HKS it is- 2535

iv always liked the damn hot girls so i might as well apply my rule here too ;)

Im finding this topic very interesting cause i have a 2871r 56trim highflow on my r33, and ive been wondering wether it be worth while tossing the r33standard housing and getting a .86A/R or OP6 housing or just getting a gt3076 and selling mine.

It is very responsive indeed, good push in the back from low revs, great mid range, but runs out of steam after about 5500 - 6000rpm.

I went through the same thing with my 48T GT2871 high flow. Even sourced an OP6 housing. And then went with a 3076.

The torque drop you're experiencing beyond 6000 might have you thinking the car is slow, but I later came to realise mine was anything but slow. It was just fuss-free with heaps down low and mid range, and I had to drive it in its sweet zone to get the best from it.

If the power number doesn't faze you, there might be an economical housing upgrade from the stock R33 to one of Hypergear's 0.63 jobs to fit your cartridge. Check what Stao's comments in this thread have been, and get in touch directly.

Yeah it is quite ideal for a street car really, but you get used to the power and want more hey, so 3076 eventually will be the go..

my bro has a gt2540 (76mm comp, 53exhaust) and that thing is crazy, bit more lag than mine but his mid and top end sounds like its possessed...

hes probably making round 220kw. but has done flat 13's and could break into high 12's... and this is all with less than a bar of boost..

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
