I remember first day in mine. First turbo I'd ever been in but the first thing I thought was damn, this thing isn't fast enough!

Now a year later and I'm in the process of getting FMIC, Pod CAI, Bleed Valve to 10psi, dump added to my catback.

Hopefully this will give it the GO I need to be satisfied :(

I must say its been a few days now and I'm here to say I AM SPEECHLESS!

The whistle of my first turbo car, the handling of my M-spec, the short gear shift, the looks that "BETTY" gets at the lights ( Black Betty that is), the sound she makes, the push back in the seat, the envy of my mates, i just cant put it into words!!!!

Thats why I love this site, you have all been there and you all understand the BUZZ!!

I knew from the day I spotted my first R33 that I wanted one and after intence reseach and alot of convincing to the wife over 2 to 3 yrs I have my baby in the garage. It has far exceeded any expectation I had about the nissan skyline package.

Again words fail me, but i can see the money pit before me, and i can see it being there for along time to come.

Oh Black Betty, BAM BA LAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.

      yeah, there's a country that recently started importing Skylines, I blame them.
