My mate recently had his R33 GTST put on the dyno. Ran up 319RWHP..only engine mods are air filter, 3"exhaust from the cat back, front mount and running 1Bar boost. Guys at the workshop say it should be only pushing out around the 260RWHP mark which sounds about right.

I always thought something was weird about his car as my R33 had the same mods plus some extra and still struggled to keep up...

We thought it was a standard turbo and it looks as though it has never been replaced or the heat shielding removed.... any thoughts???? is there an easy way to check what turbo without pulling to much apart??

oh oh Steve remember MrGTST (Bretts) r33..he has a stock turbo and pulls 302rwhp...had you boys wondering if there was any other work done to it!! It was a freak of a car...makes power for no reason!!

Yes Phil but these cars had no sign of anything touched but there has to be something uprated but theres always signs of nuts and bolts with spanner marks and sealers etc and often other upgrades like airpods dumps etc not just a turbo upgrade.Spose the only way we will ever know is when the cars need their Turbos removed or modded..

high power is one thing, safety is another.

any workshop can lean out a car, put timing into it, to get it to make power, but at the end of the day it will be a time bomb.

i personally would sacrific abit of power to have a safety margin with the motor.

just be careful what goes on, i would like to think u would be very upset it your destroy a motor just for some extra power.

also the dyno run could be dodgy, who knows what the inlet temps where.

Its not lean or advanced it made almost the same power as it sat and its on an 06 accredited dyno.Top racing is a currant shootout shop.

The car Wildcat talks of did its power on another Dyno also.

WE may not be even talking the same car ar HIPSI has not said yet.

I dont think the car is stock as i said before but it shows no signs of any work having been done.

As said before time will tell whats in them.

Topracing claim no credit for this car as it already had the power.

I just looked at the file Made 313 and we turned it back to 299 because the Datascan showed 24deg timing at 6500 to 7000rpm and theres a power dip at 6000 and the scan showed only 10deg timing at that point so it really needs an ECU swap.

    • 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? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • 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.
