Gday everyone, this is my 1st post.

im seriously thinking of getting a R33 GTR.

What would be needed to get the car into the 11-10's 1/4mile ?

I have a very lame knowedge of skylines and have been a holden fan. Currently owning a VXSS tricked up and it runs a 12.2 on streets. but being 22 i need more. i want to see 11 to 10's and its getting time to sell the VXSS.

How much money would need to be spend on the GTR to see 11's ?

and whats a good imported R33 GT-R worth ? im guessing around 45?

any help would be AWSOME !!

thanks

MELV

A guy on this forum has a R33 gtr running ~10.4sec 1/4 miles

Name is Leewah, give him a PM and ask about the cost. My guess is about another $25-30k after purchasing the car. This would be a quality job that is still drivable

the r33 gtst that they use is up for sale for $40 000 something i think which seems like a lot cheaper way to do it to me, they also said that the car is capable of alot more but there not touching it cause its for sale its 400hp at the wheels its suppost to be the fast 2.5 in the country at the time

if you dont get much out of them try tony rigolies work shop i dont know where they are but the deal with some serious cars and they have a shop in sydney and on the goldy they have an r33 gtst that there trying to get 600hp at the wheels out of with similar upgrades good luck

400hp at the wheels is what I've got now with the NOS kit.

Well with a GTR you first have to decide what target you want. Do you want 11's, or do you want 10's

There is a HUGE difference and cost between the two.

Also a GTS-T is NOT a GTR, so dont compare the two....anybody.

its like saying "my mate bought a torana and did it up for a full cost of $50,000 and it ran 9's", and you spend 50k on a GTR and you get a clean stockish GTR.

If you want a clean GTR, a friend is selling his 33. Pm Leewah, or SIRVROOM.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
