hey guys just after some advice on turbo upgrade i have been thing/dreaming about.

I have a r33 gts-t and was wanting to get it up to around the 300rwkw mark but im no mechanical guru so i have no idea what extra mods need to be done to suport this upgrading in power. so any sugestions would be great.!

If possible suggestions of a turbo that will fit low mount...

i have a TRUST V-SPL FMIC and a PowerFC so what else will i need for this upgrade.? thanks.!

Hey man i was headin in your direction aswell,

but not as yet, as i have alot of saving to do

I would be looking into the gt3040, gt3071r, gt3540

supporting mods would include fuel pump

upgrade on your clutch

thinking about brakes

injectors

cams

upgrade AFM

Do you have a boost controller, exhaust,

cause with your upgrade on turbo you will be changing you dump to suit the turbo

are you wanting to keep the turbo on standard manifold

if you are you will need internal wastegate.

External wastegated turbo be easier in buyin a low mounted manifold with wastegate pipe on it already.

How much power do you have at the moment?

Some things to think about , just things i have found out along the way.

I have, power fc just installed and tune yesterday with

3"1/2 exhaust, split dump pipe, AVCR, FMIC and converted gearbox to manual. has 187.6rwkw on 10psi.

im looking at fuel pump, regulator and injectors next , then last turbo.

tehn i'll be gettin into cams.

Thanks barret

- injectors

- AFM

- turbo - GT30

- fuel pump

- clutch

That will get you on the way... if you want the motor to take the beating

you'll have to rip the motor out and rebuild it with better internals.

GTR Rods, Forged Pistons etc etc. On goes the list, if your not doing it youself its around $7000 motor in/out etc.

Basically 300rwkw is a 5 figure adventure whether initially or not too far down the track...

However if you settle for 260rwkw (from a GCG hi-flow or similar) then your looking at around a $4000 adventure at the most.

For the sake of a 40kw if your on a budget thats my reccomendation

As for more details on that, use the search button for GCG hi-flow and similar.

thanks for the advice guys, i think i might settle for 260kw if its gonna be that much cheeeper...

i got 180kw atm aswell..

this is the zorst system i got in at the moment.

Pacemaker 3” Front Pipe

Catco 3” High-Flow Cat Converter

HKS Super Dragger 3.5” Catback System

i also have a Exedy Heavy Duty Organic Clutch do you think that will b able to take 260kw.?

thanks again.!

    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
    • Shall we... wake you up when September ends?  
    • I got the Repco video recommended on YouTube.  
    • Welcome Mark. Do you have a Skyline or are you looking to get one?
