*SEARCHING NOW.. my bad brain dead here**

aaaaaaaages ago i posted a thread about wanting heaps of response and rev, was told an apexi AX5 is the way to go..

so now i have one.. in the garage, sitting around.

at the moment i have

Dual stage boost controller

FMIC

Bov

Stock exhaust to Cat, nothing after cat. (yes not so legal *cough*)

stock clutch

SAFC (will be tuned while/after the turbo is/has been just being fitted)

all suspension has been replaced.

thats bout it i think.

things like injectors, fuel pump, Z32, etc are the things that im NOT sure about ill need

ill be basically taking the car to CRD and going 'here ya go, fix it to go faster :whistling:!'

well not quite, but u get the idea.

Hi mate, fitting the same turbo to my R33

I'd think about upgrading the clutch.

Also to make it a safer tune:

larger Injectors (not sure what GTT stockies are though)

Z32 AFM

Fuel Pump

Fuel pressure regulator

I'd personally go for a split dump/front pipe aswell and a high flow cat as the stock one is rather restrictive even with the stock turbo

yer i'll get a split/dump made for about $100 .. nice and easy :whistling:

the rest, i have no idea.. i have factory coilpacks too, should i get splitfires? ( i have the spluttering issue on/off at that 4.5-5.5k mark sometimes the packs themselves look fine though.. so i thought its the tune, and safc should fix it hopefully...)

  • 3 months later...

Get a new clutch, get bigger 555 or 700cc injectors .. depending how much boost you want to run, a new fuel pump prob a walbro or a tomei one .. 275L/m or whatever it is.

But deff upgrade the fuel system, id also look into a oil cooler*

I'd also hunt down a Power FC or Haltec pc system, you will be able to run the injectors correctly for max responce and max reliablity!

you work fast dont you :S just saw your last post like a week ago bout the turbo :|

The coilpacks may look fine but i bet there shagged, mine were at farked 55000k's

Yeah fix up the exhaust system, and a fuel pump is a definate, + fuel reg, and z32 afm and a PFC at this stage, depend how much you willing to spend,

no need for injectors atm, stock ones with handle fine till about 240 250rkw...

bellmouth dump + hiflow cat + 3" catback pipe + muffler = $600 approx

bosch 040 fuel pump = $200 (SAU) plus fitting including 13.8V direct battery feed

nismo fuel pressure regulator = $170 delivered from Nengun

Z32 afm new = $290 (SAU)

tune of safc = $300

should get you a good 220rwkw with stnd injectors? see how the stnd clutch goes before you replace that perhaps......

good luck

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
