hi i have a R33 s2 1998 model i think it has a RB26 in it like the R34's because it was a anaversary edition and the last r33'S made and It's not a GTR and i am wondering is it worth upgrading it because i hate all wheel drive cars, i want to put a HKS T51R turbo in it but i dont know if i would have to get new pistons with stronger piston rings any other sugestions?

Too long and did not read?

R33 1998 GTS-T + HKS T51R = would i need new pistons and rings because it already has a stock turbo?

dont ya love school holidays ;)

no.

to original poster, no, the standard pistons and rings on your factory rb26 fitted gtst is good for 1200hp. why the f**k would you put a single t51 on there though? put twin t51spl's on it. f**k it, put 6 of them on the flamin mongrel. then it'll go fast enough to beat your dads veyron. his white one. not his red one, they go faster. just.

Just curious, does your motor look like this..........

or like this..........

If it's the first one, the whole "2500" label vs. the "RB26" on the front of the timing cover may clue you in. Confusing, I know, mixing all those numbers with letters and what not, but they can actaully be deciphered believe it or not. O yeah, then there is that little blue plate on you fire wall that actually tells you what motor you have in case you didn't notice already while looking past your engine to look at the plate ;)

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
