ouch. my brain hurts lol.

Firstly, welcome.

Secondly, the "Forced induction performance" section will help you out a lot as well, probably get a faster reply.

Thirdly, if there's nothing wrong with your PFC and you sort out a new ECU, I'm interested in buying lol

and finally, 17psi out of stock R33 turbo??!!?!?!? f**k me maf sensor won't be your problem soon lol

exactly. the stock turbo becomes a time bomb above 13psi, so if i was you i'd be expecting it to blow any time now. it may last 6 months, it may last a year or it may blow tomoro, but it will blow (unless of course it has been highflowed, then it will be fine).

also at 17psi on the stock turbo you are probably getting out of it's effeciency range. you'd be able to drop it down to 15psi and be making a similar amount of power but be somewhat safer on the turbo (still not ideal though).

as for the ecu, one option is to go a z32 afm. they are the same size as the rb25 one but read in a slightly different resolution, so you will be able to get up around 250 or 260kw from it before it starts to max out.

oh and welcome

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
