coil overs to drop hight i lil bit, some nice deep dish rears and shallow dish front rims and tint will make it look nice and tuff. Performance= EBC and some light tuning(e-manage)!

a pair of side skirts to offset the front bar and tinted windows like said before.

i would get yourself a rb25 turbo and swap the actuators way before going for an ebc. ie: use the standard rb20 turbo actuator on the rb25 with a direct vac line fron the plenum side of the intercooler piping. the bit of theroy behind this is that the standard rb20 turbo actuator holds 10psi standard and with a new vac input it will be tops. the money you would use to buy an ebc to give you 20 more kw will nearly buy you an rb25 turbo which will give you 50+ more kw and you can run a 25 turbo on a standard 20 with out suporting mods. a rising rate fuel pressure reg is recomended thoe.

also get a just jap split dump and front pipe or even a gkteck one which is a dump plus a front and cat delete pipe as well. similar prices. that will alow your new turbo to breath happilly.

then enjoy driving your car.

i reckon the cheapest performance $$$ are rb25 turbo, walbro fuel pump, turbotech bleeder, exeedy HD clutch, front mount (which you have) 3inch exhuast (which is has) and safc if you dont want to get any more performance otherwise get a re-tune chip, will net you around 180rwkw, then dump some coilovers in the car, strut braces, and get some lucas brake pads and you will have a good street/track package. as for looks get some side skirts, rear pods, nice set of 17 inch rims

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By Duncan · Posted

      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

      Coolant leak?

      By Duncan · Posted

      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

      Coolant leak?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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?
