Yeah gets boring quickly. I have 270rwkw and am trying to resist the temptation to go for 300+.

haha 300+ still gets boring...but then you have to start looking at powering a couple of extra wheels to enjoy it more...i.e. GTR :whistling:

im sitting on that figure...only few months and i want more already

just cant get enough...300+ all the way!

Back to the topic, u'd feel the difference (more as a passenger), but it wont be scarey tbh..

300rwkw in our gtst has a similiar power to weight as a gtr/gts4 pushing 340-350rwkw. :S

you're shitting me? Here I was, thinkin about buying a GTR and running 320awkw

hhmmm......

why so? The extra weight?

Weight it is....

Mafia.. If you want to improve acceleration and remove some lag drop a set of 4.3 diff gears in your r33. Its a noticable improvement over the 4.11 and 4.08's. I've recently went from 4.08 back to 4.3's as I was bitterly dissapointed. All though first gear was a little more usable second+ sucked in comparison.

I 'assumed' the slightly longer gearing would provide a little more load for the turbo resulting in earlier boost and mask the longer gearing. Definitely not so infact nothing of the like. :yes:

The longer gearing made the car feel laggy as it spent more time in the off boost rev range trying to accelerate in to the 'boost zone' lol :)

4.3's FTW. Definitely recommended.

Those with gtr's look at a set of gts4 4.375:1 diff ratio, the r32 gts4 gearbox also runs slightly shorter ratio's in the first couple of gears and by model/part number the same gtr gearbox just different ratio = same strength.

Quite freaked out how much the lower ratio reduces the lag feel.

lol read what you posted - its confusing as hell!

So the 4.3's will make it less laggier?

What sort of cost is involved? Will it be just as strong?

An R200 is an R200. Plenty strong apart from the open wheeling vlsd's once you start to push some decent power through them.

Crown and pinion from an r32 gtst diff, have it setup with your housing and center for ~$200.

Regarding cars that are quick...... The only car that has made me think wow... was cruising along side Jays 450rwkw Cressida. It sounds awesome and looks the business as it accelerates off. Under 400-350rwkw just doesn't seem to look like its going all that quick. :)

I can't comment on darrens 470rwkw rb30 as I haven't seen it in action. :yes:

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.

      Any idea where I can get genuine MAF apart from used ones? I can't find any only for GTRs and unfortunately that price is not in my budget 🤣 I might gap my plugs down and put my splitfires in, they were only in for a year or so before I started the rebuild
