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

In the great ones words "LETS GET REAL"

I agree with all of you its great funn driving the greatest car ever made. Keep up the excellent articles flowin guys I love reading them. "Money generates horsepower, the person driving it kills the RB and sometimes the dream"

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂
