if you don't want a full on ecu, get an apexi safc or safc II which is a piggy back air fuel controller, i just got mine unitl i can afford a full on ecu :)

adrian, how much did the apexi safc2 cost you and what better performance are you getin out of it?? Wheres the best place to buy one from and who do you reckemond to work on cars, i took mine to Tim Sleko to get a GFB boost controller put on (now at 10 psi), and take off the fuel regulator cause it was running too rich.

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
