Thats true lol, my friend was telling me about some thing about winggate or some thing similar if u know what i mean, that it sapposed to be big as a 50cent Piece but its bigger than that so he assumed its a big turbo,

but who cares like you siad and my girlfriend lol, its not how big it is, its how you use it, lol so true :ninja:

When i drove this car, i took it to 110 in second gear and blew the doors of this HOLDEN LOL HAHAHAHA, could it be stock turbo and forged pistons?? i know the 4" to 3" Blitz exhaust system got to do with it as well, what you think???

A standard skyline can do 107kmh before it hits the rev limiter in 2nd gear from memory.

What does forged pistons have to do with it?

This post surely can't be serious.

ohok i didint know that! i am new so please no offending comments. i dont know much about skylines atm.

Can anyone say, if forged piston play apart in anything for the turbo ??? example engine can handle the boost so on?

Turn your baseball cap around so the peak is at the front. sit back and start reading. There are rheams of good info here. Blowing off commodores wont impress anybody. There are cars on here that can blow about anything on the damn planet off.

a stock or near stock skyline is only fast compared to stock or standard geminis, lasers etc. I should Know, I have one but thanks to the wealth of knowledge available through this forum I am in the throes of putting together a nice quick ride and I will only buy my bits once.

I feel for the poor buggers who did it without the assistance of these boards and made expensive mistake after expensive mistake.

If you have 66 posts to your name, I would say you ask way too much without reading.

Your answer is on a stock turbo you would never need forged internals, your turbo would blow before your engine if boosted too high.

Safe levels for boosting are around 12 psi on the standard r33 turbo, provided you have a sufficient intercooler, any higher and you run the risk of your turbo going bang.

Ok answered question yes it is stock, The only differences is the revisions in them, Usually the Series 2 and Series 1 different wheels on them, Hope that answered your question

Thanks guys this is all really really good help i am sure to read about more and find out how i can tune my car, but first i will have to ride it abit befor i make any modifications to the engine and learn more about my car, i got more pictures of my car in cosmetics section, if you all would like to see the body what i have done to it.

Thanks all my quiestions have been answerd :ninja::D:D

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
