hey as a few people may no i turboed my na in january, its been in and out of the tunners just fiddling with it,

Anyways the car has been running really well but for a little while it was running really rich so today i though i would check and re-gap my plugs and do a compression test,

1= 140 2=130 3=140 4=140 5=150 6=160, i though that was pretty normal no probs there the second cylender the spark plug gay was a little out i dont know if that could have done anything to make the comp a little lower but ey its not to bad anyways

i think the 160 was rounded up a little my mate had the gauge, ok well stupid me i was reading around 2 things i may have done wrong, the car wasnt at operating tempreture so i dont know if that changed the restults but its ment to be at opperating tempreture, and when we were doing it we had one of the push in gauges insted of a turn on one and a little bit of air may have escaped we werent being very accurate just wanted to see if anything seemed way out

ok i take that back.. they arent all over the place..

they are decent... although i suspect that they've been rounded off to the nearest 10.

20-25 apart would make me personally unhappy. i'd be aiming for +/- 10.

here's an idea of other peoples:

Did you change injectors?,I have put a stock turbo on my na also & it runs pretty good as well.All I did was bolt on the standard turbo & intercooler & didn't change the computer or injectors & I think the injector might be to small so I would like to get some new ones before I spend money on a tune/remap etc

Does anyone know what size the stock na injectors are.

    • Yep, replacing all those hoses is kind of just bog standard if you're ever back there. Only hose on the back of the engine I have yet to replace is a vacuum hose for the wastegate. I'll probably do it eventually but it's in such an annoying spot.
    • I was actually just planning on replacing the fourth gear parts in the gear box that I broke … like the synchro hub or cone. And any other parts I need once I open up the transmission. That a bad idea? The rest of the gears feel tight. these parts shouldn’t be too much … just the labour here won’t be cheap. Just replacing these in HK would be around 2k aud including labour.    how much is a new r33 or r32 transmission?    thanks for the good info as usual       
    • I chose a bad time to buy, at the time there was no gtst's for sale in NSW and my options were qld, vic, or sa and not the greatest examples or too far out of my budget. Ended up picking this one from adelaide sight unseen and got a bit stitched up as you could expect but i dont fully regret it, its just a shame people cant be more transparent in this day and age.
    • IMO just buy a whole R33 transmission and swap the whole thing. Use a palm nailer/air hammer with a roll pin punch to drive the shifter rod end roll pins out. The rod end is discontinued so don't break it. Use gasket dressing on the OEM paper gasket instead of RTV. I personally would not pry on the shifter cover tabs, I broke one trying that instead of just smacking the side with a dead blow rubber mallet to shock it loose from the RTV the last mechanic applied. If you can't get the flanges totally clean and free of any residual RTV and/or you might have a gap that is bigger than it should due to flange damage use RTV on that surface instead of the OEM specced anaerobic sealer. Anaerobic sealer is most likely the right sealant for the job, it's just too easy to mess it up with too large a gap or bad surface prep/roughness seemingly. If you do rebuild what you have it's for a whole gearset that can take high torque. Don't bother with OEM at that point.
    • Little hose. Big hose. They're all waiting to kill the engine.
