Hi Guys,

i just bought my second r33 about amonth ago, i no longer have the first one,

anyway i thought it would be good if i could get your feed back and tell me what you guys think or what i should do next and what is safe for my car,

someone told me the turbo is a gtrs turbo and someone else told me its not all tho its a ballbearing turbo but

not a gtrs, is got hybrid front mount and HKS EVC, am runing on 1.1bars and it gave me 252kw at the last tuning i did, so am assuming the car is got stock everything i mean as in, shafts, cam gears, coils, injectors, i think the sparksplugs are gapped otherwise i would have back firing like hell but i dont. i bought it from an importer who dont know much about what the car is got.

the car is a 97 ser II, doing 72Kms

so what you guys think is this safe or should i change a few things,

if you need more info about the car let me know

Thankx in advance

Sorry guys am still new to this,

is got an F-Con-V Pro, 3" from cat-back and 2" or 2.5" from turbo to cat

standard fuel pump

standard injectors alltho they r purple in colour, thats what the tuner told me

am assuming the turbo is a Garret GT860rs, is that a ballbearing turbo..?

i've just tuned the car 2 weeks ago it was heaps rich b4, but now its all good, the tuner said its all good just dnt boost it more then 1.1bars, i dont want more then 250kw atm, i hardly use it anyway

so what you think anything else needs to be done..?

so it does. you might expect a bit more, but it sounds about right to me.

i just got 233rwkw from a t3/4, motec, 15psi, bigger fuel system (everything), full 3" exhaust, fmic.

as long as your fuel system is up to it, sounds like a pretty sweet package. you might want to do a surge tank setup.

he must have a bigger fuel pump to be getting 250rwkw+ out of it.. the stock fuel pump shouldnt be pushed for more then 240rwkw.. im getting 232rwkw with GT2530, SAFCII, 3" split turbo back, custom manifold, POD @ 16psi and my stock fuel pump was starting to max out..

[quote name='slip' surge tank setup.

surge tank setup..?

Is it worth contacting the previous owner mate maybe he knows if it were me id want to know all the details. it say it would have to have after market injectors, fuel pump and posibly afm.

I bought it from an importer first driver in Aus

my brain must be programmed to ignore it when i read it i think that lowly of them :)

Sorry i did edit the post after your first comment

if you say so, because it actually gave me 262rwks on 1.2 bars and the tuner said lets leave it on 1.1 and 252Rwkw, just to be safe,

When i boost it a cloud of black smoke come out, so am assuming because is got stock injectors and stock fuel pumb they are working at 100% 110% to produce that power,,..? could be possible..

Thankx for your comments so far guys

a typical surge tank setup would be your standard fuel pump pumping fuel into a mini tank in the boot, and then a higher flowing aftermarket fuel pump sending the fuel to the fuel rail/injectors. This way theres always fuel available in that little tank, the stock pump just keeps it topped up, and the big pump gives you enough flow to safely make that power. youll be able to find heaps of pics if you do a google search, or look in "time for na power, the wait is over" thread in the NA performance section on this site.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
