I bought a cheepy, $350 ,that had a few problems with it (compressor wheel was eroded and exhaust housing was badly cracked) took it to per4manz turbos and cost about $600 to fit new compressor wheel and machine out second hand stock exhaust housing and new seals. bought some gaskets and fitted it myself , a easy job if everything comes apart ok. a bit more laggy than the stock one but heaps more pull when it gets going. went from 290rwhp at 12psi to 307rwhp at 11psi. aiming for about 350-360 at 17psi when injectors and ecu are fitted.

soo pal do you think that if i go with the $350 i will hav problems with ...

thanks for all the info its really good ..

if any1 has got a hi-flow for sale let me now ..... and if you hav got a r33 with same mods as me let me no power adn how much ti costs ..

thanks guys this forum is really good :)0

if you dont know the history of the turbo it's worth the extra coin to get it checked out before you buy it, and rebuilt if needed(making sure it is worth it first). not worth sticking it in and it popping on you. i put mine in just for seals and machining which was around 300 bux but due to the compressor wheel being stuffed, that put another $300 on it.

soo ppl is there any1 out there with a r33 that has a hi-flo .. wat boost are you on adn wat mods do you hav ...

on my car i hav a turbo back zorst , pod , cooler , fuel pump, and will be installing safc soon ... if i get a hi-flo turbo wat boost do you think will be safe for my car and would any1 know wat sort of hp ill be getting ..

thanks guys evry1 has helpd alot ...

230-240rwkw @ 16-18psi.

It's not so much "safe" boost levels as opposed to having a "safe" tune which will keep your engine alive.

Best (and safest) gains will be had with a proper ECU though. Probably going to max your airflow meter and not sure how an SAFC will go tuning past the AFM limits..

may get a bit more depending on turbo, i got 229rwkw at 11 psi with a safc2, hoping for 260 rwkw at 16-17 psi with injectors and full ecu

Yours must be a similar size to the hiflow on my stag then, 240awkw @ 12psi seems to be a bit more than normal 33 hiflows (mine is a hiflowed neo turbo so bigger exhaust housing). Some new injectors and ~18psi I'd hope to see ~280awkw.

mm not soo bad :) .... cant wait to get my car back on the road ...

duz any1 also know how much it costs to get the safc installed and tuned ...

i got safc1 is that crap or would itn help me a lil ....

and has any1 got a hi-flo for sale for a r33

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
