yes i have thought about the gearbox and drive train. ill be going with a extreme triple plate clutch + flywheel to match.

due to the boost being progressive and not aggressive like a turbo, it dosent put as much stress on it, and there fore will actually be able to handle the power, aslong as i am not being stupid and driving it crazly hard, like you would on the track for example.

with a good clutch you're more likely to smash the box i think! but are you going for a lightweight flywheel? i'm not sure about supchargers but going lightweight on a turbo is ok because it's got the top end to pull it through the rev range, but a lightweight flywheel on a n/a is not a good idea. i have experienced it and it looses speed going up hills :wacko:

You'll want an upgraded gearset/gearbox probably, as well as a diff and possibly tougher tailshaft ;P

-D

ok i might sound a little bit rude here but i have spoken to the proffessionals when it comes to this stuff and they have told me what to upgrade etc especially when it comes to the gearbox and what not so i dont need anyone telling me what i need to get done lol ive sorted it all out :wacko:

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
