Problem with the R33 GTR is the weight in front especially in the suspension arms and that massive cast upright boat anchor. Light weight chromolly is the go for it all, and the subframe.

A quick fix for the cast iron block......put A VQ in it! :P

We swapped out clutches and flywheels yesterday,,,factory flywheel 9.7 kilo's and an Exedy race puppy 6.5 kilo's = -3.2.

No point weighing clutch and pressure plates,,,way to many different combinations involved.

Great way to loose weight though and helps a turbo engine do everything better and quicker.

Cheers

Neil.

If you can live without the HICAS system F it off and pull all the crap out that comes with it. Theres a little bit of weight there I'd imagine. I'm waiting for my Cusco Hicas replacement configuration and I'll be removing as much of it as I can

      R34 RB20DE NEO + T ONLY

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      See my post here If you put the Haltech in, you won't have to worry about any of that. And, in case you're worrying about my lack of credentials in doing your exact swap, I put a Neo in an R32. There has never been a stock boost solenoid near my car and the Neo's ECU has never cared. Nor should it, because it is electronically impossible for it to care.

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      That's 100% wrong. Did you wire in the boost sensor? If you did not, then that is 101% your answer. Neo ECUs do suck a bit.

      R34 RB20DE NEO + T ONLY

      By Sxnjeet · Posted

      Hello, I'm trying to make this thread basically the thread with all the answers to common questions regarding specifically the RB20 DE NEO + T engine, that comes in the R34. Answers will and only should be provided by those who have done this conversion or actually have some relevant real life experience please. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments if you have any so other members can answer. I feel like this thread is really needed, especially with more Americans buying (unknowingly going to regret it too) rb20 neo r34s. My first question being - What do you guys use for tuning? I have purchased a haltech elite 2500 Plug and play kit for the rb25det NEO because the ecu plug is the same, but I am unsure if any of the pins would need to be repined to match. Second question that I see asked very often - After this conversion, did you install the boost solenoid/ actuator? I see many people doing a + T setup on their rb20 NEOs while running stock RB25DET NEO ECUs with no tune. I am wondering how they are going about doing that and consistently abusing the car because many of these people have had these untuned setups running for a very long time. That was my original plan, but my engine cuts out at 5 psi of boost using the stock ecu with no tune and no boost solenoid/actuator.
