    What Chip Do I Pull On My R33 Gtr To Make It 2wd?

    in Drivetrain and transmission

    Posted

    You CAN make an R33 GTR real wheel drive only, WITHOUT removing the prop shaft. I have done this many times for dyno runs.

    Under the drivers side dash, there is a small brown plug with a yellow wire.

    Disconnect this with the car turned off.

    Then when you start the car, pump the brake pedal 8 times in 5 seconds and you will see the light flash on the dash. Then drive the car forward for a little bit to complete the depreasurisation.

    This de-preasurises the centre diff housing, but also disables the A-LSD diff on V-Specs, but this is no problem on a dyno.

    Once the key is tuned off, this resets the centre diff to re preasurise

    This information came from the towing recomendations section from the skyline service manual.

    Hope this helps!

    R33 GTR Front Diff

    in RB Series - R31, R32, R33, R34 (1986-2002)

    Posted

    Hi All,

    I'm after a front diff, in good condition, for a R33 GTR VSPEC. My diff has a chipped tooth, so a good crown wheel and pinion would probably do. The gears are reversed in the front diff, so a rear 1 doesnt substitute. I'm in the Melbourne area. Are there any reasonably priced after market units available?

    Thanks.

    RB26DETT Valve Clearences

    Sure a hairline crack will lose you compression regardless what tolerances you have but you have low comp on all 6  . I would be checking the cyl head before puting it back together if i was you .

    Did you have 100% compression before this ?

    Stock pistons you have 1.5 thou clearence , forgies it depends on the brand but around 4 thou .  

    The cam would have stopped on all the rear cylinders , only the front part would be turning .

    Have had the head checked out again by the guy who rebuilt it. He has fixed the loose valve settings with the shims. All the valves were fine. Looks like the tap to the tops of the pistons broke the seal the rings had. Top ring had been hammered from extra boost from previous owner. Second ring was a bit wide in the gap. This was causing the crank case to get preasurised from blow by. Now getting oversized forgies 20thou and hone. Fully balancing bottom end.

    Are you sure when the can broke it didnt damage the valves ? look at it this way , the exhaust valves are down ( broken cam ) pistons come up the will hit the valves and maybe bent them , just like before . If you  have cracked pistons you should be able to see something and you cant have broken rings or ringlands and unmarked bore , surely you will see some scoremarks !!

    I would look for another engine builder if i was you as well !

    Valve's are all ok. From a visual inspection of the parts today, could not see what was causing low compression. The cyl's that the cam stoped turning on, actually had the higher compression. I was told the pistons in these engines run such fine tolerances that a hairline crack could be quite possible.

    So am getting forgies as their not much more than standards. Getting 20 tho overbore, fully ballanced bottom end, done by a mob who build race and drag engines. This will help with engine response rev speed.

    Anything else i should do to the bottom end while its in bits?

    Good point. You just made think of something. Leakdown test on first go showed 3%. Then the exhaust cam broke (head rebuilder tensioned too much in middle first im guessing) when it was first started. Cam replaced. Idle good. No power. Leakdown test showed 25% on some cyl. I'm going to have to check with the guy who did the leakdown test, but im guessin its the same cyl's that the exhaust cam stoped turning on and its over preasurised the cyl and damaged something.

    Sound like a feasable theory?

    You probably find that you have some bent valves . did you check compression before you stripped the engine ? if yes and you ahve already servied the cil head , check the top of the piston in cil that compression was down for cracks . You will need a big magnifing glass , then check the bore for scoremarks . If there is no marks on the bore the rings will be o.k. and if there is no cracks on the pistons they will be o.k. too .

    If the engine is old then have the bottom end done as well .

    ALL valves were bent. ZERO compression. Got head fixed and back on (all new valves/ shims/ guides) 130 comp and with oil in cyl, 190 comp. No score marks in bore. So was guessing ringlans, but will check top of pistons.

    Going to change them to forgies if their stuffed. Engine only done 60000km and last 10000 on freeway. Never seen any bad smoke besides some black under boost. Really got me stuffed, but i'll know monday when its all apart.

    Thanks guys. I was looking at getting the Arias pistons. They come with rings already. Should i use these or should i go for the N1 Piston rings? Also looked at HKS but have heard that they are just re-stamped other brands. Are the Arias good bang for my buck? (pardon the pun)

    Have any of you used the Upper Oil restrictor Kits? I think Tomei make 1 but 1 cant seem to find anyone who supplies them or much info.

    What are the standard rods like? I will probably put ARP rod bolts in as i have heard this is a weak point. Wont be pushing much over 8000rpm.

    Also, I still only have stock cams, but was wondering if adjustable cam gears would benifit me in any way. If so, what way should they be adjusted for different performance settings? New cams possibile down the track.

    Car will be for sale after this is all done. I'll do a dyno run and a 1/4 mile run and post the results. Price still to be decided, but if your interested, let me know.
