cool thnx. I went to dr drift sometime last year and he said $900 to do it.

But il go pass again and ask him.. (busy man)

If u dont mind me asking, How much power did u get with the set up that i got now?

thnx harey :P

I have the same as you except I still have the stock dump pipe. I made 190rwkw with the boost dropping down to ~9psi at redline. Car feels very strong, especially the mid range. Overall I am very happy, I have even decided not to go the next step of bigger turbo etc because it feels great on the road. I am not really into 1/4 mile racing etc, just want a quick streeter. Car is super smooth.

You should make very close to 200rwkw.

Whats your budget? and are you planning on something big in the future?

well if your asking me, My budget is about 6-7k. im looking for 250+rwkw streeter and il be happy. If its gonna cost me that much, I was gonna upgrade it to a GTR.

Point me out to the right direction if u can plz.. good to see u made 300rwkw on yours.

thnx

proven 250+rwkw setup. please keep in mind the price ranges go from basic just jap shit to high end japanese brands

minimum 3" turbo back exhaust ($1500 - $2500)

040 bosch fuel pump ($300)

FMIC ( $300 - $2000

Power FC (or alt REPLACEMENT ECU not piggy back) ($1500 - $2000)

highflow oem turbo (but personally id go with a gt28 turbo) ($800 - $1500 )

personally i would stay away from a highflow, its pointless and a waste. you can spend another $300 and get a gt28 turbo that flows almost 2x as much and is a much better. and you could sell your r34 turbo to someone who does want a highflow for a good $400. the key is to use good parts to give you room to upgrade on later on rather then replacing it all together like shitty piggy back ecus.

Highflow is not really a bad idea if you want to (try) to avoid being raped by the EPA. Same also applies to ECU's. That said if you aren't in vic, or your car is track only then get whatever you want :P

Or you could get a GTR. Most would say that the best money spent on upgrading a GTT or GTST is by selling it and buying a GTR :P

Also:

Injectors 500cc+

Z32 AFM

Upgraded Clutch

I would be surprised if you had it all up and tuned for 6-7k unless you can do a lot of work yourself.

Hi-flowed turbos with OP6 housings are proven +250rwkw turbos.

Off the top of my head I don't know too many GT28 based turbos with a T3 turbine housing unless they are mated to Nissan housings. The HKS GT-RS is one, (the HKS 2835 ProS doesn't count as it is a GT30 based turbo).

The statement about flowing almost 2x as much is completely incorrect.

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.

      I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.

      If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
