Well I didnt have much luck. With the warmer weather and the stock intercooler I couldnt run 0.8bar of boost effectively. My fastest run of the day netted me the same result from my last day at the drags another 14.8 with the boost turned down to 0.6bar. Time to browse the Trust catalogue for a better intercooler and some sort of new engine management I think. The car was launching much better with the lock kit though, its a bit annoying though as I know the car is quicker because at night when its much colder at 0.8bar the car pulls strongly to 6500rpm, today with 0.8bar I had to keep shifting between 5500 and 6000rpm because the power was tailing off... damn heat! Either that or my car's a lemon :(

I know what you're thinking, and no, its not Myaree Dyno :P

Got it tuned at Barrys Dyno.

adam 32, no need to prove anything, the terminal speed shows the true potential of the car. Besides, 12psi will make you harder to catch at the next cruise :(

rob77, the factory tune on the r33 ecu is junk. Put fuel control at the top of your list, you won't be sorry.

Yup, black r33 stock rims and body, nice 3.25" cat back system with the muffler on a angle and a tip big enough to stick your head in :( The only other mods are a blitz air filter element, apexi twin chamber bov (which I'm thinking of ditching cos I think its causing my problems), blitz dual sbc type s boost controller. I was hoping on at least a low 14, possibly a high 13, but the gremlins re-appeared. My terminal speed was 96.05mph or 154.57kmh at 0.6bar, so with a stronger clutch and harder launch, I dont see why I cant run a low 14 at least.

Adam32 read my post, I run 0.8bar of boost and it's fine at night, the car pulls hard all the way to the 7200rpm limiter, but for some reason today be it heatsoak or something else is ****ed in the car, it was loosing power if I went past 5500rpm. I'm sure if I went out now and took it for a drive, it'd pull fine to 7200rpm. *shrug* beats me, everytime I go to the drags something ****s up.

So I take it the blitz element is in a stock unmodified airbox? Or have you hacked the airbox to include a cold air intake?

The stock airbox is an unbelievably huge restriction in R33 GTS25ts, the GTR design is much better.

Only did 6 runs as I was stupidly consistant, here they are in order:

13.989 @ 167.24

13.112 @ 163.47

13.038 @ 168.41

13.080 @ 164.95

13.073 @ 161.64

13.093 @ 168.41

As Troy said today there was a bee's dick to a 12 for me today, I wont be going back until I get a new clutch and make sure I dont have 50L of fuel onboard like I did today...........and maybe flogg some race rubber off Ken???:( pretty please??

Cheers.

Ben: Yeah man, i think you were too busy liftin the bonnet of your beast in the pit lanes to realise i was runnin around...

    • 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.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
