Mate ill give you the best advice you'll find on this forum

search

this has been covered 100's of times.

GT30, 500-600hp is the way to go.

Search and hav e a read of all the threads and thier comments and then post if you have any further questions (which i doubt you will)

I've gone into depth as have many other's using the GT30.

GT35 is too big for a true fast streeter

Your 33 is just a normal gtst isnt it? It looks like a s2 with some wild body kit and massively pumped guards. If it is a 25 then you will need the injectors for the power...the turbo will make it easy. Std internal limit is about 400rwhp. but i dont think anyone recommends going over 250-260 rwkws, So i would think pistons are a definete, maybe rods also. I know camshafts will help reduce the massive lag you will have with the turbo. If your only chasing the 300 rwkws a smaller turbo will do the trick and you wont lose out on so much response, unless your only after the high power and top end approach.

I think a lot more people are recently posting these questions about the GT30 and 35 units because they are at such a good price. Maybe it would be worthwhile making one such thread that covers both these turbos sticky.

I think R31Nismoid is on the money suggesting the GT3040 unit. I think the .82 housing is the way to go for your set up. But if you don’t mind a bit of lag the GT35R is not so bad either. On an old post on this forum someone stated that a GT3040R with 1.06 housing performs the same at the GT35R with the .82 housing. Maybe do a search and have a read as there is a wealth of info on here.

Turbo specs: GT3040R comes in .63, .82, 1.06 housings and is rated between 500-600hp

GT35R also comes in .63, .82, 1.06 housings and is rated between 600-700hp

And dude, that is one wide body skyline!

    • This isn't for lotsa powers, and time and effort isn't even a thing I'm concerned about The whole reason is "Just because fun", and "Just because fun" is what I do And whilst there are other kits, with better and more modern turbos (Rev9 use the same Kraken manifold I believe), where in Sydney can I do a drive in drive out with the after sales support that MX5 Mania give My Turbo 86 made around 200kwatw on a AVO turbo kit, and was over 100kg heavier than the MX5, but it was a blast to drive around the streets, until I crashed it.....DOOH, so somewhere around 200 ish level and some whooshy noises and I'll be happy driving to work, the shops, or heading into the country with Jackie for Devonshire tea So, thanks Dose for your info, it sounds like a 0.64 will be fine for what I'm after👍 The only real racing I do nowadays is to the toilet  
    • Hey @Butters, did you end up getting this clutch in ? I have just ordered to a uniclutch track to go in my getrag 6 speed that’s in my BNR 32     
    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
    • Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?
    • This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.
