my old r33 gtst ran low 13's consistantly with ;

Standard ecu + SAFC2

205 tyres on stock rims

turbo back exhaust (dump/front pipe custom made at Mettams mufflers in Morley, I thermal wrapped it)

standard air box (K&N element)

standard intercooler

10psi ( bleeder valve)

Pineapples (rear cradle bushes)

Light weight flywheel and upgraded clutch

With just these items I can get any decent nik R33 gtst into low 13's or with bigger tyres on the back straight into high 12's. Low 13's without spectacular 60ft times.

Notice the lack of Front mount intercooler.... Not needed to do this, get a good one when you upgrade the turbo and other kit.

That cars dyno after at the time of the low 13 was 175rwkw. It looked stock and was quiet and comfortable.

The JJR integrated split dump pipes are rubbish. They require machining to align the flange plate properly, the flange plates are sometimes not flat (warped).

Just get something from an exhasut place made. Without the split design. And then thermal wrap it.

My thoughts are that you need to sheild that pod filter. The pod filter if it has no cold air feed and heat shield, sucks in very hot engine bay air.

Or just get a factory airbox and cold air feed from someone throwing thiers away. Perhaps you can even offer to swap. Keeps the cops out of your face too when you pop the bonnet.

Mettams mufflers in Morely is where I have always gone for my cars. Pat there is a master and his quality work is very cheap indeed.

Mild steel dump pipe to the cat in 3 inch. Shouldn't be too much.

Go grab yourself some pineapples for the rear sub frame. they are only a tad over $100 and you can fit them in your driveway with 15min, a bit of effort and a crowbar. Easier if you have a mate to help out.

The clutch is something to save for if you only have a standard one in there as drag racing and the modest power increase will see it on it's way quickly.

When my car was dyno'd at 190rwhp I ran 13.8. It's pretty easy to do so.

The thing about dyno's is that they are really only a tuning tool. Making car comparisons is not what they are good for. :D

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
