hi guys .

Im really new to this im just wondering if anybody can tell me how to disconnect the multi stage boost on my r33 gtst?

3 different people have told me different things and now im really confused .

as far as i can gather i need to cut the black wire from the plug that goes to the solenoid but what im confused about is which end needs to go to earth out on the body is it the end that comes back from the solanoid or the end that comes from the engine / ecu ?

i would really really appreciate any advice that anyone can give me thanks matti .

read through what jonno has posted, it will tell you all you need to know. to give you the general idea of it though

start with exhaust. full turbo back. don't bother doing much until that is done.

then get a better quality panel filter or a pod in an enclosure

then up the boost to about 10psi

the front mount intercooler and raise the boost to about 12psi.

ok sorry guys i said completly standard it has a straight through exhaust and 5 inch back box ,

my next idea was to get a apexi pod filter and a twin port turbo elbow for it .

I also did the high boost wire off the solenoid yesterday it made quite alot of difference ... noticibly anyway.

something i dont understand though is on the standard boost gauge what shoud it go up to when the car is boosting hard because mine seems to go

upto the line back from +7 which sort of indicates to me maybe the boost is not as high as it should be standard anyway.

anybody know ? ... and if it is a bit low how easy is it to turn it up a bit and can you do it yourself ?

thanks if anybody knows !

      I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps

      Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks

      small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.

      I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛

      Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
