Send PM if they are not sold yet.....

Hi people, Thank you all for the generous comments. I made up my minds with my next step. I go trough a full rebuild of the head, TOMEI Procams, valve springs, service the head, valve cuts. bronze valve guides etc. Also a compression test before removing the head will tell me if I have to do ...more!!!! I spoke with UNIQUE at Luke suggestion and I will purchase the PLAZMAN Plenum to simplify my piping and I will install the recent purchased HKS intercooler to fix my pipe "popping" problems. Once all car back together I will take it to UNIQUE for fine tuning. I want to finish this project and I hope to get to 300 kW at wheels. Most of projects are abandoned due to cash problems... I wanna finish mine!!!!!! Will be tuned for 14.6-16psi (1-1.1bar). Hopefuly UNIQUE will tell me what turbo I have on this car???? I hope you guys watch this when I will post the new DYNA sheet. You have to give me another 2-3 weeks. Cheers, EUG

HKS mainfold is with turbo underneath, wastegate on top. Anyone knows a reliable tuner in Sydney area? Should I go to Croydon?

Hi Paul, Thanks for reply. Exhaust has been upgraded to 3" all the way. Brand new cat converter 3" and Blitz exhaust. Turbo is T04E or something like that, Garrett, part of the HKS kit. Turbo works great. I drove the car hard in the weekend and I even reach 27 psi on my boost gauge. I think somthing is fishy there. Who the hell can sort my problems out???? Cheers, EUG.

Hi people, I know this topic was covered few times but I am trying to seek some guidance from the RB25DET experts. Lots of people are asking how much power you can get from an RB25DET engine? Huh, I think is not quite clear for me yet. Maybe someone can tell me more. I have an R33 Skyline series 1, 1993 model. I had it for more than 3 years now and I like to "play" with it. A few years back now I fitted to the car an HKS kit, turbo series 4+ mainfold+waste gate. This gave a power increase of 30kW with no tuning (still on standard computer). I managed to measure this at SAU dyna day, Unique Motorsport. Here is the recorded graph. After this I decided to get naughty, so I purchased: - Power FC + Commander - APEXI boost controller (power fc) - SARD 550 Injectors - Splitzfire ignition coils - Z32 Air Flow Meter - Cam Shaft Gears Than I looked around for a tuner and I approched Unigroup (Yavuz). He fitted all my parts and had a series of problems with my HKS wastegate and intercooler piping (I have an Mick Metalcraft intercooler fitted by Hills Motorsport). After some work Yavuz managed to make the pipes stay together without popping, and shimmed my wastegate, he said is oppening too quick loosing boost. Huh, I was realy disapointed when after I spend more than 8000 I did not get too much. Only 220kW at the wheel...WHY???? Just an increase of 30kW with lots of dollars. I was expecting something like 270-280 kW to be honest. As you can see in my AFTER diagram car launches but power does not peak at high RPM??? What is going on? Yavuz said my wastegate does not hold pressure, openes to quick. I went out there and bought a spring for my wastegate 1 bar. I would like to run 1-1.1bar (14.6-16psi). After this he did not had much success. Did I hit his limitation? now I decided to replace my intercooler with an HKS, better piping and install an GReddy plenum to simpifie piping. Also, I will rebuild head, with propper components (TOMEI cams and springs + valve cut). My question to you is HOW MUCH POWER can be achieved on standard bottom (lower part) and what you think who is a good tuner in Sydney? Some point in time we need to "stop" the project and call it....DONE. Thank you for your attention. Your comments are much appreciated. Regards, EUGEN

Hi there, I have an R33 GTS-t computer (standard) I removed from my car. It is an ECR-33, manual series 1 (1993). Send PM if you want it. It is $100.00 OK? I upgraded to power FC. EUGEN

If you like to sell the wastegate only send me an e-mail and also tell me how much you are asking for. Cheers, EUGEN PS Do you have any clue the spring in the wastegate for what pressure is?

Careful.....you might just give it..away... EUG.

$25.00 wooow...sold...

Mate, Any part from Hills Motorsports goes in the bin. I had the same experience with my intercooler....bump..bump piece of....**t.... EUG.

Incredible parts, box was still sealed. Geat buy. Thanks mate.....

Hey Mate, Still for sale? How does it sound $240.00 for the lot? Is it still for sale? Cheers, EUG.

Hi there, Where did you find that? I want a set too..... EUGEN

Hi Guys, Thanks for quick reply. Turbo is a GENIUE HKS and included MAINFORLD..Garrett T04E and HKS wastegate. That was ceramic coated inside and outside and was properly done. Turbo works great....but I do not know spring setting in wastegate. Cheers, EUG.

Hi all, I read all sorts of stories about people modifying engines and getting some good results. I had my Line for 3 years now, I am an old guy with no life so I said WHAT THE HECK...LETS DO IT. I went first trough installing my intercooler and single stage trubine booster. All was set up for 14 psi and I was doing around 161 kW at the wheels. After I blew 3 standard tubines I got sick of it so ... I bought an HKS kit, mainfold, T04E turbo and external wastegate. They have been installed by a friend of mine without any tuning, car was doing pretty good, felt pleanty of power, car felt different. At the SAU Dyno day I found out that I was doing somthing like 190kW clean at the wheel. I never saw my boost gauge going over 7 psi and at that moment was hell on earth when the wastegate was opening. I start to look around the net, I love e-bay and I found the stuff I tought would be good for me: Power FC + Commander+Boost Control Kit, SARD 550cc injectors, Ignition Coils, cam shaft gears, upgrade air flow meter, after market timing belt. After that I looked on this forum and I find UNIGROUP, Yavuz and contacted him. He was realy kind and done most of the work for me. The project did not go that easy. Most of the work was done but, 2 major problems developed: pipes popping off at high boost and wstegate did not hold at high RPM. We found exhaust blocked and replaced exhaust but the problem still there. Car lunches incredible at low RPM and than my curve just flattens. I managed to reach only 220kW at the wheel. Yavuz told me to try to get a stronger spring for my wastegate but I don't know how easy is that. Is anyone out there which experienced something similar? I wish somebody would say go do that and all my problems fixed. Somebody with similar setup can tell me what power should I expect at this setup? I added 2 attachemnts of my curves...before and after. Any good comments ar emore than wellcome...(pls no "smart" comments). Did I left any stone unmoved or..there is more...except of course building an engine from scratch aftermarket.... Cheers, EUG.

I am after the bonet trim if in good contidion and front grill. Please send pm with pictures. Thank you, EUG.

Are you willing to ship to Sydney? How much? What is included in the kit. Do you have some pictures showing all the kit? Cheers, EUG.

Hi there, Would the bonet fit R33 Series 1? What price is acceptable to you? How much freight to NSW 2759? Cheers EUG.

I think for a tune you should use a Dyno place. After our Dyno day I think Unique is the place to start. They will look after you is you are SAU member because they are sponsors, but not on labour. I took mine to UNIGROUP. My car is now in there getting a major surgery. The last but not least is CROYDON RACE DEVELOPMENTS. They are good but will cost you. I heard about the HITMAN but never been there.... GOOD LUCK. You have to think what are you trying to achieve. On top of the FC do you have lots of mods? The tuner will bring your car in unison, like a conductor with an orchestra. IT IS AN ART.... EUG.

Don't think just do...may the force be with you...

Thanks Shif, I was trying to be smart..a**... Thanks anyway. So what is the answer, do nothing or hope you do not get pulled over?
