id go with whatever gives me the most torque and if im not wrong the 25/30 comes 1st in this department followed by the 25det.

is that turbotech bleedvalve your using the same one as what is/was being sold on these forums? they work an absolute treat. alot better then my ebc, suprisingly.

yeah prob 25/30 but i love the gtr engine torques good but i still want ti to rev out just a little bit... not like a rb30et.

anyways yeah the turbotech it is works a treat

The RB30 does rev (refer to Bu5ters) BUT you need to run a nice big turbo and nice manifold otherwise you will pretty much always make your peak power between 5000-5500rpm. :woot:

Sky30's is a prime example of this. Huge GT35R turbo yet it still only makes its peak around 5500rpm, he dropped 260duration cams in it and made ZERO difference to where peak power is made. An exhaust manifold that can handle the flow (rather than the stock log item) is needed, sure you can dial in more boost to make more power but the peak rpm power is only going to become shorter and shorter.

Have any of you seen silloute88's 3rd gear burnouts? If that aint reving what is... :thanks:

That is making slightly approx 230rwkw I think it was on 12psi.. Would have to double check that, he said it pulls ard all the way to 7500rpm.

BUT he is running a nice turbo and manifold setup.

Then if you consider flicking it past 7000-7500rpm you want to make sure you have a proengines oil pump drive crank collar fitted and possibly an ATI balancer.

But this is the same for an r32 RB26 also. If you want to rev it and not break oil pumps you need either the crank collar or an R33 gtr crank.

yeah ur right ive seen 88silos burnouts marks a big part of r31club aswell. lol

im happy to rev up to 7. all in the future the main thing was that i was happy with my result on 1bar and that it could make alot more with boost raised to whatever is safe

car would weigh 1400 tops as ive been trying to save weight whereva possible... removed hicas + abs + alot of other crap... im trying to get it to 1300 ill have to weigh it

i hold my car in high regard as even though i know r31s arent everyones cup of tea i am an enthusiast and i paid alot for this car over a r33 and over importing and complying a 32gtr.

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
