Evening gents from the East coast of the USA.

Names Kym, hubbies name is Jon.  Decided to just share one username. 

Recently acquired a 1995 GTST R33 M Spec for a great deal. Never been modified.  Already getting ideas for her.

Hubbies car is an Evo 8 pushing 780 awhp on a mustang dyno on E85, my 350z is large single turbo making 450 before I built the motor.  

My daily is the Ford Taurus SHO.  AWD twin turbo making about 430awhp at the moment.  Enjoy the photos, and yeessssss that's hubby dressed up as Deadpool with our friends carbon R33.

Thanks guys.  We're looking to do a few bolt ons with the R33... Nothing to crazy ;)

Thanks for the compliments. You'll definitely see more photos and antics.  We go on road rallys to benefit wounded soldiers getting paired with service dogs regularly so more pics to come lol. 

Hubby went as the original STIG and his friend as Trex on the last one lol.

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
