yeah only 7 hey

my astra turbo startard use to run 12.5

have any of you guys got boost controllers and what is a safe boost to run?

JUNR34: nar not yet mate still lookin, im not in any rush tho want to find on that is right for me

Edited by Jaker34

The R34 turbo is said to only be safe for PSI levels between 10-12PSI - some people blew there's at 10, some have been cruising along with 12 without issues.

A boost controller would be handy; a manual one would suffice but if you have the budget for it, go something electronic from Japan :mellow:

There is a high and low boost mode on the R34GTT from what I can tell... I'm pretty sure it's RPM controlled as well or TPS controlled, not sure which.

Low is 5PSI, and High is 7PSI.

your answer lies in what stan said

ive been running mine at 12psi(.85bar) all the time with no worries at all. But i dont thrash the f*ck out of my car either. The people that blow their turbo's probly give it a hard time constantly.

i believe that these cars were made for modifying!!!! :)

as long as you take care of it :D

    • 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.
