in that case i hope it does otherwise your going to be up for some exhaust manifold mods, as your compressor housing is tight now. wont get anything bigger on.

Going to run the GT35 hard and then swap for something bigger. Either a 42 or a 51R. That is provided it the 35R won't do what I want. If it does, then there will be no need to change it.

the driveability of the 30/40 is excellent, have fitted this turbo to half a dozen r33s, two auto, the majority of these with standard internalls. adrians with the bigger exhaust housing due to the engine mods and use of gas. you be silly to upgrade to anything smaller. I would seriously consider gt42 if it is a auto race car.

all-so finished the pressure side of the oil system, ran hose around radiator and through inline filter on driver-side chassis rail. there is a good 2 meters of -12 hose which eliminates the need for an oil cooler. mounted filter in a bosch fuel pump bracket.

my work is almost done.

is that length of hose going to effect the oil pressure at all?

No and the pump itself has some scope for pressure adjustment even if it did. The pump is considerably more robust and powerful than the stocker.

Man my turbo is going to look tiny as a highmount compared to that.Maybe a GT3082 is on the cards :laugh:

Have you mounted it yet?? You should find it doesn't look tiny, we've had a GT3076R and a GT3582R next to each other - the GT3076R does not look a hell of a lot smaller at all.

2Rismo - considering GT42RS?? Why did you bother going a GT3582R if you had the idea you might go something that big down the track :(

The 35R is a legacy of the last incarnation of the car/engine. I plan on pushing it pretty hard and I think the results will surprise. I'm a long way away from a turbo upgrade.

Haha I know the GT3582Rs are underestimated by many, would love to see one pushed to the limit on an RB25. So long as you go 1.06a/r turbine housing you will possibly blow people away, I've known people to run near 150mph on them.

wtf, if you are only a possibillity of beating people running 150mph, then i think we should pack it up know.

      I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?

      Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?

      So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
