Hi guys,

Ive been busy grabing up goodies for my 33 GTS-t and will be looking at getting a tune within the next month or so. Is there anything that really stands out you would recomend getting upgraded before the tune that i havnt covered.

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:

Edited by Keeffy

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....

Coilpacks huh thanks for the heads up, looks like i have a little more time up my sleeve, gogin to wait till hypergears bigger rear highflow turbo is in stock inless i can find a cheap r34 turbo op6 rear housing haha :D

Thanks agian guys keep them coming.

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
