Hi all,

I have recently purchased an 1997 r33 gtst and was wondering what the standard turbo on it was? I have read mixed opinions and no one really seems to know.. Also, I am also wondering what is a good Bolt-On turbo (based on others experiences and/or what they have read) to the RB25 in order to get good low end response.. (ie for drifting).

Any replies would be greatly appreciated..

Thanks Guys..

Alot of ppl recommend the gcg highflow upgrade if you want 220-250rwkw with similar spooling time to the standard turbo. no need for external gates\new manifolds\new oil & water lines which is always a plus i guess.

I THINK IF THEY ARE THE SAME RATED POWER MOST LIKLY THEY WOULD BECAUSE OF THE HOUSING SIZE IS DIFFERENT NOT JUST COMPRESSOR WHEELS AND TURBINE WHEELS. BUT NENGUN SEAMS TO BE THE BEST FOR TURBOS , I AM LOOKING AT A GT-RS , THE 2535 ISNT MUCH BIGGER THAN STOCK 2540 IS WHAT YOU REALISTLY WHAT , ONCE AGAIN YOU MUST HAVE A TARGET POWER IN MIND.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
