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

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
