realistically this thread should have been originally posted in the forced induction thread me thinks.

or maybe even again, not posted at all and maybe the dude that posted this thread should just go see a mechanic or engine builder and sit down with them and talk to them about it. that way they will get a much better idea of what is involved as well as costs involved.

OK, to start with I hope the above figure is a turbo figure cause you will never see that from an n/a motor, I doubt you would see that with nitrous and I have a 26/30 n/a setup in my 31.

Of course it will be a turbo motor lol, sorry should of said that. Probably get it built then put twin GTRS's on it and that should bump up the power to make over 400. Gonna be costly tho :P

I remember reading quite some time ago that the atessa AWD system in the R33 GTS4's is *NOT* the same as that in a GTR... from what I remember reading it was slightly more simplistic in nature... ie. didn't have the full feature set that the GTR's did (sensors and what not). I may be wrong, but I do remember reading a fairly in depth article on it. In contrast, I know the R32 GTS4's is the same as the 32 GTR's...

gts-4, gtr have exact same system no doubt.

bottom line for this thread wont be giving you answers about turbo like a turbo forum, anyone trying to make 300kw+ for a non turbo is going to have to spend the stupidest amount of money on the car and yes making it a gts-t would help if you want to make it a bit of a drifter car but maybe moving the thread would save you the hassle rather than deleting it because you already know its going to have to be engineered if you use any other skyline engine other than a gts-4 one or do the internals either way let the turbo people wave there turbo magic on you.

ok i seeeeeeeeeee. :D

big turbo fixes stuff haha, still you mentioned drift and i doubt the engine will hold up with all that pressure. The money will need to be poured in, in the long run.

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
