From what I have read about R33 GTRs, they run mid to low 13s from factory, so with computer, exhaust, and boost (depending how much), you will probably run mid 12s maybe.

If the boost controller is not turning on when the car is turned on, first thing I would check it the connections for power, earth and accessories. If those 3 are hooked up, then the unit should turn on when you turn the key to accessories, but if the unit turns on, but does not function correctly, that is a different problem.

thank you so much quinny for replying :P is it possible there is a somekind of a switch hidden for the boost control?? is there a need for using the boost controller in a daily driving??? and how would i know if my skyline have a Blow off valve installed???where is it located???, if there is a blow off valve, is there a smoke that comes out when reving it high?? like the R34 in the too fast to furious??? thanks

Depending on what boost controller you are running, i'd asume an avcr from apexi, there is no hidden switch. As far as needing a bost controller for daily driving, you dont need it, running stock boost (7 psi) will get you better fuel usage for day to day use. Your best bet is to get someone who know's about boost controllers to take a look at it... Your car has factory dual blow off valve's installed, they are plumback and shouldn't make a noise and blow out ' smoke ' like 2 fast 2 furioues, as it's illegal.

I ran a 33 GTR ( seriesI, v-spec) at WSID a while ago, she had a power f/c, batmil front pipes, ex-force catback and ebc ( 1 bar boost) she did 12.3 @109 mph.

Stock 33 GTr boost is about 10 psi ( with restrictor in and stock exhaust).

GTRS have 2 recirculating valves, they are on the drivers side inner guard ( if you take the plastic inner gurd off you will see them ).

They dont blow any smoke but if you have pods you can hear them .

okok thanks guys...., here is the picture of my skyline...so, what would i do to make it same with the 2fast2furious...that smoke comes out??? hehe, just want it that way, its nice... :) , actually im still not using my gtr right now because it is still right hand drive....here in the philippines, it need to be left hand drive....and tips??? on what i should be careful of when converting the gtr to left hand drive??? about the electronics???thanks...

im not stupid :)

Well atleast we got that out of the way

It would be quite a big job changing the driving side...i'm having headaches just thinking about it. YOu'd need to find someone who specializes in conversions, i couldnt imagine it would be cheap by any means.

And for smoke you need nos, then run the purge lines to the bonnet.

yep,here right hand drive vehicles is illegal, we used here in converting it to left hand drive, like my honda ek4, just finished converting the other day, i put the skyline on the last...because this is the only first gtr here in our place...and the people who convert haven't work with skyline before...so thats why i want to start it after all my cars are finished so i could work it slowly and surely.....is there any tips guys?? on the electronics.....i hope i will have no problems after converting it....

180_mph, "Rev you engine past redline, hold it there for a while...and chances are smoke will come out from under the bonnet" - is this real?? :) or joke?

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
