No, Not true, Lt12s is newer than the Ltx12, only real difference is the lt12 doesnt have inbuilt ignitors where the ltx does, just means you will need to use the standard rb20 ignitor or an x6 box.

What have you modded to fit the cams? BTW they arent drop in.

i bought a worked engine and i have an a4 page of stuff done to it, not to keen on posting as i dont want to type it out, is there anything in particular that you want to know???.

i have spoken to the tuner again and he said an lt12s with x6 box is fine but i should buy coils as the stardard coils are not the best way of going about it, im not sure about that there seems to be a lot of people running standard coils

You need a new tuner.

yeah tell me about it i think he just wants me to give him more money, so what do you reckon use lt12s and x6 box to run my rb20 with rb26 cams, and not worry about the standard coils as they will be fine. or should i go in another direction???

Just use the standard ignitor, I am on an rb25 and its fine.

i see you are on the coast, go see Matty Spry at PITS or Gavin wood

cool, i can get an lt12s for cheap as with a plug n play loom, if i can use the standard igniter and coils this will be great, i am on the coast and can i grab this guys number. so the fact that i have different cams (rb26 ones) in my rb20 doesn't mean i have to get the crazy ignition set up. Cheers, Jonno.

Are you running solid lfters, because gtr cams dont work with rb20 hydraulic lifters.

      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?

      Intro/R33 owner

      By f00stx · Posted

      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).

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.

      I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
