I HAVE A ENGINE BEING REBUILT NEXT WEEK FOR MY R33 GTS-T (LATE 1995). I HAVE ASKED FOR THE STRONGEST POSSIBLE ENGINE WITH AFTERMARKET PARTS FOR ABOUT $5600--$6000. CAN ANYONE GIVE ME SOME IDEAS ON WHAT TURBO (NEW) WOULD BE BEST SUITED, IF MY STOCK ONE NEEDS REPLACING (IM CONSIDERING GARRET TO3/TO4)YELLOW, AND ANY OTHER MODS THAT SHOULD BE FITTED TO KEEP THE NEW ENGINE HEALTHY. EXISTING MODS ON THE CAR INCLUDE - APEXI (GT SPEC) INTERCOOLER, K&N POD FILTER, Z32 AFM, JASMA 3.5INCH EXHAUST - WITH 4 INCH TIP, BLITZ DUAL SBC EBC, (NEW) WALPRO 500HP/255L.P.H FUEL PUMP, NEW HKS SSQ B.O.V., ORIG- NISMO FRONT STRUT BAR, NEW CLUTCH, FULL GTR BODYKIT,18In LENZO ALLOYS, NEW BRIDGESTONE POTENZA SO3'S 235X40(FRONT) & 265X35(REAR). IF ANYONE CAN GIVE ME ANY OF THEIR IDEAS ON THE ABOVE AND ON HOW MUCH HORSEPOWER/KW I MIGHT BE ABLE TO PRODUCE WITH THIS NEW ENGINE, IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIAITED. PHOTOS TO BE POSTED SOON!

mate i had my engine rebuilt too and i went the hiflow t3/t4 currently with the microtech computer and 14psi i am pushing out a bit over 300hp at the wheels. I recomend getting a custom turbo manifold, i only have the standard one but am going to upgrade soon. u will however need bigger injectors and perhaps fuel regulator to cope with the increase in power if u are going to run a bit of boost. My turbo starts to spool at arounf 2700rpm and is a full bost by 3600rpm

hope this helps

im not the one to know the best internal stuff but you'll need an oil catch can and definatley at least 550cc injectors, fuel pres reg, id also recommend a custom manifold so it flows better than the stocky ones, im in the process of doin the internals so if anyone has good idea's that would help 2 of us...

cheers...ben.

Thanks mate, I think will go with 550 injectors and a fuel regulator and the manifold. I will have to shop around to find a good deal.

CHEERS, Chris

Thanks Davio, Can you give me a idea where to source a microtech computer and prices involved? I have located a Apexi power FC, but maybe something cheaper?

CHEERS, CHRIS

get the PowerFC.

And take it to RacePace to get it tuned. I would also suggest taking it there for the motor rebuild too if you aint already laid out cash

As for turbo, what power you want?

I'm running a GT30 (600hp) and making ~270rwkw on 16psi at the moment.

RB25 rebuilt with forgies, and GTR rods.

Thanks, I had a look for contact details for RacePAce in the yellow pages online, but couldn't find it. Can you help with the number/site? The engine dosn't start to be pulled out until next Friday and I am at the moment getting Cavehill Engine Services PTY LTD in Lilydale to do the build the engine as they have done a number of these engines and I was referred to them by a Turbo/dyno specialist. I will contact RacePace A.S.A.P
