Converting A Turbo R33 To N/a Non Turbo

Hey everyone,

My girlfriend has just bought her dream car (97 R33 Series 2). It is currently turbo but it has to come off because some big gun in the government does not realise that you can speed in any car.

The guy she is getting the car from (Joel from Aussie Car Compliance - TOP bloke real fair prices and real honest) is organising for his mechanics to remove the turbo as soon as we have sourced the needed parts.

I have been told by a few people that it will not run as well as it does now without the turbo. I honestly dont know shit about cars and just want to make sure that everything that is needed to be done - is definately DONE so no damage is done to the car. She does not mind that the car will not be as powerful.

I have been informed by a few mechanics that I need the following parts to convert it to non turbo -

- Manifold

- Dump pipe

- Engine pipe

- Air intake meter pipe

She does not mind that the car will not be as powerful - I just want to make sure its still reliable and stable.

Ive sourced a manifold and an engine pipe to suit, but am still looking for a DUMP PIPE and a AIR INTAKE PIPE. I have called around but nobody seems to have em! I even sunk low enough to call the "mechanics" at unique autosports in castle hill that know less than I do and I literally got a blunt "we wouldnt be interested in stuff like that" reply.

If anyone knows where I can get them from, please let me know !

Thanks in advance,

Chris.

Mate have you considered trading vehicles with someone that currently has a none turbo charged vehicle? You could potentially walk away with a few thousand dollars, and save a skyline having its testacal(s) removed.

      Yes, it will take a fair amount of solution but the sodium citrate + citric acid + detergent is cheap stuff. Use laundry detergent instead of dish soap if you want to reduce the bubbles, also you could just buy sodium citrate and add some citric acid to the mix until you get to a weakly acidic solution if you don't feel like dealing with all the bubbling generated by adding everything together. For a fuel tank you need quite a lot of distilled water but it's probably worth the effort.

      Everyone I know with a90 supra at time attack aren't having issues with 3-5 fast laps so far and one is decent powered one too. Saw a k24 swapped 86 with a 8hp70 and big slicks and aero which had no drama's at QR and Manton Park. I've stuck a 25 row cooler in my setup with 8hp45/50 in the hopes of keeping the oil cool as I plan on some racing next year that 20-30min sessions. I've also geared my car so won't be using 7th and 8th gear too. @Dose Pipe Sutututu just needs to get that samsonas in already and have that tassie guy fit a head and rev it too 11ty thousand rpm.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      My embedded systems thoughts have me sitting with GTS on this. Variation between same phone hardware, should be small. However, the internal "intensity" or "volume" amount that say Google passes to the app, will be quite different, as the underlying hardware will be passing different levels for the same volume to the Google OS. Until the app creator has had each individual phone, and set benchmarks and calibrations for each, the amount of error can be quite huge.   It can even be observed by using different phones, recording the same noise, and then playing it back, they end up soon ding different. A big reason for it, is even the different types of mics used in phones have different responses, and different frequency ranges. Then you need to get into the DSP, and the variations in those, their sample rates which then effect their frequency range, and then the quality of the DSP, and what type of hardware conversion they do to for the ADC within the DSP. Oh, and let's not forget at the low level phones are designed to cutout loud sounds. It's one of the reasons they suck in really loud environments (eg concerts). The louder you yell, the more you'll get cutout too Note DSP is Digital Signal Processor ADC is the analogue to data converter. I don't have any real data on what the variation would truly be, however, chat GPT says in general, their output is typically between +/-2dB to +/-5dB of what you're really measuring. So realistically, anything from 4 to 10dB variation is possible even with the same devices.
