Hi guys, I'm negative_camber, and I just wanted to introduce myself as I'm a new member. I own a 1995 model Nissan Skyline R33 GTS-T and an Alfa Romeo 33. It's running the RB25 turbo and is pretty much stock. I'll post up some pictures when I get some extra time. I'm pretty happy with it, but I have a dilemma, that maybe some of you with experience can help me out. Is it really worth working on the RB25 turbo, or should I just drop in the RB26DETT from the GTR as I'm able to get my hands on one soon? :)

welcome aboard.

33 GTR's go for 20 to 25 grand these days, not worth the effort building up a 33 GTSt when you can just buy a GTR packing all the stuff from factory. I'd say do some minor mods on the GTSt to make it a fun enough car to drive, then just save up and upgrade to a GTR.

Hi funkymonkey, thanks for your opinion. But I came up with the idea of running a gtr powered gts-t because I think that it would be something a bit different to the norm. Plus I still enjoy the rear wheel drive and I'm in no situation at the moment to get a real gtr cos i'm still on the green p plates and I wanted my r33 to be a sleeper.

Hey Dude,

I'm a bit of a novice with the whole which one is which thing, but at the motorkahna i was just at on sat my favourit cars were a pair of gtst's with r32 bits on em...went great, looked understated. They were they ones I'dve taken home

    • The cam I am actually putting in (a few posts up) is actually smaller than my current one. At least duration/overlap wise. All the chop stuff I hear just sounds like an engine running badly, because it is. I then envision driving it around in 1st gear and being massively sad about it bucking to the beat of said chop. There is an idle video of someone with a similar cam floating around the internet, but mine is a custom cam (so is his) so it'll never be the same, plus the fact exhausts are entirely different. What I want to do is put some bullet mufflers/race mufflers in to replace a couple sections straight pipes that currently replace the two extra cats that I don't need. But this is even further down the line!
    • I can tell you now, when the bracket that the little hydraulic ram attaches to snaps, with a subframe, and V8 from an AMG C63 on it, it sounds like someone letting shotgun off right beside you. It leaves your ears ringing, and a huge thankfulness that you never ever put a body part under something heavy that's only supported by a hydraulic lift...
    • Still not a guarantee fix. I used a high quality butyl-mastiq (the black goo that's not really silicone nor polyurethane, same stuff they use from the factory that just spreads out like melty cheese), and I still get lots of water on both sides of the trunk when raining or washing the car. I also suspect the factory spoiler rubber gasket might not be sealing well, so I'm thinking of adding a thin layer of grey silicone around the bolt holes on both sides and see if that's where it also leaks from. The biggest issue is that these cars don't come with a drain hole on each side like other coupes and hatchbacks.
    • I hate it, but maybe he could paint it Monster jam style and call it...godzilla?
    • Would seem to me to be appropriate to go GTR style bar. There are options with and without N1 vent holes, with the GTR lower lip integral (because FG copy). https://justjap.com/search?q=r32 bumper
