I know a lot has already been posted on this..but I would like to get confirmation.

I dont really want to lower my car but I would like to get a bit more dampning ...As I read it..R33 GTR shocks will fit the front and R33 GTST shocks will fit the rear. Has anyone done this? ie retaining the original springs and using good (aftermarket) GTR/GTST shocks.

Cheers.

Yep, the GTR front and GTSt rears will fit, but the shock rates (especially at the back, due to the extra weight of the Stagea) will be completely out of whack.

There's not reason why you can't get Stagea-specific shocks for your car and just set them up to the ride height that suits you. Whether they are Sydneykid's Bilstein shocks or something else is totally up to you, but just make sure that they have suitable damping to make sure that it accounts for the weight of the car itself as well as the extra carrying capacity available. Otherwise, you'll be changing shocks too often as they wear out prematurely.

OP

your an idiot

LOL, go Ian :D

I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume that post was directed at me...Ergo,

You aren't even worth the sustenance that can be scavenged from the rotting bowels of a dead bat in some subterranean abyss. Do your keepers a huge favor: commit suicide by flushing yourself down a toilet, you victim of mis-prescribed medication.

As Ellen Glasgow once remarked: "He knows so little and knows it so fluently."

I'm not done yet, this is way too much fun.

*shrug*

the fact of the matter is, you have nothing to contribute to this (or any other) thread, your lack of knowledge, tact or usefulness as a human being classifies you as a complete and utter oxygen thief and your attempts to justify your arguments prove to me again and again that you are an uneducated, inarticulate waste of resources

Oh, and excuse the f**k out of me for not being "down" with all the latest hip language you young folk of today use, but the fact remains that if you didn't insist on clogging up all the legitimate threads asking legitimate questions with your loud mouthed, bullshit theories then people would probably get useful stuff out of a search, instead of having to wade through pages and pages of you proving to the world exactly how much of a special needs bobble headed moron you actually are.

      Like loud exhausts? You could be a psychopath.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Actually, it is probably pretty legit. I mean, it's still woke feminazi bullshit academia, but you would have to agree that it is very likely that there would be a correlation between wanting a loud exhaust and scoring at the unpleasant end of the scales for dark triad personality traits. The fact that they found it didn't correlate with narcissism and only with psychopathy and sadism definitely shows that the loud exhaust thing is more of a "f**k you" than a "look at me", and I reckon that rings pretty close to most of the dickheads who take it to the extreme. Remember, this is correlation with tendency to be closer to one end of a personality trait scale than the other end. Of course someone who is at the literal opposite end of the psychopathy scale is going to be so considerate of others that they wouldn't even think about wanting to upset anyone with a loud exhaust. So the finding isn't that "you are a psychopath". Just that you score more towards that end of the scale than someone who doesn't like loud exhausts (on average, not necessarily even for specific individuals).

      Blue Smoke from exhaust, RB25DE+T

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Stock R33 boost control, with the exhaust, and FMIC done, will boost creep. There is no tuning around it if it is the factory boost solenoid.   If it has an aftermarket electronic boost controller, the settings/mapping can be altered in it.   Oil could be anything as mentioned, however did it ever do it before you did the turbo swap? How much and how often did you drive the car before the swap?   I'm hinging on too much oil supply, or it's not draining properly.   To check, pull the air outlet off the turbo. Is it full of oil? Drop the exhaust at the turbo, does it appears to be oiled/coked? Now pull turbo and check the exhaust manifold, does it appears oiled and coked the same way?   Secondly, the PCV could even be stuffed / not functioning properly and will cause blowing of blue smoke.

      No "could" about it.
