Hi Blu32GTR, the injectors will only spike over 80%, only over by 3 or 4 percent. The dual stage boost controller has its standard setting on about 12 psi, and with the launch switch activated the car runs on 19-20 psi. The guys at unique auto sports have set all this up on the dyno and I havent tampered with it, except to turn the boost down a couple of pounds as the days have gotten hotter.

Its just had a new (reconditioned) engine put in under 3k ago, spent over 6 grand and have reciepts for all the work done. reason for replacement engine was incorrect tuning for australian fuel, (modded ecu in Japan) and new tune via power fc is healthy and clean. If price is too much for you I will sell cheaper with standard mags, there is over $15000 worth of extras alone on this car so I think price is reasonable,

Hi again,

the injectors are standard as far as I know, as is the fuel pump. The 265's are michelin sports and they have about 60% life left in them. They are a good tyre though, and I haven't seen any wear since I brought them 3k ago, second hand when I got the mags. the fronts are only 5% worn if that, and have heaps of life left in them. 216 rwkw was made @ top boost, at about 6000rpm. Obviously the pneumatic turbosmart system is inferior to an electronic boost controller and the ebc will net a better power figure and curve when installed and tuned correctly. You can pick up a boost control kit for the powerfc which is excellent and allows boost changes via the hand controller. They are about $450 down here, but they may be a little cheaper up in qld..?

If you look at the dyno sheet it actually made 216rwkw @ only 13psi....which is very impressive, if the turbo could be sorted to hold boost to redline it would probably make and extra 30rwkw....might be as easy as a HKS actuator $150 from greenline.

Nice car, great buy.

Hey BOOSTD your right, I just figured out that I've been looking at the sheet wrong the whole time!! Yeah The car still has lots of potential, may as well go electronic boost controller that should fix the problem, although HKS actuator would help with this setup soon.

yes, boost comes on quick, you gotta be very careful in the wet. I love the response of this turbo. Ive raced a Datto 1600 which had 190 rwkw (and was considerably lighter) but just couldnt get me because boost didnt come on for him until the last 2500 rpm in his rev range. Lag sucks huh? Anyone want to hazard a guess as to what sort of power increase I would get with an extra 7psi up top?

"$23 500 is a lil steep" please keep the comments to pm only and not in the main post. Steep? based off what?

spare R33 GTR front bar $500

$28,900

and you get all that tuned (which costs a lot too) for $23,500

no i dont know this person, merely pointing out that some people expect to much

still think its steep?

those are very conserative prices and dont include fitting and turing

intercooler supplied and fitted will be around 1600, the turbo would be $2500 fitted (or more)

and it looks as though he is using a Tanabe Racing Medallion muffler. Which arent cheap too..

Yes Tanabe muffler it is. Thanks paul, its nice to have someone point this out besides myself. Pics sent to mike J, but email is full... empty and I'll send you more
