I am stoaked!! Ran this with a full exhaust.

Cannot wait to get some decent tyres and change the suspension and go back! After this run I drove the car back to Newcastle and it only used a quarter of a tank in 150ks lol

Benm was lookin at my time slips and said "i think this setup now is good for a 11.1"

What a guess mate :P well done. (waits for the its no guess rant lol)

The setup is good I believe for 10.8's however based on the timeslips you had done last night I said you had an 11.1sec in it which yup you did.

You just need another set of MT's and more practice on launching because your 60's are shocking (but 60's get more difficult with more power and a more complex setup as DirtGarage and 2rismo have discovered).

Forget about removing your cat, won't make any difference if it's a decent enough cat to begin with. Forget about constantly adjusting your tune and boost etc just set it all up to what its capable of and go practice with an identical setup until you crack that 10.

Then you get kicked out due to no rollcage and get to sit around on weekends wondering what use you have for a 380kw skyline :thumbsup:

Using no cat is definately an advantage, i had a high-flow 3" cat (new) and made an extra 20RWKW without the cat.... Looking through the middle of any cat converter it is pretty simple science to figure out they wont flow as good as a bit of hollow pipe.

    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
