Hmmmm shall I go eat my hat now???? what cam's and exhaust mani you guys running to get spooling that much quicker. I know mine is not 100% finished but I wouldn't have thought you could get it on the boil 1k rpm earlier. But obviously you can.

4" intake pipe, 4" dump pipe, ETM steam pipe manifold with 50mm external wastegate, stock cams, greddy intake manifold, Q45 throttle body, 3" intercooler piping/cooler. engine is also running 9.3:1 compression that might help a little.

Hmmm ok it's starting to make sense now, I'm running stock Neo exhaust mani and intake. 2 1/4" inter cooler piping. 3" intake. 2.5"Vband straight onto 3" dump and its internally wastegated.

I might fit my ex cam gear and pretension the waste gate a touch more. that Comp ratio would have a damn big effect too.

Cheers guys!!!

Hey, I got a Rb30/25 with a GT3576 and even on the 30 it still takes till 4500rpm to hit 18psi. sooo a 3582 on a Rb25 is deffinitly going to be slower.

Chris, you can't compare your turbo to a real GT35R. Have a look at Titans' GT35R'd 3L, that's what should be happening and mine should be pretty well the same :)

supprisingly docile. my missus car.gt35/.63 rb25. 252 ponams and a haltec made 340kw on 22 psi. was really boring to drive. no big rush just a smooth delivery. with quite abit of lag between gears.

(the t04z thats on there now has less lag between gears.)

made full boost just before 3500. but slowly. not nothing then 22 pound. it built gradualy from 2.5k

    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
