Hello so I've brought a R33 Gtst. My first ever turbo car. Im looking to get it around 350 HP at the wheels. Now I've been doing a bit of research and I think I've found a good list of parts I need to make this possible. Just want to see what you guys think before I blow all my money. (Car at the moment is bog stock. Car is also automatic. I kind of want it for drags and circuit. I know manual is better but my daily is manual I wanted something different)

Parts:

-Intercooler

-Turbo smart boost tee & Boost guage

-Nismo 555cc injectors

-Turbo gt3037 (do I need better?)

-Apexi power intake

-Walbro 255 L/PH fuel pump

-Low mount & dump pipe

-R33 S2 AFM (Or Z32?)

-Lightweight pully kit

-And a tune (what's best tune to get).

This car is a track car so not ever going to be road legal so dont mind if I have to straight pipe or what ever.

Would that be enough to make 350 HP at the wheels? Or would I need a few more upgrades. Money isnt too much of an issue but would rather keep it below 2-3k.

Cheers guys

if you feel like saving money then just get a hypergear highflow done to your turbo.Those injectors and 18psi on petrol will make 350rw ponies easy.

Adaptronic ecu is much better than a nistune + Z32 afm

Although 3k might be a little optimistic as around 2k for ecu and turbo, then it needs tune for around 60-1000 depending on where you go, then there's still a fmic kit and exhaust

Guess I'll be spending more money then haha

hyper gear high flow 850.

full 3 inch exhaust and dump, 2-400 drift sales.

injectors and fuel rail, again bargains to be had second hand, 2-800

tune 750

emanage blue 200 dollars or power fc 6-900

fuel pump 100 bucks.

e85.

will make your power figure easily.

Have you played with the cam timing on the 32 ?

I see in your sig your 33 has a fair few bolt ons, what does the 32 have ?

I guess its your 32 that has 271kw ( if written respectively) plus the 32 GTR is 40kg heavier then the 33 GTS-t and there's fark all difference :/ , try getting the LCAs of the 32 cams to 110-108deg and see if there is still fark all difference :D

or try taking your motor thats been dialed in, and doing power runs at a further 20 degree intake retard, or a 20 degree advance, and see if there are any areas where you can from the extra advance, this will show you the use for vct

    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
