Finally Bought My Dream R33 Gtst Now To Customise

[sinister industries]

hi all found this site and couldnt resist

bought a import r33 gtst

i got it really cheap as the there was a shit load of parts missing from interior but finnally got that sorted

i got plenty of questions for nsw sydney people on like places to go to find mo info on wat parts are in my engine and things so that help would be appreciated.

attached photos of how she is now

from my research i know it has a bigger turbo than standard

has a front mount intercooler

i installed volt guage and didgital boost guage and greddy turbo timer.

firrst question may sound dumb but i feel its under powered and spludders around 4500rpm and if i go past 1/4 throttle

i am led to my investigation its due to intercooler and bigger turbo intsalled by previous owner and if it this do i need a aftermarkt ecu or just a nistune ecu

thanks for reading if u actually do hahha

you coulkd be right. however id be checking your coilpacks. 4.5k is where they notoriously break down. if your modding go a full set of splitfires or brand new nissan ones. also if it does have a bigger turbo but standard ecu it would drive like shit... and i mean shiiiiiiiiiiiiit.

First off, congrats.

Second, this is the place for all information.

Third, did you get a comp test done? Change the spark plugs and gap them to 0.8mm. See if that makes any diffence. Then take your car to a tuner and get the nistune that you suggested. It will do fine.

Is your car running more than 10psi? Or is it at 7psi?

Best thing would be to just throw it on a dyno and see what is going on with it.

Thanks for the replies yeah I know about the notorious flat spot but its wierd cause even if I go slow it does and worse if I punch it past

well on my boost guage it goes to 10 plus psi and shits itself real bad at 11psi

I have done plugs and gapped them coil packs are fine I think

your engine is going to die. lol turn boost down to 7 until you can tune it.

Head over to Adaptronic too. Have a look at the Select range of ECUs.

Direct plug and play, no need to cut or mod anything to fit the ECU.
