Whats the fuel mileage like driving around town not using boost. Thats the -ONLY- reason i could see for using a turbo that doesn't hit hard until 4,600rpm. By 4,600rpm a stock GTS-T turbo has already been in action for over 2.000rpm.

Smaler turbo's are tuned so they react faster than the mighty power giants.....

Originaly designed by the French to fuel and generate alternat power.

And they will almost work 98% as long as the engine is runnin. We all know that. some of us prefer thinking they only work when in the red and the big pshhhhh goes off.....nice jeahhh.

The GTSt's are more finley tunded than GTR's simple reason. Smaller everything, more degradation on parts over time...

Marketing the R33 ment finding out what comparison between parts and cost of maintenence will relate to people compared to numbers manufacturer releases on the year.

So if you are thinking about economy than talk to Mr Johny I thinlk his moms shoppin troley is fuel efficient enough.

Hey people lets not forget about the laws of physics, the dyno will give you some fancy numbers and the guys running will tunme your car. YES. Walid statement. But how many of you R drivers have taken the circuyit and felt the g's under some unreal conditions with corners and cops on both sides of your rear vision. So please unleas you wana sound like the rest of the pathetic Comodore club nerds

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
