hey guys..

just wondering im about to buy a skyline and just wondering if this car with its mods listed sounds right.

ive seen on other posts that guys are getting up to 350rwhp with stock turbos and internals.

just want to know what you guys think. the dude had it re-dyno'd today and it came out with 310rwhp. the guys at the dyno place said the turbo has been machined and is on its way out. The guy im purchasing it off is chucking in a New T3/T4 turbo with it.. good deal ya all rekon?

Not really sure what you want us to tell you, if the car has everything listed and the engine builder did a good job it sounds good. would cost you a lot more to buy a standard one and mod it yourself. just sonds like it wants some injectors and a bigger turbo and it will make 300kw.

ive seen on other posts that guys are getting up to 350rwhp with stock turbos and internals.

Stock Turbos for a r33 gts25t can't push up to 350rwhp=approximately 262rwkw.

rwhp = rear wheel horse power

rwkw = rear wheel kilowatt.

Your typical STOCK turbo r33 gts25t usually can be pushed to 200rwkw = 267rwhp.

For your reference a complete STOCK standard R33 gts25t usually have around 130-140rwkw = 170-187rwhp.

if the car your buying has 310rwhp thats approximately 232rwkw.

BTW 2rismo getting 355rwhp out of a stock turbo is with the help of 'NOS'! :P

hope that gives you a better understanding.

my 2cents.

    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?  
    • Yes, fair call. I don't have any special love for super/hyper cars but it was impressive to watch the Lambo line up against successive skylines without any problem at all.
