yeah, yeah, yeah....tell everyone the truth!!!

Its that big juicy kiss you gave me at the airport :worship:

haha yeah......... ;) :laughing-smiley-014:

Any1 put in an oil catch can before?

what did you guys use to block the holes?

i read to use some threaded plugs?

any1? cheers

We have used "Door Stops" (thats what they look like) with hose clamps around them..you can get them at supercheap, clark rubber pretty sure :P

yeah pretty much might have to re-pin one of the sensors plugs but there a little cheaper for R33 gtr than R32 gtr :D

cool cheers man

JDM Yo! at least if the police cant read it tell them your car is the biggest tyre size

Morning Maz ;)

I am starting to feel better :w00t:

i didnt block any of the holes, i just ran the catch can in between the passenger side rocker cover and afm pipe

yeh i was reading up on the 5 million plumbing set ups for the catch can and sydneykid recons on the GTR its best to run the 2 hoses from the top to pipes on top of the rockets covers. best breathing setup apparently. but yeh your way would make things easier :P

Sinful - yeh im hoping 1 size fits all lol. ill have to try and measure the holes i need to plug ;)

^^ non sexual :S

i just bought a 040 bosch pump to put in my GTR!!! yay then just found out its not much of an upgrade :worship: i couldnt get the search engine on SAU to work so i was flying blind if you will.

The search button is working now...It's an alright upgrade (I havent upgrdaed mine yet) are you getting injectors to go with it? What power output are you going for? Do you know what teh GTR puts out now??

Mine with nothing done to it made 206kws at the rears at dyno day last year :P

link catch can

Another link

thanks jess :P

im pretty sure on its tune (about 10-11psi boost) ben said he rekons close to 210 maybe more, bens mechanic said it picks up faster than stock GTRs :worship:

nah i dont have new injectors yet, i was going to get 600cc and a fuel rail all in the 1 hit? thoughts?

i want about 250-270kw eventually, i wanna see how much i can get with out swapping out the turbos but want to eventually, maybe after my GTS-t sells.

what are my options jess?

yeah 210 sounds about right ;) Have you got an aftermarket ecu?

Fuel rail up to you , dont really need it :worship: Injectors yep 600cc would be fine..You wouldnt really need injectors until later either cause Jay and I are both running standard injectors still in our GTR's and getting the same power...

I have 300kws and didnt take me many mods to get there and that sort of power is lots of fun! The power FC was the main component that helped me get there!

Hmm do you know what turbos you have now? Mine are standard but pretty sure are steel wheeled so handling 1bar well

the ecu has got a mines sticker on the ECU so im pretty sure itll have a different fuel map, and yeh its not running stock boost about 10-11 is my guess :P

Oh that's right you told me at villies :worship: sorry!

My 2 cents: I would be worried about the ceramic turbos letting go (if they are ceramic)...So I would go turbo's first and then getting injectors, cams and stuff later and can up the boost and get more power out of it..

I only say that cause I have standard steel wheel turbos and have put the boost up to 1bar and getting 300 out of it with stock internals and minor mods like cam gears, catch can set up..I also love responsive turbos so have kept them on ans waiting for them to fail so can do next upgrage which will be going up to 350kws going garret turbos 2860 -5, injectors, bigger fuel pump (walbro) and drop in PonCams.

I dare say that the stock rb26 turbos can handle 10-11 psi, but its always better to be safe than to be sorry i guess.

Chad is still waiting for the turbos Steve!

Damo,

What turbos are you talking about?

Yeah the stock turbos can handle it but I just dont trust ceramic :worship: plus never know how long they have been on there for and what sort of life they have had??

can someone maybe point me in the right direction for info on the gtr turbo's??? ive got a set of 33 gtr ones in the shed and was lookin at having some work done to them and chuck em on with a list of other mods, or would i be better buying some HKS numbers???

**edit: ive come from the world of carbies so go easy lol

Edited by rhys5169

So turbos first hey? how bad are the stock GTR turbos? in the way of letting go? how can i get the steel wheel 1's? is there a way to do a conversion?

what about dumps and front? do that when i get new turbos?

*edit*

bens mechanical pulled the turbos off not too many kms ago to have a look and they are in good nick ;)

Turbo Spec sheet

Google the part numbers on the turbo should be able to find out what they are..Or look on my spec sheet in the link...

To revamp them cost just as much to buy new...If in ok condition like no shaft play or noisey when spinning the inlet wheel chuck them up for sale and see what happens..But most are in the market for steel wheel turbos these days as the safer way to go ;)

i was told the 33 gtr turbo's had steel wheels??? (they came free with my car anyways).......

i just dont trust the ceramic so always looking for a way to avoid leaving them on there

There not bad just limited to what you can do with them..Steel wheel are everywhere only stock R32, R33 and R34 had cermaic turbos all the rest on teh market are steel wheel now :) Its expensive to get them steel wheeled! But it is an option you can do!

Oh yep definately reccomend aftermarket dumps and front pipes...But dumps are a pain in teh arse to do so best to do it when you going to do turbo as well LOL..Not winning are we ! ;)

Check the numbers on the turbo..but could be N1 spec or have been steel wheel in standard housing in japan like mine ;)

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
