Gday everyone, this is my 1st post.

im seriously thinking of getting a R33 GTR.

What would be needed to get the car into the 11-10's 1/4mile ?

I have a very lame knowedge of skylines and have been a holden fan. Currently owning a VXSS tricked up and it runs a 12.2 on streets. but being 22 i need more. i want to see 11 to 10's and its getting time to sell the VXSS.

How much money would need to be spend on the GTR to see 11's ?

and whats a good imported R33 GT-R worth ? im guessing around 45?

any help would be AWSOME !!

thanks

MELV

A guy on this forum has a R33 gtr running ~10.4sec 1/4 miles

Name is Leewah, give him a PM and ask about the cost. My guess is about another $25-30k after purchasing the car. This would be a quality job that is still drivable

the r33 gtst that they use is up for sale for $40 000 something i think which seems like a lot cheaper way to do it to me, they also said that the car is capable of alot more but there not touching it cause its for sale its 400hp at the wheels its suppost to be the fast 2.5 in the country at the time

if you dont get much out of them try tony rigolies work shop i dont know where they are but the deal with some serious cars and they have a shop in sydney and on the goldy they have an r33 gtst that there trying to get 600hp at the wheels out of with similar upgrades good luck

400hp at the wheels is what I've got now with the NOS kit.

Well with a GTR you first have to decide what target you want. Do you want 11's, or do you want 10's

There is a HUGE difference and cost between the two.

Also a GTS-T is NOT a GTR, so dont compare the two....anybody.

its like saying "my mate bought a torana and did it up for a full cost of $50,000 and it ran 9's", and you spend 50k on a GTR and you get a clean stockish GTR.

If you want a clean GTR, a friend is selling his 33. Pm Leewah, or SIRVROOM.

    • I have a VALCON if anyone wants it, I have no idea why you'd want to have VVT specifically broken out of the ECU as opposed to running it off the FCON/whatever standalone you have.
    • Hi Yes we're a bit optimistic we might get something out of sealing up the two pipes of the external wastegate and reactivating the stock one. I believe the orginal stock wastegate was tack welded shut. It doesn't budge and visually looks closed and sealed. The car has noticeably more lag so it could be at least part of the problem, maybe all. It's definately one of the key changes made since last tune. And it's one that's more difficult to fully understand and measure, not like for instance timing or cylinder compression.  Thanks for that feedback, we'll let you know how this progresses. Fingers crossed.   Regards Rob
    • Transplanting the vvt from a 25neo into an rb26?
    • Well, I was going to say, "Is the wastegate set up so that it is not leaking?" That's actually a different thing to what you're asking about. In theory, if you have allowed the two halves of the manifold to commmunicate (more than the stock manifold does - which is at least a little bit) then the negative effect should be apparent in delayed spool, not in outrigth power. OK, maybe just maybe, a badly set up twin scroll wastegate "crosstalk" might kill the top end, although it's hard to see how. What is happening with the original wastegate in the turbo? is it sealed off properly. If it's left flapping in the breeze, it will f**k everything up. If it is still there, and can be returned to service, I'd be capping off the external (presuming the two halves can and will be isolated from each other after doing so) and have a go with just the stock wastegate. I have an internal wastegate in my highflowed rear housing. The bigger opening and flapper should be fine to >250 rwkW. So there's not exactly a pressing reason to have the external. Done right, an external will give better results. Done wrong, it might just be possible to have worse results. Report back!
