Dude, you do know that Carbon Monoxide is an odourless, colourless gas which can make u pass out and die if you are in a closed off garage and start your engine and leave it running. The cat filters out that air and converts it into a less harmfull gas, hence why they are a restriction but an environmental nesesity. Hi flow cat (good one) will do the job just as well... you wont get ur flames tho.

lol, i dont care what specs say, every R33 ive been in and my mates have been in have been extremely dissapointed with its guts and have lost to several R32's. Maybe u r33 drivers just dont know how to drive ur cars :laugh: but even the mildly modified ones dont really pull that hard IMO.

the RB25 + gearbox combination is alot better than the RB20 + gearbox combo, but the R33's are too heavy.

thats why i went the r32 over the r33.

I only have a R33 GTST with just a few small modes but took on a R32 at 5 lights and raped it every time. Not bagging 32's cos I like them but just sayin doesn't matter if you beat a few, you won't beat them all

I'd vote for the R33, doesn't look like your budget would cover a GT-R... unfortunately!

Just for interest's sake how much was the guy asking for the GT-R you checked out?

James, original poster has bought an R33.

YEP BOUGHT A R33 GTST SERIES 2! STOKED WID IT.

I LOOKED AT 3 R32 GTRS ONE WAS $22000, ANOTHER WAS $19,000 AND ONE WAS $26,000 AND THE ONE FOR $22,000 LOOKED AND RAN THE BEST BY FAR!

my mates R33 got owned by a pretty much stock CA 180sx from a rolling start, no bullshit apparently they pulled off evenly from 40ks and the CA slowly pulled away from the R33. i was pretty skeptical, but apparently its no bs.

ive had one do that to me also they can run like 15psi or sumthing crazey and there a lighter car

my mates Mx6 turbo pulls from me when he hits boost from stand still but he still cant beat my launches :P

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
