Ok I have copper ones now. I am currently testing on other skylines.

I think it is safer if using the stock intercooler to run 9-9.5psi which is what the latest ones have been made to.

Please note these are mostly for stock cars. Please check you have the solenoid shown below otherwise this piece will not work.

If you want more boost you can easily drill out the provided piece (You will only need to take a 0.2mm bigger drill bit to make about 1-2psi increase). But it is better to run 9-9.5psi.

Ok You will get instructions I put together with illustrations on how to fit this piece and how to fit a boost gauge. And you wiill get the copper piece for $15 delivered.

Sorry about the price increase but I have broken a lot of small drill bits etc

I do have a few different size drill bits so you can let me know what boost you want to run but it will vary up to 1psi between cars so I want to really be a bit cautious and let you drill it out if you want more boost. The drill bits are only about $2 and you shouldn't break it as you will only be widening the hole a small amount

Yeah I do. I'll be making some more over the next few days.

Most people are happy with 9-9.5psi. Not much gain on stock cooler over this.

I can kind of tailor it to what you want slightly, but there will be a bit of variation between skylines (up to 0.5psi). All the R33s tested on have had a stock intercooler, but I guess front mount shouldn't change things too much, maybe will run slightly higher boost.

I don't recommend over 9-9.5psi on the stock exhaust either.

Pm replied. Sorry, I will get to everyone over the next few days. I've been busy at work etc. I will make up some more over the next few days.

Due to the amount of drill bits I've broken etc and the time involved the cost will be $20 including instructions on how to fit it (and how to fit aftermarket boost gauge), the piece, and clamps.

I think it is still reasonable value as it shouldn't need adjusting (you can widen the hole easily with a drill if you want slightly more boost), looks stock, and allows you to return to stock in a minute. You also don't even need to disconnect any hoses except off the solenoid. You also don't wreck your solenoid by putting a constant earth to it (which I had before), down the track I may use it for an electronic boost control so I don't want to fry it.

I'd like to recommend benl1981 for being a great seller. Organised delivery of the product very fast, printed out the instructions for me in colour, and went the extra mile compared to what most sellers do.

Great, cheap product, with a decent performance gain.

Thanks again,

Tommo.

ey, on the Ebay.com link you say the stock R33 run 4PSI under 4500RPM, is that right? i tought they run 7PSI, or is 7psi @7000rpm? correct me if im wrong.

: Refer to this SAU tech thread

I'm sure you can feel the power increase at 4500rpm.

Cheers,

Tommo.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.

      Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By MBS206 · Posted

      The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
