Hey guys...

I am an avid reader of the performance section of these forums but i find that most people serching for more RWKW's rather seconds...

My question is what would be needed to be done to a stock R33 GTS-t to produce 11's, with street tyres, and no MAJOR weight reduction.

I am looking to purchase a 33 very soon and wanting to work it acheive 12 sec 1/4's but just got curious as to what extra would be needed. I also intend on this to be a daily driver with bite.

(BTW I am aware that there are multiple ways for this to be acheived, just looking for the different methods and ideas)

Cheers

Money.

Sorry, couldn't resist it.....

We have a full weight R34 GTT that does 11.7with 310 rwkw on Nitto radials. So do a search for how to get 300 rwkw out of an RB25DET. There would be at least 50 that I have posted to. Take your pick of methods and then stick a pair of Nittos on the back and, as long as you can drive, and the track is is good condition, an 11 is achievable.

Hope that helps

Try and do it with the stock turbo :D.

I'd be looking at BFG drag radials tyres wise and a good working over of the suspension. With BFG's you should get the 60ft down to high 1.5's / low 1.6's (like to see that out of sh*tto's). A modifed transbraked Turbo 350 auto with a 5000rpm high stall and a lower diff ratio might help too.

Hi rev, Wilson did a 1.45 on Nittos, Munroe did a 1.48 and Lee did a 1.6. I've got plenty more examples if you like. None of those were in Perth though, in fact I can't find any decent radial tyre times from Perth. Must be the track.

Just make sure you try and buy one with the basics already covered, otherwise it'll add up to "may as well just get a GTR" territory.

If you can find one with FMIC, full exhaust, boost controller, suspension, aftermarket ECU, and hopefully a few other extras for around $20k, that might save you $10k just there. That might make a budget of getting there below 35k possible.

Then your concerns will be building the internal strength of the motor, turbo and the required support systems for that. Otherwise, yeah, just find one already done .. it may be boring but it will save you a **** load of money.. over the last year or so I've seen quite a few GTS-T that will do mid-12's for $25-30k

Yeah i spose i never thought of that.

I am a huge fan of the GTS-t as a quick but non-expensive car and also has the looks. The main reason i was after a GTS-t was the rear wheel drive aspect. How hard is it to turn a GTR into rear wheel drive?

Cheers

    • Is it a dog or synchro box? I guess either way, if it is new and crunching in one gear only, it has to come out and go back to the shop to check/measure as there is either an assembly or manufacturing issue
    • These are small points I should actually add to my original post. GKtech makes an extended slave line for this conversion. It's what I use, and it works well. You'll also need a CD009 slave cylinder.  S/R Chassis Z33/Z34 Conversion braided clutch line As for transmission sensors, you'll need to both extend the wiring and replace the connectors. I can't recall which is which, but one is your neutral switch and the other the reverse switch. As they are just switches, just test for continuity with your transmission in neutral or reverse to figure out which is which.

    • I’ll try and see it could be the release bearing. As for the 4th gear grind maybe clutch doesn’t disengage properly cause it is slightly like very slightly hard to go into first could be due to the slab cylinder pin being short uni clutch is a twin plate.   Ive attached some assembly photos hopefully you can open the link and see maybe detect what’s wrong https://share.icloud.com/photos/0dc2YvW__Hl6jl-l2_0jejjpg https://share.icloud.com/photos/09e0jkWOK-vP48c1cfY6u3ViA https://share.icloud.com/photos/0b4rDmh5R7pK7fb1VtND73a3g https://share.icloud.com/photos/05eeUi_6dC4DVi80jOUYDgb0g https://share.icloud.com/photos/06335TgY1XxyIJal_wkdQLhzw
    • Yeah for sure that is peddle adjustment 
    • What are your thoughts on this after having it for a while, worth getting?
