hi guys im new to the skyline world and wanted some advice..... im looking at buying an 1993 r33 skyline. it has 123,000 km, font mount intercooler, exhaust, blow off, turbo timer, boost controller. the guy has told me it is currently running stock on 6psi boost, smooth drive and in excellent conditon.

im more then happy with the looks but am unsure about the perfromance side of things

i wanted to know what u think this car is worth.......... and how many killowatts u think it would have.

im looking for about 220 k/ws and would like to know some safe mods that wont cost to much...

any advise would be great as i know sweet fu*k all the about the modification side of things.

thanks heaps guys

lol currently 6psi so that means before it would have been 10-11psi anything wif a boost controller means they had hight intensions to run higher boost than stock thats for sure, and 220kw yeh nt a high bench mark easy to achive check out the dyno section for rb25det t will give u a fair idea what u will need.

yer not to hard to achieve this. i had roughly the same on my old GTST and made 200 kws easy. The only differance is i had a aftermarket computer, Power FC. Add one of these, get a tune. Done and Done

I also added a fuel pump just to keep things safe....

for those mods you mentioned and the low boost, i would say 160-170kw.

boost is up to 11-12psi and you should see around 200kw, but no more then 14psi as your turbo will not last long

for your target of 220kw, you will need:

hi-flow turbo

fuel pump

ECU - PFC or remap

Please read the FI Guide

There are plenty of beginner/first mod type of threads that everyone should read.

The "what mods to do first" thread is a really great start.

Cheers

      Honestly, for a daily I would gladly rock a Camry. The more disposable the better. People drive horribly out here and road conditions are awful.

      Shifting questions

      Verify it's going into each of the 4 gears in normal acceleration, make sure the torque converter locks up over ~65-70 kph or so at low throttle opening. If you ease into the throttle at those speeds eventually you should get a "gear" between 3rd unlocked and 4th locked. It should downshift eventually if you floor it at 65 kph too. Get some Matic D ATF and drain the pan, check for signs of sadness in fluid and drain plug magnet. Top off to the correct level afterwards. If the transmission is worth saving you can drop the pan on a second drain and change the filter while you're at it. These are not complicated transmissions, at least compared to modern stuff.

      Comfortable replacement seats for R32 GTR

      A seat I find stupidly comfortable to sit in is the one in a friend's Merc Race Car. It even has the huge wings that wrap around your head. Best ever. Only issue is climbing through his scaffolding he put up in the doorway of the car... Ha ha ha. I sat in that seat for a couple of hours doing wiring. Another stupid comfortable seat I find, especially if my back is aching, is my OMP fixed back bucket seat too. I'll just sit on it when I'm exhausted in the garage sometimes to relax!

      I just got off the phone with Dean from Vosta in Brisbane. They are the ones that do the replica seats and they have a shop full of seats for my to try out. Lovely guy.  I haven't decided whether to go genuine or replicas, I'm leaning towards Genuine at this point but who knows.  Also thinking the STRADIAs are the way to go VS the GIAS since they have a lower hip edge and would be easier to get into. Don't really like the idea of arm rests on the models to the right of this diagram either, maybe they can be removed?
