That was a standard intake pipe with sleeve. Totally different to a 3inchmetal intake pipe with silicone joiners

Do you have one laying around? I'm interested of doing a back to back dyno testing using a PU .82 high flow. Would be interested to source some for high flow customers if they work, or at least can find out what they support up to.

Completely off the current topic, but is there known compatibility issues with the r33 gtst just jap racing split front/dump pipe fitting on a hi Kai high flowed r33 gtst turbo?

If so what's the issue and how can I get around it?

If the intake pipe sucked shut at full gas would the car go noticeably berserk because it's the equivalent of breathing through a straw instead of it's mouth?

I don't see how a metal intake pipe would make more power than a working rubber intake if they're the same sizes roughly.

What do you mean beserk? The car will be limited to the amount of air it can get throught the collapsed intake pipe. I used to have it and once it sucked shut the power line was just flat. On the road it just felt like a huge flat spot in power. Car still ran fine etc.

The engine completely dies, then it slowly opens up a bit then sucks shut again, basically feels like the engine has been shut off.

I thought the turbo is comming back for a ss1.5 upsize.

The main issues with intake restriction are that it can not supply enough air to the comp wheel, 2ndly that slows down the shaft speed making turbine wheel harder to turn, there for trapping combusted air inside combustion chamber causing detonations.

I'm still waiting for bit more feedbacks from couple of evaluation SS2 units at this stage. Will produce them when I have more solid results. For time been, 250~270rwkws mark use the SS1PU and 270~300rwkws mark use the G3.

There is also a prototype high flow from R33 21U turbo that Im working on and off for the time been. The goal is to duplicate G3's result while stay in factory turbo shells.

This is the best news ive heard in a while! keep up the good work on this idea :)

yeah it got sent back here for some reason??

i cant afford to get my turbo fixed now but when i have some spare cash il send it down again.

hi stao, what was the price on highflowing a set of r33 gtr turbos. want loads of response with around 400awhp

Yes can be done, cost $1700 for both turbos.

Also congratulation to customer whom won Vic hill clamb championship. That we built a custom turbo for his SR20det blue bird.

The JJR pipe is to close to the firewall and burns the Air-conditioning pipe. You get wet feet. The only way i got around it was to cut the pipe, and drill the hole back into it (was melted shut)

I have one on my car at the moment, and it hasn't done anything to my air con as yet I don't think.

I thought there was meant to be a problem with the wastegate not being able to open/close properly on the high flowed r33 gtst turbo because of the bit of metal which splits the flow?

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
