hello

I have recently brought a 1994 r33 with a RB20e in it, i was just wanting help on what modification i could do to it to get maximum legal horse power. I am on my P plate so unable to turbo it. I have already brought a pod filter for it and am currently building a cold air box for it.

Just wanting to know the best mods and are there any good performance chips out there?

would appreciate your help, i know its a shit engine so please no criticism.

Thanks in advance

max power you would most possibly get without opening up your engine would be the 150hp mark.

but it will be an expensive trip.

N/A tuning is not for the shallow pocket, nor for the faint hearted, thats why BMW M power and AMG cost the goods :D

like said above, wait till your off your p's or just buy a s2000. they haul ass

don't spend a single cent on it. if you want more power, sell it and by a r33 with the rb25 in it. that alone will see you get a roughly 40kw gain in power. the amount you would have to spend on your motor to even get close to that would be close to what you could buy a second complete car for, plus it wouldn't be P plate legal. you will only get a few kw gain from any mods that will be P plate legal (and not to mention the fact that any mods that will gain you more than a few kw will cost a buttload). to be honest, you would've been better off buying a different car. a commodore, falcon or even a lancer would beat your car. and for those that know me will know what the next car recommendation will be (and it isn't a magna, it's the other one). my choice would've been a SSS pulsar. it has more power than the rb20E in the skylines (9kw more), and the car weighs less (over 100kg less).

probably not what you wanted to hear

      No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.

      Cleaning my wheels 😍

      Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.

      @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣

      Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.

      Probably a smart choice to buy one vs build, purely for the motivation part as you said! Imagine the metal dust everywhere from grinding all the steel to build one. Ha ha ha!   Also, post a photo of your garage.   Mine is below, this is where I've been cleaning and have already half filled a caged 6*4 trailer. And this is after my cleaning expedition mentioned previously... The middle normally has a car in it, but I'm dumping things in the middle as I sort through them. And poor skyline was dusty and has had the lightest few drops of rain and now it looks atrocious and needs to be dragged back out and washed thoroughly! And yes to the right is technically another bay, you really can only see 2 bays out of 3 in this picture.
