*******NEW QUESTION, SEE POST 8**********

THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP/ADVICE, I ONLY WANNA SPEND THE MONEY ONCE.

ok ive just ordered a r33 series 2 half cut, motor box computer etc all there.

Its going into my vl, what is the easiest and cheapest way to get to 250rwkw safely and able to run it all day??? car already has fmic 600x300x76 and will have full 3 inch turbo back exhaust. i guess what i want to know is just with these mods and an upgraded turbo could i retune the stock ecu to achieve the 250rwkw. staying with standard injectors? the vl already has big fuel pumps.

thanks in advance

Edited by scott_to4

ok so ell me then would this be achievable? or would i need bigger AFM or would aftermarket ecu negate this?

100% stock internal rb25det.

600x300x76 FMIC

3 inch mandrel bent turbo back exhaust

bigger injectors and pumps (budget $500 as i alreadhy have pumps)

aftermarket ecu (budget $2000)

appropriate BB turbo (budget $2000-$2500)

high mount exh manifold and possible external gate (budget $1000-$1500)

Ok so with the above setup could i reach 275rwkw through a standard gts-t r33 manual box? prob need new clutch.

so with around a budget of say $6000 is that possible?

thanks in advance

So now your not doing it on the cheap?

I suggest you should search around as this thread is heading down the path of all the others (being locked, because its been answered sooo many times)

In particular read this thread:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/t55845.html

Is has all the results, parts used and so on. So basically you'll find out what fits your requirements quite easily.

turbo - 30/40 .82 or 3540 .82

china exhaust manifold - 300 or - extreme turbo manifolds - 1grand

ecu microtec

injectors - nismos or sards

wastegate 5 - 700

theres ur 350 kw

10psi :thumbsup: Ive found cars "feel" better when running a lot of boost.

Not sure if its actually faster which is probably anorther thread all together.

Running 1bar now, my car feels good/progressive @ 250rwkw, but getting in a mates EVO with 250rwkw 20+psi... its just savage like my car was with 350rwkw/24psi etc.

Would be interesting as you could go a smaller 450hp turbo and screw tins of boost into it to get the power, just depends if it will nose over in the top end though which is possible.

The 500hp GT30 will crank 275rwkw easily (around 17psi is what i did it on), but the difference from 17psi to 24psi was really interesting

the words 'cheap' ,'reliable' & 'fast'. You can only choose 2 of the 3.

Alot of truth right here. please take note.

ps. You dont need a highmount to get to that power goal, so save yourself the $$ on the highmount with external gate, because you can easily acheive your goal with a lowmount retaining the stock manifold, and spend the money elsewhere. ie. fueling.

600x300x76 FMIC = $365 justjap

3 inch mandrel bent turbo back exhaust $1k

bigger injectors and pumps = dont bother, ive seen stock injectors run this power

aftermarket ecu (budget $2000)

high flow R34 turbo, or a VG30 rear housing on your existing turbo 1.5k ~ or spend a tad more and get a HKS GT-RS bolt on nengun 2.2k

forget the highmount, save $$ on water/oil lines and changing dumps

then you have to add labour....

    • FWIW, as well as a basic immobiliser/remote unlock (all basic units give you those 2 things), I would also install a 4g tracker in any car I cared about. Just hide it anywhere that won't be found in a rushed look and preferably get something with a built in battery backup so it stays online for a while when the battery is removed or flat While its not a car, when our car trailer was stolen in that den of crime Sydney about a decade ago, the cops were watching from the bloke's neighbour's lawn within about 2 hours until he started swapping the plates and putting up the gumtree ad.   Obviously it is still not undefeatable (eg parking it up for a few days somewhere without sky sight) but it greatly improves your chances of getting it back quickly and with less damage
    • Instead of magic keyphrases I wonder if something can be done with auto complete. Similar to how user names are handled already. When you type '@' and follow with letters, it'll search across all usernames. It might work to have the same for forum topics. Some key to trigger it and then text search across all thread names and it'll insert the name and URL when pressing enter.
    • Hmmm.... It's actually a bit weird. Here's the key bit of the diagram. I've circled what I'm pretty sure is the high beam indicator on the cluster. It appears to be just in parallel with one of the high beam lamp globes. Meaning, that however the high beams get lit, the indicator should also be lit. So there shouldn't be any difference between being on normal headlight main beam, or just flashing. I've followed the physical diagram (which is not so easily summarised in a single snip, so I didn't put it up here) and it agrees with what you can see here. If you struggle to follow this crap....let me explain some of it. I always struggle when I first look at this - even though I have looked specifically at this more than once in the past. We'll start with the flash. The flash is triggered by pulling the dip switch back, right? That is indicated on the diagram by the P position on the switch block labelled "Light SW", on the RHS of the snip. The bottom-right most terminal is connected to ground. That's that wire line going down to the bottom. The next terminal up is connected to the bottom terminal when the switch is pulled back. That provides ground to wire LA33, which is connected to the coil of the relay in the middle of the snip, "Headlamp relay (2M)". That relay always has power on the other side of the coil, from fuse #19 above it. When that relay is triggered, the two main headlamp fuses #32 & #33 above feed through the relay down onto wires LA31 and LA32, which are connected into the wires that go to the main beams, LA04 and LA06. The cluster indicator is connected to LA32 also. When the main beams are on normally, the light switch ("Light SW" again) is in the M position. Power comes in for the left and right sides on LA34 and LA36, via the other light switch (the one on the binnacle, called "Light SW (Instrument)" on the diagram). Obviously that switch needs to be in the 2nd position, because that's headlights. 1st position is parkers. The same main headlamp fuses #32 & #33 feed through that switch, out via LA34&36 to the stalk switch, and of out of the stalk switch via LA04 and LA06 to the headlamps. From there, it is no different to the flasher version. I really don't know why they bothered with the flash relay. They probably didn't want to add another contact in the stalk switch - but I'm damn sure that's what I would have done. Just reverse the order of power feed, so that it goes from the fuses to the stalk switch first, and add another contact for flashing. Everything would have worked just the same, but less complicated. /bitchrant
    • I think the solution Pac posted in the other thread is the way to go with the top screen; I have an ADM Q50 and I only use it for 2 things: 1. Reverse or front camera as triggered automatically by Reverse selection or the front sonars, and you can also call up the front left (or front) camera when parking by hitting the camera button on the centre console if necessary 2. Navigation. I can assure you that getting hold of a 10 year old nav system is utterly useless. The ADM system still has Inifiniti dealers marked (always give me a good laugh), is missing all new freeways, uses fixed speed by road type to determine arrival time, no traffic/re-routing, no speed cameras, no user reported cameras etc etc you get the idea So, Pac posted in the other thread about a box that plugs into the USB C and gives you full Android OS to run whatever modern/connected nav you want on the top screen, and it still automatically switches back to function 1 above when required because it runs within the head unit. The other modern alternative is the latest version of the Tesla screen like this:  https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007511322502.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.25.33cefEZifEZibq&algo_pvid=cdae429c-aa8d-437f-a436-c727fee85461&algo_exp_id=cdae429c-aa8d-437f-a436-c727fee85461-12&pdp_npi=4%40dis!AUD!2181.36!1265.19!!!9834.81!5704.20!%402101c71a17362022663526105e36d7!12000041077843545!sea!AU!163137612!X&curPageLogUid=F9811g8oqx5H&utparam-url=scene%3Asearch|query_from%3A But I haven't looked into whether it is compatible with Australian 4G bands yet so it may require a separate 4g dongle to provide data
    • In the 32 race car, I basically run what Gary told me and it is lovely across a range of conditions which is what I needed. I've got revalved bilsteins, adjustable solid sway bars, adjustable bushes all round. Just looking at Neil's R33 GTST and it has pretty much the same on board, Gary Bilsteins, Selby/whiteline sway bars.  Gary knows suspension generally and these cars specifically very well across street, street/track and track only use and gives a very well balanced set up. Just be aware his preference is for light springs and heavy sway bars, there is another school of though (eg MCA) that prefer lighter swaybars and heavier springs/shocks. The evo I raced had that setup and it was also very nice so there are multiple ways to skin cats.
