13.4 second 1/4 for your 'stockish' R33. (A how to guide).


Recommended Posts

Am using organic clutch still - unlike many with the ceramic sprung, etc...am not making enough power for them and like the drivability of the organic.

I think good tire warming may have a bit to do with it too :cheers: although they are radials.

I will post my time slip up soon.

Just a question,

What "mode" do you have the Whiteline craddles set at?

I would assume max traction, but does this have a negative effect on cornering ability in every day driving?

Also what is the widest tyre you can fit on a standard skyline rim?

I want to know something about my R33 GTS25T.

Are there two boost points on the wastegate. Do I need to put two boost controllers on my setup or just one.

Can I eliminate the second boost point, if that is a good idea.

Don't know what to do. Have one turbosmart boost valve.

Any ideas???

Falconsvo,

You only have one wastegate, but the standard GTSt has a boost solonoid mounted on the side of the pas' side strut tower, which jumps the boost up about 2psi at 5000 or 5500 rpm (can't rem which, it has been a while since my car was stock). You can disconnect the hose's to it and block them off, which will remove this boost jump and make it easier to raise your boost.

Jeff.

    • Way more than 1cm. Appreciate the advice maybe I try changing the bushing first
    • IMG_8641.mov     She doesn’t sound the best but starts with out using any gas now. I just ran some injector cleaner through her. started roughly the first time after adding it but gave it the beans slowly upto 4k, Must have cleaned a few cobwebs out. another step in the right direction for the sub
    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
