Car Stands at the moment

1996 R33 GTS-t Series 2, 91,xxxkms

3" Turbo Back exhaust

CoolingPro Return Flow FMIC

Bosch Intank Highflow fuelpump (unknown HP)

Apexi Power Intake Pod Filter with Alloy Intake pipe

600cc rb25det highflow injectors (yet to arrive)

Apexi Power FC (will be installed with tune)

GReddy Profec B spec II EBC (will be installed with tune)

Hypergear 450hp T3x Highflow Turbo (will be purchasing shortly and tune will be conducted after run in)

If there is anything you feel i shoudl take a look at before doing the une that woudl save some extra work later please let me know :) Thanks for any helps guys i appreciate your experience and expertise :thumbsup:

I would say, cold airbox with cold air feed.. but seeing as you have the Blitz Style return flow, id say, stock airbox and a decent panel filter :thumbsup:, rather than the Pod.

But thats just me.. and plenty of others agree.

This part about the turbo

"will be purchasing shortly and tune will be conducted after run in"

What run in are you talking about?

You have a fresh motor?

Nice mod list, turbo IMO lets it down a little.

Also find out 110% what the fuel pump is before you start, saves hassle later

Gotrice - Thanks yeh i have been trying to think of a way to make a cold air intake for the pod without cutting holes, so far jsut using standard "snorkle" to funel air to the pod may modify airbox later.

R31Nismob - No motor is not fresh but the turbo will be built and need a run in 1000k ish before the oil flows properly then gets a dyno tune.

I know the trubo lets it down a little but it seems great value for money and does save any hassle on upgrading manifolds and the such and helps keep things looking standardish haha

As long as i end up with over 200rwks il be satifyed for now :thumbsup:

The airbox would probly have to be fairly well sealed for the snorkle to achieve alot. The way i see it, the stock box sucks air through it because it has no choice, but an unsealed cold airbox wouldnt be as efficient because its clearly going to suck air from the easiest location.

Oh, and listen to R31Nismoid.. he knows what hes on about!

Thanks guys im jsut going of what hypergear has informed me and they have been making these turbos for quite some time.

"As for the run in, The bearings needs to wear in about 1 thou to allow more oil flow"

hey dude, good mods, yes the turbo is decent bang for buck... im running one now at bout 15psi-17psi.... they have pretty good torque.... i got a little over 400 on status's dyno....

why not spend ~$200ish more and get a z32 to finish off... because i imagine in ur current setup the afm will be ur limiter.... get that and u'll be @ about 230rwkw... without it, probably 200ish because the afm wont be able to handle it....

gl with it....

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
