u could look at a mid 13 to low 13 u mite be pushing any 12 but it all the driver and a good take off u could hav 2 drivers same car 1 get a 15 1 get a 13 so noone could giv u a good answer but the car should be capable of a mid 13

it is a how to guide but it is the driver. u could get a better time but have more power in a lighter car your next prob is traction. i got a 32 gtst when i ran mine had about 190 rwkw and ran a 13.5 but bad traction launched at to high revs. does the how 2 guide tell u what to launch at because what if 2 drivers do differant launch 1 at 4g and 1 at 7g they both goin to get 13.4. it just doesnt make sense but best way is run it u mite surprise yourself and get a 12 i hope u do. just run it a thew times each launch at diff revs to test it out

lol 40 profile on 17inch rims is only gonna get your mates going "pwoaahh sandy you got no traction down the quater" lol, get some nice street/racing slicks, and then what ever you run will only improve on the launching department, as your traction department will be covered...

when you do end up taking it out, post your time on here. i keep meaning to take mine out, but little things just keep going wrong.

got a boost leak at the moment.

before that it was the rear camber

and before that it was the clutch

and so on and so on.

never anything major, but enough to keep me away from the track.

my younger bro ran a 13.3 with simular mods to you in a r33 with a 2.0s 60 foot time.

If you can drive it hard and launch it well (his tyres were shit so theres no reason why you can better his 60 foot time), theres a good chance for a very low 13 pass. Put slicks on and launch it hard and a high 12 should be on the cards.

I'd say mid 13's should be on the cards at least - From what i remember a few years back when i got a seat in that thing it was mighty quick and had me smiling for a while :happy: BTW, I'm your mate Steve's cousin if you remember.

I'm hoping to tap into the 13's with my car:

stock RB20

+ 3" split dump&front / high-flow cat / 3.5" cat-back

+ FMIC

+ bosch 040 pump

+ APexi power intake

+ remap (boost restrictor/speedcut removed + ignition timing advanced with new fuel map)

160kw atw before remap, was quoted a 10-15kw gain after remap & between 10-12 pound ATM - car running extremely well.

Cheers,

Steve.

got walbro myself. nice and quiet, and also reaches to the bottom of the tank, so can use the full tank of fuel, as oposed to 3/4 of it.

as soon as i find this damn boost leak, will take my car down to the quarter. expecting mid to high 13's....

at the moment replacing the front bushes, so won't be fixing the leak for at least a month or so. budget just does not allow it.

You wont need 230 at all.

I ran 12.9's @ 109mph all day long (lots of practice and i was very consistent back in the day)

And that was with 220rwkw, RB25 in a car over 1400kg (HR31 GTSR)

This was using 225 Simex tyres, nothing special, nothing thick.

R32 is lighter by a reasonable margin, it should be able to do it with 200rwkw.

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching

      Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.

      Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.

      Regardless of neglect or incompetence, fixing either is tedious and annoying. Most of the neglect on my car is definitely rust. I hope I can at least pass inspections later on and they won't fail the car due to slightly corroded hardlines. I was generous with rust converter and wax and it looks ok, most lines in the rear are hard to see properly anyways.  Definitely will test them though to make sure they don't rupture under pressure, in that case the car isn't going anywhere this year.
