maybe... but if you want big power out of a nissan.... it's forged piston and rebuilt internals time anyway...

I paid $100 for the T25 Turbo (for silvia remember)

$100 for manifold

$200 in oil lines. intercooler piping and miscilanious gear...

for $400 it's really really cheap....

don't be scared do the work yourself... especially if you can drive your girls car...

it actually gives you an attachment to your car... you built it and it really does give you satisfaction when driving it that you have built it yourself...

I understand the whole just buy a turbo car though... I depends what you want... mine is just a little added boost until I rebuild with forged pistons... 30/37 and custom manifolds...

should be fun... it will still be with the NA motor... just the only thing that doesn't like the boost is the NA pistons.... other than that the motor is virtually identical...

the oil squirters I hear you all say... how many 1000Hp V8's have crank case oil squirters... I've already looked into it and done the calcs(well my mechanical Engineer father did.) and he reckons that sure they are cool but you don't need them....

anyway dudes have fun just remember.... make a plan research and do it cheap.... it's the Garage Spank Moto......

Another thing will insurance b about the same as a gts-t?

Thanx

it will definately cost more for getting a half cut (i just bought a rear end so i could have rear gtst diff, hubs, breaks and 5 stud :()

with insurance for some reason the car is insured under my name (didnt know) 3rd party (i knew this but thought under my name) as a GTST!

so all im gonna do is say "my engine blew coz it was running bad, so i found a good one and put it in and its fine now heres the engine number"

and yeah :D

Hey all, at school and the PC's are slow as!

I was told yesterday to go 2.25" on my exhaust? 2 people from Sub Zero told me and i dont know what to think?

most of you guys have 2.5" am i right?

im also thinkong of cold air induction and extractors? good idea?

anyway g2g, byes all :burnout:

PS: Hey boxhead, when you get ya new ride you betta still be on this thread!

if you get a 2.5" then make sure you get a good resonator and muffler that takes out the drone. else it will drone and annoy you!

personally, next time around i'd get a 2.25", i think its a bit more responsive with a 2.25".

guys my car might be for sale soon! new job means new car! yay!

i went ahead and got those rims that were on a silvia.

they are 16x7 front and 16x8 rear, and the offset on both is 32mm. They fit perfectly with no rubbing at all on full lock, and no rim hanging out of the gaurd.

I therefore conclude that the correct offset for 16" rims to fit a non turbo R33 GTS is 32mm

Neogt25: i would go with 2.25" piping. If you want 2.5" piping make sure you get at least one resonator and use a good quality muffler (as turtle said). I have 2.5" piping with 2 resonators and a quality muffler (HKS system) and i still get a bit of drone from 2-3k rpm. hope this helps.

well i sold my n/a engine today for 800 without the box :D :D

it is going to be used for an rb25/30deTT buildup going into a vl. the person who bought it had his mate with him who has a rb26/30dett in his own vl

good to see my engine will be contributing to something special

to bad in a vl but lol :D

ARGH CANT WAIT TIL I HAVE MY CAR BACK!

    • 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. 😂
