Hi all,

Just after a bit of advice, The car is a GTR R33 Skyline.

The items that are fitted is

N1 Turbos

exhaust - Just fap front pipe, highflow metal cat and cat back Kakimoto Regu 06&R.

Blitz SUS Pods

Trust FMIC

Have bought ready to install....

Greddy profec 2

Tomei Cam gears...

and

Power FC and controller

Standered fuel pump, injectors etc etc

Should i change the fuel pump? or injectors? Will the stock GTR items be ok? If need to be changed what would surfice?

Should i look at adding anything??? I want to do as much as i can before the tune so i know it'll all be right.

Just wondering what COULD be expected from this set up??

Thanks

You need both before installing the PowerFC or you'll be wasting your time and money tuning it. You'll max out the injectors before making any meaningful power and the workshop will most likely tell you what everyones told you already.

upgrade your fuel system....

Injectors and fuel pump will go to about 270kw - people say 300kw but it never makes it to there as the are old and tired

I would personally go some bigger injectors and also a new fuel pump - NISMO/TOMEI etc

You've come this far so you might as well put everything on at once and get it all tuned together otherwise you would be just wasting money going back later for more boost + injectors & fuel pump

Yes - Although the 040 might require you to modify the cradle to make it fit - had to cut the bottom of the cradle off in my GTST

TOMEI pumps go in way easier - use the stock fittings/mountings etc and come with new seal and shit

Yes - injectors are piss easy in GTR

there is a DIY somewhere as well

Also with the fuel pumps, all the nismo 276L/H, HKS 280L/H Tomei etc etc all around the same price etc So they all around the same??? or are any better than others??

you might get away with one of those up 350rwkw maybe..yeah yeah I know heaps of ppl are making that on standard pumps blah blah blah...its about how much power you want know and in the end run, sure you can use it as a lift pump in the next upgrade but then that means another tune and more $$$ wasted...just do it rite the first time and be done with it, run new fuel lines like 3/8" lines again ppl say standard is fine but think 3/8" or 10mm is 20% bigger in size than standard...

At the moment greenline has a special on SARD injectors, so i was thinking some 700cc. Will they do the job?? As there the same price as the 660cc ones

Nismo and HKS are better pumps than Tomei. A few ppl have said Tomei's lose voltage at high RPM and the engine leans out.

GET the pump and injectors. As soon as i cranked the boost (from stock to 12psi) the pump started to die.

Pump change is a DIY job, i'm not a mechanic and i got the old pump out easy. Injectors give the DIY sectin a read.

Get injectors that suit what you need from them. No use getting 1,000,000cc's when i.e. 660cc will suffice.

Don't put a junky Bosche 040 in your GTR if you want to make good decent power and reliably.

Get a Nismo 275lph @ 72psi pump. It will fit it like a glove and require no modifications. Oh, and you won't have pickup issues either.

excellent thanks guys thats the info i was after!!

Glad there both a DIY job, will search for the info...

Ill get a price on the nismo 275lph and the sard 700cc injectors. cheers guys.

    • Hello, just just bought an 1999 enr34 with a stock rb25neo and I'm looking to upgrade the engine to 500whp I know some basic things but wondering if there are things I'll need to do to upgrade the stock block and all the bits and pieces to achieve this.
    • Thanks everyone for the replies and suggestions. Got the seats out (hoping I could find some existing grommets but no such luck). By tapping and measuring etc. I could figure out where I could drill through if needed. But first I borrowed an inspection camera and managed to go through factory holes in the chassis rail and could see that the captive nut was holding steady which is why it could retighten. So it was indeed a stripped section of thread, so I applied downforce by levering the bolt head with a screwdriver and went slowly back and forth until it came out. Camera helped a lot cos I could monitor that the captive nut was holding tight. Now I just have one very seized main subframe nut to tackle 😅
    • BOVs do have a purpose, if you ever log pressure before and after the throttle body, you will see a spike pre throttle on lift off from a WOT condition. Enough to bend throttle blades / damage e-throttle motors or simple assist in blowing off cooler pipes. FWIW, the above on really applies to those running at least 2 bar of boost. OP shouldn't have an issue, on the other hand, here are some videos of my shit box over a decade ago with some succulent dose with the airbox on and off. That shit box is unrecognisable these days 🫠    
    • I've tried all different combinations of BOVs/ no BOV and stock bypass valves over the years, on gear changes the stock bypass valve seems to get the car back on boost quicker because in part the turbos wheel speed isn't being slowed down by reversion, although they have issues holding boost much over the stock setting. Most aftermarket BOVs you can adjust the spring, tighter will make it open later and close sooner, but in my experience it'll cause a bit of flutter at low load/rpm anyway. I've also got some input into this whole no bov causing turbo wear, never had an issue on any on my turbos HOWEVER, I got my R33 GTST with 200k kms on it, with from what I can see still has the original turbo, no lateral shaft play but has about 4-5mm of play in and out which to me seems like a worn thrust bearing from years (100-150k kms?) of turbo flutter running no bov, so maybe there is some truth to it in the long run. But that'll never stop me loving the Stutututu while I have the car.   OP just wants to know if he can run a atmo vented BOV with no major issues and the answer is YES, plenty of people do it, there's no harm in installing it and seeing how it runs before spending $$$ on an aftermarket ecu, last time I bought a Nistune it was $2400 for install and a tune , unsure of todays prices but you get me. Crazy money to spend just to fix the minor inconvenience of stalling that can be overcome by letting the revs come down to near idle before putting the clutch in or a little bit of throttle to avoid it. You're better off leaving the ecu and tune for after a bigger turbo/injectors have been installed to take full advantage of the tune and get your moneys worth.   Let OP have his Whoosh sound without trying to break his bank haha
    • I see you missed the rest of the conversation where they have benefits, but nothing to do with avoiding breaking turbos, which is what the aftermarket BOV made all the fan boys, tuners, and modders believe was the only purpose for them...
