my old r33 gtst ran low 13's consistantly with ;

Standard ecu + SAFC2

205 tyres on stock rims

turbo back exhaust (dump/front pipe custom made at Mettams mufflers in Morley, I thermal wrapped it)

standard air box (K&N element)

standard intercooler

10psi ( bleeder valve)

Pineapples (rear cradle bushes)

Light weight flywheel and upgraded clutch

With just these items I can get any decent nik R33 gtst into low 13's or with bigger tyres on the back straight into high 12's. Low 13's without spectacular 60ft times.

Notice the lack of Front mount intercooler.... Not needed to do this, get a good one when you upgrade the turbo and other kit.

That cars dyno after at the time of the low 13 was 175rwkw. It looked stock and was quiet and comfortable.

The JJR integrated split dump pipes are rubbish. They require machining to align the flange plate properly, the flange plates are sometimes not flat (warped).

Just get something from an exhasut place made. Without the split design. And then thermal wrap it.

thanks for ur help rev210 do u knw any good places for dump pipe and so u think with 200 atw a 14 flat is posable

My thoughts are that you need to sheild that pod filter. The pod filter if it has no cold air feed and heat shield, sucks in very hot engine bay air.

Or just get a factory airbox and cold air feed from someone throwing thiers away. Perhaps you can even offer to swap. Keeps the cops out of your face too when you pop the bonnet.

Mettams mufflers in Morely is where I have always gone for my cars. Pat there is a master and his quality work is very cheap indeed.

Mild steel dump pipe to the cat in 3 inch. Shouldn't be too much.

Go grab yourself some pineapples for the rear sub frame. they are only a tad over $100 and you can fit them in your driveway with 15min, a bit of effort and a crowbar. Easier if you have a mate to help out.

The clutch is something to save for if you only have a standard one in there as drag racing and the modest power increase will see it on it's way quickly.

When my car was dyno'd at 190rwhp I ran 13.8. It's pretty easy to do so.

The thing about dyno's is that they are really only a tuning tool. Making car comparisons is not what they are good for. :D

Lorenzo, i think what you should do is race me for pink slips.. doo it, you know u want to :D

im takin mine to Wilkinson soon to get susp set up, good price and they sponsor some of the guys who drift at barbs.

needs to be done as i have ikeya formula lower control arms (which can either be set up for either drift or grip) rolls centers, whiteline sway bars etc etc..

:D:laugh::yes::cheers::banana::happy::mad::P:D :D

Blasphemy

Also if anyone wants some coilovers for their 32gtst my supplier has 1 set left at the price before the dollar dropped, shoot me a pm if anyone is interesed and ill give you prices and stuff but you will have to be really quick before it gets snapped up

    • HyperGear. Just get a high flow of the stocker. Good, reliable, and should bolt on. Yes it will want things like a retune once done, so you need to factor this in to your spend too.
    • Hi. Iam looking for some "cheaper" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO. I do not want "big" power just better reliability than the stock turbo which is "fot now" good but is old and i do not think it has "easy" life. One the Skyline here running some "temu" china Turbo but i dont trust those... Thanks!  
    • Hi guys, Making some space/cleaning up. A whole heap of random OEM R33 GTR parts and other random bits and bobs. I will update this thread as I go. Parts are located in Moorebank NSW 2170.

    • That's kind of what I was getting at saying you'd be here soon regarding length etc being able to add additional restriction.  My assumption (possible donkeys of you and mption) is that the length of hose to an oil cooler, and back, isn't going to be that huge of a loss. Typically you're talking about 1.5m of total length. And so far everyone in our world hasn't had issues with oil not being able to get to a cooler and back, it's more been, how the heck do we get the oil out of the head and back down to the bottom? I'd nearly hazard a guess the biggest issue people have with oil cooling and oil supply, is being able to get the heat out at the cooler itself (not enough air flow, too small of a cooler etc) Also, when people mount them wrong and make really awesome air traps so they've dramatically diminished the cooling capacity.
    • I will rebutt this and the preceding point from Dose....but without doing any calcs to demonstrate anything and without knowing that I am right or wrong. But... The flow capacity of a fluid transfer system is not limited by the smallest orifice or section of conduit in that system, unless it is drastically smaller than the rest of the system. OK, I use the word drastically perhaps with too much emphasis, but let's drill down on what I really mean. The flow capacity of the system is the result of the sum of the restrictions of the entire system. So, to make an extreme example, if you have a network with 3" pipe everywhere (and let's say a total length of only a few metres) and that 12mm ID restriction of the oil filter connection being the obvious restriction, then for any given amount of pressure available, the vast majority of all the pressure drop in the system is going to occur in the 12mm restriction. But.... increase the length of the 3" pipeline to, say 1000m, and suddenly the pipe pressure loss will likely add up to either be in the same order of magnitude, possibly even exceeding that of the 12mm restriction. Now the 12mm restriction starts to matter less. Translate this to the actual engine, actual oil cooler hose sizing, etc etc, and perhaps: The pressure loss caused by flowing through the narrow section (being the 12mm oil filter port, and perhaps any internal engine oil flow pathways associated with it) is a certain number. The pressure loss through, say, -12 hoses out to the cooler and back is negligible, but The pressure loss through -10 hoses out to the cooler, at the exact same length as the above, starts to become a decent fraction of the loss through the 12mm stuff at the filter port. Maybe even it starts to exceed it. I could actually do these calcs if I knew 1) how much oil was actually flowing in the line, 2) gave enough of a f**k to do things that I hate doing for work, voluntarily for a hypothetical discussion. Anyway - I reiterate. It's not the narrowest port that necessarily determines how much it can all flow. It is the sum. A long enough length of seemingly fat enough pipe can still cause more loss than a semmingly dominant small bore restriction.
