I've just recently bought an r33 gtst series 2 (1996). It currently has 360rwkw on eflex.

Current setup...

Greddy plenum

740cc side feed injectors

Blitz front mount

6boost manifold

Gt3582r

Walbro intank

Surge tank

Aeromotive A1000 fuel pump

And other bits and peices...

So I want to make about 450-500rwkw.

Im going to get an eflex sensor to be able to run up to 85% ethenol and 98 in emergancies.

This is what I want to do...

Head

Supertech 1mm over sized valves(purchased)

Supertech Valve springs (purchased)

Supertech titanium retainers(purchased)

Tomei valve guides

Tomei 270 8.8mm lift cams(purchased)

Tomei 1.5mm metal head gasket(purchased)

ARP 2000 head studs(purchased)

Tomei inlet and exhaust cam gears(purchased)

Bottom end

Spool rebuild kit with CP pistons

Has acl race series bearings and spool conrods etc.

Spool high volume sump

Can someone recommend an oil pump?

New water pump N1?

ARP 2000 main studs

Fuel

Bosch 2200cc injectors (purchased)

Billet fuel rail(purchased)

Walbro 460lph e85 friendly pump

Also will be going larger precision turbo but thats another story.

This list is not exhaustive and any input and opinions would be appreciated.

Are my power figures acheivable and relatively reliable?

Please let me know if I'm on the right track.

I know what your saying, I was thinking of doing a 30 bottom end but I just love a highly strung rb25.

what's wrong with a highly strung RB30? lol

it will make more power under the curve and bring any turbo on earlier than a Rb25

Aaagh. Now you have me thinking again! Lol.

Well the head is pretty much sorted I'll look into the 30 bottom end. What do you recken of the spool rb30 bottom end package??

It looks reasonable...

Would I have clearence issues between my 6boost manifold and the block??

Sorry mate, I just took it for granted that any reasonable person would have all machine work (porting and so on) done when their doing a build like this.

Thats why I didn't mention it.

Can't assume people are reasonable on here!

And I wouldn't group porting with machine work, but whatever.

I would suggest going some more modern injectors. Go top Feed ID's or something. My tuner hates that I have Nismo's, to me the car runs perfect but he reakons he could get it a whole lot sweeter with some ID's etc in there

Bosch injectors no good? I thought they were the same as ID's, they are also top feed. No?

Yes they are the same thing - 89CAL was looking at your current list and missed your shopping list.

    • Got the gearbox in and the front drive shafts.
    • Hi There I went through a rabbit hole of reading about Xenon headlights and the ADR regulations for having them installed. As people have been defected by running factory xenon I was researching in ways to make them compliant. Everyone always say needs to be self leveling and have washer installed, which I don't necessarily agree with. For this argument I'm using R34 as reference as I'm more aware on the construction of the headlight compared to the R33 Xenon, which may still be the exact same case.   For the self leveling clause taken from ADR 13 - Installation of Lighting and Light Signalling Devices on other than L-Group Vehicles As you can see the bold text "these manually adjustable devices from driver seats" are fine to use. As Series 1 Xenon model headlights do have a 4 level adjuster on the right near the ignition (however not series 2) then these model are consider compliant in that argument.   For the Self Cleaning aspect of this argument clause taken from ADR 13 - Installation of Lighting and Light Signalling Devices on other than L-Group Vehicles Now i can understand the argument that Xenon will need a washer as they are over 2000 lumens, but I clicked on the 12 at the end of that sentence and it takes me to the end notes which states R34 for headlight lenses are plastic, not sure if PL is mark as I don't currently have my skyline to confirm that marking is there. But could you not technically get a lenses with the PL marking on it and then get away with the argument that you need a washer. I went through a quick read of the adr and might have missed something else that may cause them to be non-complaint.    But wouldn't these technically be complaint headlights   Would love to hear other people input on this and shed some light   Edit In regard to the the washer portion I might be mistaken ADR 45 (which I believe is Regulation NO.45) states 12 cd (candela) I dont understand that portion in regarding to calculating the candela if anyone can shed some light. Otherwise I guess throw in a washer for the headlight and you definitely comply.
    • Took it to all Japan day, flogged the hell out of it and took it all, am a very very happy man  don’t know how that ended up in Greg’s thread before
    • Hey Nismo, any chance in the world you still have these seats?
    • I'd say closer to OG GTX3582R, just smaller trim - so 59mm inducer/82mm exducer as opposed to 62/82 for the first gen GTX3582R. Yeah EFRs were boss, the EFR8474 is still an absolute beast and it perplexes me that people still go to things like Turbosmart/Garrett etc when the results people are getting with those are pretty unremarkable compared to what you could get with a turbo available well before those options came out.  DriftSquid (I think) "upgraded" from an EFR9174 to a Turbosmart turbo and promised a comparison video - and kinda shuffled awkwardly and did a bit of diversion from the fact that they didn't get any improvement going to the currently massively hyped brand of turbo from a turbo that was a bit of a frankenstein that had been well superceded in it's own range before the Turbosmart unit he put on there even came out. I suspect the EFR would outperform most Xonas for what a lot of less-insane RB owners would go for, in the 400-600kw range but the Xonas are looking hard to beat up to maybe in the mid 700kw range at this stage- basically where EFRs don't really reach, and before the Precision turbos take over.  What the Xonas do well in the "EFR range" is be easier to package etc, and work very well if a divided housing doesn't suit your application.
