Hey guys, im looking at spending a little bit of money on getting more out of my 95 r33, i currently am running a fmic, stock turbo 14psi, aftermarket alloy radiator, oil cooler, BOV. im unaware of anything else. at my last tune it made 1197.3rwkw. I am looking at somewhere around 240-260 rwkw. Will the stock internal cope with that stress?

Thanks Andrew.

260-270rwkw is generally the acceptable limit for daily power, and long term life of the motor.

Some people have made 300rwkw, however they do not run this power daily on the street for years on end.

Thats just my thoughts on it over the years. And as with all things, totally depends on the tune and state of the motor before you start as to how long it's life could be

Imagine all the knowledgeable people on here that have put the information out for people to read "not wanting to bother" with the same question being asked over and over and over. Lets see, people with the info's time (who have already invested time putting info out there) vs. your time (newb not willing to search). I wonder which one is more important. Nismoid is being exceptionally kind by giving you those numbers and not just locking this thread.

Read the thread.

Actually, nevermind, I'll give you an answer. 734hp. That's what they can take. 734hp exactly. Take my word for it and don't search.

Not what i was after.. Thanks

Well sorry champ, that's how we roll around here.

Self help never did anyone any harm.

People have taken the time to post the info for users to look at - Do them the justice by reading and not being lazy.

      GOT SUM's RB34

      By klutched · Posted

      Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.

      So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.

      Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on

      Just did this job on my 32 with the boost doc kit. was quite simple to fit, hardest part was getting the rubber bungs back on the firewall. does anyone know how the heater will work now without the flap in the bend? Will I just have a heater on 24/7 now?
