Like the topic title asks guys, I've just got 2 simple questions.

1. Is the R33 and R34 GT-RS kit the same? I've got an R34 and if I buy the kit which was intended for the R33 it should still bolt up fine since they're both essentially RB25 right?

2. Given I've still got the stock turbo, if I take it out and bolt up the GT-RS using everything from HKS will it go on the same as the standard turbo (apart from the new J-pipe/Hotpipe)? i.e. Will I have to modify my dump exhaust pipe or anything else?

Thanks,

Andy

Won't have to modify dump or exhaust....but on that note, if you haven't put a 3inch front/dump on yet, when you're swapping the turbo is your perfect oportunity to do it. (and it's pretty much a 'must have' for an upgraded turbo)

I've just swapped out mine (R33) for a HKS 2535, i think it would be considered the predecessor of the GT-RS.

Perfect bolt on except i didn't have the lines (which you will)

It will be like playing with lego, grown up style. :closedeyes:

jump on nengun and you can plug your car details in and search for the turbo kit.

Do it twice, once for R33, once for R34 and see if you get the same kit and that should answer your original question.

Cheers. :(

Heres another question though. Can the GT-RS or GT2530 be bolted up using the stock oil/water lines? Or do new ones needed to be made up? :rolleyes:

Nope you need new ones. Both lines are slightly larger threads, you can keep the lines but you need larger connectors going into the turbo, also the oil dump line will not fit as well.

      This sounds like someone who would have owned an R33 in their past... It's okay, I'm 100% picking up what you're putting down Mark.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Just back on what was raised about jacking off the the tow/tie down point on the front of cars. I've used it plenty. I've also watched it on a car where you could see it move the front end of the car. It was like the front end/whole car being tweaked and twisted a bit. I will say, I struggle to find good jacking points on MOST cars. The ones that have good points, I then normally struggle to find a jack tall enough to make the car change height!   One of my go to points for either the jack, or the axel stands though, is either a suspension pickup point, OR a subframe to chassis major bolting point. I actually think its the subframe on my R33 that has a bit of a bend in it, from being jacked in the middle too. However, it could have been one of my many other cars I've had over the years! Or it could also be the from me jacking it up, and the fact the top of the front radiator support isn't there, so it can allow the front of the car to move and bend etc.

      My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.

      Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway

      Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
