hey guys,

firstly im new so go easy,

secondly, i dont know much about the RB's

Thirdly, i recieved my R33 from my dead brother, his vision was to get about 300kw, i want to continue his vision

so far the car has an apexi pod, Hybrid intercooler, Apexi powerFC, 3.5" kukimoto turbo back, and am running 12psi, i have 195rwkw atm.

first question: whats the best fuel pump out of the bocsh 255l/h or 280l/h? from what i know the 280l/h needs a custom surge tank (is that the intake plenum? i get confused)

Second question: TURBOS! haha. ok. which turbos will allow this kind of power gain (with supporting mods) and which is best for a circuit racer?

Third question: injectors? what size would be a minimum? and what size is recommended?

Fourth question: internals? will i need to worry about interals for 300kw? if so i guess ill want to gain about 375-400kw simply becuase i have to go through the pain of internals anyway.

Fifth question: anything else im missing?

Sixth: order of instaling? im gonna need about 8 months to get the money.

thanks remember im really lost so go easy, im not the most smartest in this area.

    • Come to Eastwood, you'll get plenty of that 🤣
    • Oof, I will forevermore have those shredded gears in mind whenever someone talks about showing mechanical sympathy towards their car. Thanks for the photos, fascinating stuff!
    • Curious to see how the SpeedTek stuff holds up
    • The holdups last year were drivetrain related. I had the car out right after getting the bearing issue resolved. Third launch and the car didn't move after releasing the clutch. It had sheared all the engagement teeth off the 1st gear.    Thankfully no other damage was done. I set an aftermarket gear beside an OEM gear and found that the engagement teeth on the OEM gear were much larger and better supported. Looking through my bin of spare transmission gears I found that there are two types of tooth on the OEM first gears - the larger tooth and the smaller tooth. It looks like most aftermarket gearset manufacturers base their design on the smaller tooth. OEM large tooth left - Speedtek, OS Giken, etc or OEM small tooth right Decided to give that larger engagement tooth a try. Pressed the ring off an OEM gear and sent it to a transmission manufacturer here in the States. They did their "faceplating" operation with my synchro ring on the Speedtek gear.   I reassembled it, took it back to the track and promptly destroyed the gear itself.  I'll rebuild this and use it as a spare - thankfully just first gear and the countershaft are damaged beyond repair. Definitely disheartening but my welded on engagement tooth ring held up!  Moved to Speedtek's dog engagement design as the gears appear to be much stronger. So far they have taken much more abuse at the track. Also scored a Stillway lockout from the Netherands for super cheap. It's for some other RB transmission so it took a bit of fabrication to fit but honestly a very easy job. I also had to heavily modify the gates as they were very different.   Then for some reason at the last test and tune a silicon coupler below the throttle blew off and took out the radiator and fan. Thankfully it was in the burnout box and not down track. This car is really beating me up - I still haven't made a pass in it. Ran it through the gears many times on the street but it keeps biting me at the track.  Currently in the process of replacing the radiator and remaking the throttle pipe to remove the coupler and use a cast 90 and a vband. I WILL get this thing down the track...
    • Covers most of the above points really. There's a few exceptions but most just see driving as an irritating but necessary task they must complete if they want to get anywhere on time. Also see it as a good time to show their awesome multi-tasking abilities on their mobile and/or doing their makeup.
