Hi. Im thinking of spending $5k on my R33 GTS-t. So far it has POD, 3" zaust from turbo, 'cooler and is lowered with mags.

Any suggestion as to what to spend this $5k on? i admit i dont know much about this stuff, but was thinking maybe new turbo, injectors, fuel pump, computer etc. does anyone have any advice about this stuff? brands, sizes etc.

thanks for any help.

Hey mate i have a turbo package that would suit you, its only $1000,00. Which includes turbo, waste gate, all braided lines and chrome rfittings to suit, also comes with a hks pod filter and custom turbo blanket. That would leave you with $4000 and you could get a power fc and hi flowed injectors fitted and tuned for $2500. Than get a fuel pump bout $400 fitted and than the use the rest to set up the turbo it come with a factory warranty as well. Just a thought i can send u pics of the turbo if you like.

nengun had a gtrs for rb25 kit for $4500 i think it was. powerfc, boost controller kit, gtrs turbo, injectors all fittings and gaskets etc. would be well suited. however you would still need a clutch, good tyres and a set of cams for more midrange power. the gtrs on rb25 can do around 260rwkw (ish) check out rb25 turbo upgrade thread a few months ago.

I just did the gtrs $2912, 6 nismo 555cc injectors $939, power fc and boost kit $1510 + $250 shipping got 270rwkw at 1.2 bar and good response. Also need z32 airflow meter $295 and dyno tune and installation. But you could do it with out the z32 and injectors and keep the boost a bit lower and keep it under 250rwkw.

HD Clutch =$1200 installed

exhaust side adjustable cam gear - $250 installed

PFC + boost controller kit= $1500 + fitted & tune ($400)

Borch Fuel Pump $350 installed

gcg BB high flow - 1800 installed

220rwkw should not be a problem

once u got the $$ for injector and head gasket 250+ is achivable

      R32 gtst speedo out by 10kph

      Nope. The seal is in the drive. A new cable would just fill up and continue to convey oil to the speedo head. To check if this is what is happening, take the cluster out, dismantle the speedo and have a look. You probably don't even have to dismantle it. If there is oil coming up the cable, the drive into the speedo will be grossly greasy. I had to manually (and delicately) clean the gunk out of my speedo.

      Thanks for the quick response mate, and I agree Nismo 555s, Z32 and high flow 2871 in OP6 housing (run by PowerFC) would all be "period correct" and should be a simple, reliable and reasonably quick track car.

      It is normal for a speedo to read 0-10% high (unfortunately), intended by manufacturers and ADRs (although not in this case) to ensure your speedo does not read low if your tyres are worn. Speaking of which, what size tyres do you have on the rear, and what does they tyre placard say you should have? you can use this https://tiresize.com/calculator/ to determine what % difference that is causing Personally, when I buy tyres for a car I buy a size that will bring the speedo back to being more accurate; it if it reads 5% high I buy tyres that are 5% larger diameter. If you had an electronic speed sender like R33 onwards, the other option is to add a speedo adjuster but that won't work in R32. Finally, you  might be able to find a different sized gear for the speedo sender but that will be limited to what already exists (and I don't know what sizes do)

      OK...so dumb question to check....do the hi beams actually come on when the push the stalk to engage them (keeping in mind your headlight switch must be at ON as well)
