Hey, my friend has an R33 GTS-t and is about to install the following mods. He wanted me to ask here roughly what sort of power figure he should expect. Now I know all dyno's read differently but all i need is an estimate as to how much power he will be making, as he is very sure his car will be quicker than my 220rwkw S13 Silvia and I really don't believe it will be.

This competition will be sorted out properly at the drag strip at Calder Park...

His mods are:

exhaust from front pipe back (stock dump still)

FMIC

Pod

HKS Step 1 Cams

Nismo fuel pump

Nismo fuel reg

Bleed valve at 12psi

he will make about 180rwkw no he wont beat you BUT if he installs an ecu and a proper dump pipe you will get beaten.

almost a Vs thread :P

Without an aftermarket ECU or air converter eg SAFC he might even be lucky to get that 180rwkw.

Weird order to do the mods IMO - i would have thought cams would be at the very bottom of the shopping list.

And yes, at Calder you will have his car for breakfast.

Check the dyno thread please. This thread really isnt required.

The results for stock turbos are in there, as are the 100's of other posts on this topic of stock turbo'd R33/dyno results.

And no, unless you cant drive, no way a sil will be slower than a R33 mainly due to the large weight difference

Yes, its a very weird order to do mods. He brought some Nismo 555cc injectors too, but you can't install these with the stock computer, right?

He doesn't want to upgrade the turbo yet, but if i were him I would of brought a Power FC and maybe exhaust manifold instead of the cams and injectors.

R31Nismoid: Sorry dude, I didn't realize the dyno thread was there, thanks for the info.

Coolio :P

Will give him some turbo upgrade ideas for later on down the track too :D

He will need an ECU for the 555's.

And yeah, i agree, PowerFC would have been a "better" first option instead of cams

    • Welcome. Dont let anyone dissuade you from your dreams. If you want a gtr, keep sabing and you will eventually get one. I feel like if I had have bought stocks, those companies would have gone bust and I would have lost my money.  There's a gamble in everything we buy. I've had good times and bad. But... I've also met my absolute best friend through this network and can't imagine life without them(more like a brother). Keep in mind, some specific mods will change as technology gets better. If you feel like general chat, there's always the wasteland.....
    • Those are some very cutesy barriers! Is that common?
    • Saw this abandoned Honda Fit in a carpark that was getting repaved... they just 'cut around it' and continued with the job! There's a number of reasons why the car could have been abandoned, but as for the construction company, legally they don't have permission to move the car from the owner (who has moved on and can't be contacted) so all they can do it just leave it there with enough space around it so it won't get damaged. 
    • You’ll want to have the block drilled and tapped to suit 1/2in head studs and the head for the same. How much power do you intend to make?
    • Sorry for resurrecting an oldish thread Not much has happened in the past year since the last update. The car did another 1000 miles or so and failed the MOT for the first time in October (failed on tyres which had been advised for a couple of years) In October the car got put up for sale and was removed in November due to no interest, being so close to christmas it was to be expected. The roads were dry in February so I decided to tax it early and get the new tyres fitted.   Fast forward to April, I got someone in to give the car a good clean after sitting for the winter.                                 The car got re-advertised and today (Saturday 3rd May) the car sold. The new owner is planning a GTR conversion at some point and a respray in the same pearl white. It's bitter sweet, it's a shame to have the car sit there for half the year and then only do 1000 miles. The kids are growing too quick and space in the back is getting limited. It's been a great 6.5 years of ownership
